smile.gif count me in black, bought on 4/3/11.

wanna share my first experience buying a 'smartphone'.

my wife using iphone 3gs for the last 4 month. n i'm used to playing with it. but decided to go for an android as its customisable (yeah! im guilty to be the tech freak smile.gif).

first introduce to o1 in end of jan and doing some research on it ever since wit intention to buy one soon until the night of 2/3/11. accidentally clicked on a link comparing o1 wit this ace smile.gif n my first impression is 'wow!! nice iphone like'. however my heart still wit o1 as there's so much tweak tips cud be found in the net.

until the shopping day came. cant found o1 anywhere near my place (im not the type who like to travel far). instead this one shop showing me her last ace stock and its the first time i saw it wit my own eyes. i know its kinda rush decision but i agreed to bought it for rm960 (coz by the time i'm testing the phone which is the only one left around, theres this only fellow asking to buy one as well). btw, i almost missed the 2gb sdcard which shud come wit is, as the seller somehow dunno there shud be one in it. instead he said the phone comes wit 2gb internal. but after he check wit his partner he giveup n give me one. lucky me i do my homework.

love it so far as it is my first smartphone. theres always something to do with it smile.gif

as for performance wise, cant say much as this is my first smartphone/android. one thing for sure i like mine more compared to my wife 3gs smile.gif

battery life:
just found out i shud charge it until this little blue icon pops up in the left hand side on the status bar. then i cud get the 12+ (unplug it in the morning n by midnite +-20% juice left) with emails, games, wireless, browsing + calls n smses ...
not yet test max life wit calls n smses only. as a newbie, its darn to hard to stop playing wit it smile.gif

** prep myself for next step -> rooting. still much to consider tho. do i really need it? for time being maybe just go wit rd33 solution on intalling apps on sd first to free up some internal storage.
