Yep, battery is an issue if 3G is on all the time. I decided to invest in an battery saving app (USD 0.99 or 1.99) which helped a lot. Previously my batt can only last from 8am to 5pm now it can go on for about 1.5 days.

The other problem you might have to contend with the phone is the occassional hang/lag - but I encounter this with all smartphones anyway. Slightly more in Android phones (compared to iPhone & Windows phone).

Overall I still like the phone - OS is good, App store is cheaper than iOS and the size is perfect. Minus the problems above I mentioned. Hopefully when the Jelly Bean update comes around it will be better.

battery drain coz of her apps.. teach her about running apps in the background... and if she's an avid user of social games in that phone, can only suggest battery pack...

I`ve sent my S-adv to service center due to vibration hardware problem. haha, harap bukan sebab termasuk air. haha

Mine, 3G on all time can stand 9 hours
Wifi on all time can stand 30 hours

Which battery saving apps did u use? I think ur apps is worthy.. Mind to share

I'm currently using Battery 2x (extend life) + Advanced Task Manager (reduce lag + extend a bit of life).

There are a lot out there. I recommend you try the free ones first, then if suitable go ahead and update to the pro version.

Hmm sorry can't help you here as I'm not familiar with the use of the blackmarket. I downloaded from Google Play.
