it can play some decently high range games but not extremely well, pretty good already..whatever games that xperia play can play - the SGW can play it too provided it isnt an xperia play exclusive.

I think camera quality is decent lo.

The 'lag' could be due to the lens focusing slowly

Normally most cameras take longer to focus under low light conditions due to the lenses used.

This is the exact quote from phonarena.com

And most cameras excluding DSLRs has something called shutter lag as well

i also faced low volume of ear piece.

But then again, it's just a phone camera. It's convenient but it'll never replace my point and shoot or DSLR.

some people actually asking a lot of this budget phone. they want it to be able to play high end games, camera must able to compare with decent point and shoot cameras (or even dslr), have excellent call quality, earpiece, cheap, longest warranty, strong body, APE glass..that's the problem.

typical of malaysians to want the cheapest yet best quality product..how can cheap + good quality go together? impossible.

iirc there's an in built photo editor right?

That's very true. Before asking what u can get, first ask urself how much u are paying.

Hey... Don't say until malaysian so no good la... That's bad. Why don't you think other way round. We have the budget, we want to utilize it. Compare phone by phone and see which one does the best within our budget. Nothing wrong right? They're just asking whether it can play those games, whether the camera quality is acceptable,... ... ... any prob with that? If you earn money easily and don't think all this make sense, you won't care. For ppl who earned their money with hard work, they must use it wisely and in the best way so that the expenditure worth all the pennies... I don't see a problem here. They ask, because they want the answer. Give them the answer, if it's not up to their expectation, they might lift budget for something else right? They're just trying to understand the potential of this phone for its price point. Seriously, you shouldn't judge this as typical malaysian. This is just a consumer behaviour that tried to fork out the best solution based on the thickness of their wallet.

Btw, living in malaysia, everything is kinda overpriced. Just compare locally, for the life quality we have now, what we pay for life I don't think is worth it. Tax here and there, salary still the same. Under this situation, how can we not compare and find the best before spending money.

Aiyor.. I think people are not demanding every best thing from this phone, but they're evaluating whether this phone suit their requirement and expectation or not
if it can't they will search for other phone or maybe compare between several phones and only finalize their decision

I'm editing my post in the front page to add in all the recommended sellers at the best prices... since TS seems to a bit slow :0

you're right saying that in malaysian pretty much everything is overpriced with our measly salaries, totally agree with you - but what i'm upset is seeing people wanting the SGW to perform or be on par with the SGS II - that's just rubbish. Its like asking myvi to perform just like a honda jazz..that's too much to expect out of a car - same goes for the phone - since its a budget phone with great specs all around, what more could you ask for? Something has to give like no gorilla glass and such..but i see many asking if can play super-high end games with the device...sure can play, no problem...but cannot expect it to perform like SGS II. There'a a reason why there's SGS II and there's a reason why SGW existed - for different market segments...

actually its a bad habit of us to expect a lot out of a cheap product although you could say that the RRP of 999 isn't "cheap" per se but still its cheaper than other offerings with similar or even lousier specs...its a huge step up of HTC's own wildfire S or even desire S to a certain extent..so I honestly dont know why people are still complaining on stuff like "the camera is laggy" or "the photo quality isn't that great"...what u expect out of budget phone? LOL...besides phones were never meant to have good quality cameras with its tiny lenses..

CyberKewl: bro.. m'sia citizen acted like this b'cos of those guys if u knw who i'm trying to said. ever since old ma > 不达 Wii > "LAI SHI TUN LAI CHAI". 1 m'sia is only 玩玩 nia. "u help me, i help u"

W currently r the best bang back for ppl wish 2 owning a new android. frankly speaking is not for those advanced user.

i wont say its not for advanced user - the SGW is a pretty good phone - if you want advanced stuff u can just root it and in time i'm sure many custom ROMs will pop up for sure especially CyanogenMod since the founder was hired by Samsung not too long ago...spec wise it beat my 1 year old Nexus One - the only thing that it lacks compared to my Nexus One is widespread support for custom ROMs and all things custom..but i'm sure that'll change in time since its a fairly new handset.

Anyway, lets not ask too much out of this baby...its not a superphone after all like the SGS II
