AppleCandy, 28 Mar 2013Which phone should I buy: Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 or S Duos? Please help me! T the ace 2 performance speed is about 1.6ghz, gpu is mali 400, and display 3.8" and the S7562 duos is 1ghz, gpu adreno 200, but 4" display, ICS out of the box and 2 sims, it's hard to choose between. Personally I would buy the galaxy S3 second generation, but to help you answer your question I would buy the Ace 2, it has bigger processor and gpu, slightly smaller screen and no ICS but may get JB soon.( but if you urgely need the 2 line swapping convenience and no as great overall processing go for the S7562 duos) God bless you.

          I had asked Samsung at my place, they said that they didn't receive the Jelly Bean. When I found there was a Jelly Bean leak update, in order to know myself, I tried it. Well, first time, it running smoothly then next it began show some lags. I am satisfied enough with Jelly Bean with many lags, it's OK. I like its display. If one day I experience many bugs than I expected, I will go back ti Gingerbread.
          :-)

                  I'm tired to try which is the best leaked JB for my Ace 2, but non of them can satisfied me, to much bugs and lags every time. now I'm go back to the official GB, flashing it again. very disappointed and waste my time :(. and I just really really hope that Samsung promptly provide to us their official JB updates for our Ace 2.

                  I heard that next april the Official JB updates will be rolled for our Ace 2 :)
                  but Since i got no proof of that information or the actual source of the tip, you'd do well to take this with more than a pinch of salt (GSMArena mode ON) :))

                    Hey!! does someone know how many multitouch possitions it has'? Please!! I need help, I read that ace 2 has only two multitouch positions, (we can only use two fingers simultaneously), its that true?? (if you have ace 2 test with how many fingers can you play in ''fruit ninja'') I thought It had like four positions, I want to decide between Xperia U or GalaxAce 2
                    Thanks!!

                      AnonD-77318, 26 Mar 2013Samsung official updates has more better then the leaked updates. no bugs at all. Hopely, but we don't know when they will give official Jelly Bean, added, each country will receive official Jelly Bean not the same on the date and maybe there will be not receive Jelly Bean.

                            Upgrade software doesn't always make the smartphone that we have looks better Sony Ericsson Xperia mini, upgrade d to ICS, experienced some lags although its RAM allocation was better on ICS. Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 too, experienced the same lag after I upgraded to official leak Jelly Bean.

                            Well, for interface, I like Jelly Bean in display and its menus. Easy to organized, added some ringtones and of course support for Chrome. For the official update from Samsung is still in question mark, this month, April, or nothing? We just can wait.

                            This is my opinion and what I had experienced on.

                                    ace2, 25 Mar 2013My ACE 2 has 4 giga !?!?!? I see only 1.2 giga......or i see 1.2 g usb memory(i dont know what... more4 GB is the total (theory), in fact we don't receive 4 GB internal memory. Some has been allocated to the system, 1,1 GB system storage is meant to internal memory. 1,2 GB USB storage seems like internal memory too but named SD card. I am not sure too.

                                    If we install ES File Explorer, it will shows all USB storage folders (running Jelly Bean) even we instert micro SD (in Gingerbread, it will show all folders USB storage and external microSD folder. Folder external microSD contains all files on microSD card). It's different with Sony Ericsson Xperia mini (in Gingerbread or ICS), it shows all folders on micro SD card in ES File Explorer. That's why Sony Ericsson Xperia mini, if go to Setting>Manage application, look on SD card section, it shows my used and my free of micro SD card. While on Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 in the same section, it shows free and used USB storage that has 1,2 GB in total (not allocation of micro SD card).

                                    If we install Android game that has data cache, say 200 MB, the data cache should be placed on USB storage, on the specified folder. I had tried put it in folder external SD card (micro SD) in the same specified folder too, the game couldn't be played. Sony Ericsson Xperia mini could do this (put the data cache on microSD card to the specified folder).

HELP MEMy Galaxy Ace 2 is fine running on Jelly Bean official leak. The total RAM increased (624 MB). The effect that maybe you will face is all files that you had donwloaded and installed will be deleted (like do factory reset), data on microSD is safe. I experienced this effect after install Jelly Bean.

                                      The Polaris Office (editor) preinstalled and Task Manager will be deleted too. You will not find them in menu-menu display.
