HI^^, I'm from Philippines and i just want to share my experience with my Grand2 and its awesome and its fast for me, And now i just got a Software Update thru Wifi this Aug.12,2014 at around 2am and after installing it i notice its faster and no problems at all the File size was 384.74mb on Wifi Software Update here in the Philippines... Before when it was in Jellybean 4.3 it heats but not that hot but now after i update it to kitkat it has lesser heat or no heat at all now even if im playing games like Kritika:Chaos Unleash Game for hours of Gameplay and the battery life seems last longer now in Kitkat update...THanks Samsung Philippines for Putting a Kitkat Update on Grand2 here in the Philippines and hope u update Grand2 for more future android updates to come... Thanks^^.

                koolgia, 08 Aug 2014i bought this phone two months ago.. so far my experience is good with this grand 2. it doesn'... moreI am from Pakistan and also using Grand 2. Check your Charger if its 2A (Ampere) then change it and get 1A (Ampere) charger I also had this issue I changed my 2A charger from 1A and now its working perfectly fine.

                  Just bought my Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 a week ago all bad reviews are shocking because its working smooth for me, no heat up, very good battery life, no hanging, camera is good too, screen resolution is superb, so avoid all negative reviews and go for it. Still waiting for Android 4.4.2 KitKat update in Pakistan. #HonestReview

                      I am using grand 2 since jan 2014. 8 months, no problem at all.
                      Point is, You have to be enough smart to use smartphone.
                      This phone is one of the awesomest product within budget of 20k,however I bought it in 23k for development purpose.

                      Upgrade to Kitkat version via Kies or OTA, its not giving any problems mentioned below by many not-so-smart people.

                      Its working like charm, no lagging, no heating.. Working smoothly.

                      For brainy people, I would suggest you to root after updating to kitkat version.. Root by CWM recovery (CLOCK WORK MOD). Simply search google or send me email. Psingh2110 @ gmail. Com

                      After rooting grand 2,you will be able to increase phone's internal memory by partition of SD card. You can install 1000's of apps or even more if you want. Moreover You can play 100's of heavy games like NFS, Asphalt, Modern combat, dead trigger, Spider-Man and many more like this.
                      Rooting can help you to boost your battery life to double, means if your phone runs 12hours,after root it can easily run for 22-24 hours.

                      Overall its a amazing phone to buy. I Strongly suggest.
                      Otherwise go for Nexus 5 (32gb version) if you can afford 25k-30k.. Don't rely on Micromax, lava, intex, Geoni elife.. n all those cheap phones.

                                  Finally got the Kitkat upgrade here in the Philippines. Battery doesn't drain too fast unlike with JB before. I just have one BIG problem. After updating to Kitkat, it won't connect to my Mobile data. I do receive sms and calls but not to Mobile Data. Anyone from the philippines that has this experience.
