I'm new to this thread since I just got my Samsung Galaxy W i8150 around 2 days ago. It's a really great phone, and I really recommend anyone else that is hesitating of buying it, to get it smile.gif

I'm not that professional in this rooting & installing custom ROM section. Normally my brother would help me do these stuff. So, I don't want to do it. Plus, only 2 days I bought the phone. Kinda worried , haha

ya but dono why ACE price still high rm7xx  hmm.gif
ICS maybe??

Yeah, I also think the same thing. Actually, at first I wanted to buy Ace because of my budget and the specs were in the average category. But then I was browsing SAMSUNG website then came across Galaxy W and I was like 'woah, so much difference for just RM200'. So, I got the Galaxy W instead biggrin.gif

Hi I am considering W and S Plus which is RM 400 more.

S Plus - bigger screen easier to type and view things on screen. Tho is has AMOLED screen but W screen seems sharper and brighter. Bad is Touch Wiz 3.0 not so nice compared to 4.0 and then no flash for camera.

W - Smaller and nice to hold but scared of call quality as seems many members complained of that and lower memory on board which makes it restricted if we don't root the phone.

If compare to W, advantage is bigger screen but if compared to iPhone, then W is bigger. Going to get my set this weekend but still decision not made up, W or S Plus? Any advice guys? Thanks a lot!

Nah, I'm using GO Launcher EX but ADW should perform just as well.

Got ever feel lag before? Because I using ADW Launcher for my Galaxy Tab P1000 and sometimes when scrolling through my home screen or app drawer, will lag. So I'm worried that same thing happens for my Galaxy W sad.gif

Lag? Not any noticeable, but there are slight slow downs. It's more apparent on my ace.

Slow downs? If possible, could you please explain in more detail? I'm a little confused blush.gif

Is the screen size comfortable for typing SMS?

Yeah, it's comfortable. At first you might feel the screen is small to type, but once you use it for a few days then your fingers will get used to it smile.gif

I use ADW Launcher. I've never tried GO Launcher EX before though. So, I don't know ADW or GO is better. Surprisingly my Galaxy Tab P1000 lags when using ADW Launcher but my Galaxy W i8150 doesn't.

Yes, Regina 3D Launcher is sloppy. It's not that good. It's not as good as GO Launcher EX or ADW Launcher.

not really. only some games they have background services runnning.
Those games might cause lag as some ram is used by them.
For example, my SGW install "My Country", when I check background process and services,
got one "my country" runnning and ate around 2-3mb. LOL
it's a games like sim city, so it run to calculate the times for collecting profit and upgrade building, I guess.

Oh, okay. Thanks for the info man biggrin.gif Umm, you know any HD Games ? I really wanna install good games on my device but have no idea what games sad.gif
