September 2013? With only MSM8625?
CSL got to be kidding right?

No, seriously. You should've been given a commendation.

Well, it is the MSM8625QA, which is the upgraded model, and it is going to cost around RM799-999 only, so I guesd it's still ok for budget user.

Actually, I just realised that the Mercury uses the Upgraded version of MSM8225, The MSM8225A.

maybe i am to be blamed on causing the flaming on the ninetology phone. it would be better to move us back and discuss the mercury.

No, it's not your fault. Ninetology was just really silly.

Yes, buy Mercury now, then when new phone comes out, I sell my phone to cousins or friends, and top up to get a new one.

That's what make me wonder.

someone from xda was able to root the mercury. do refer to the below link

Sad thing is, China phone doesn't exactly have good resale value.

Screen is not anti scratch, but I have dropped the Mercury once just after finishing a call, and the phone hit the stone pavement. Thought it was done for, but thankfuly, there wasn't a scratch on the screen, and the phone functioned just fine. It held up quite well, to tell you the truth. And the back cover is immune to scratches and fingerprints.

Other than the cheap galaxy note clones, it's practically impossible to find a phone with specs like the Mercury at the same price.

Added on December 4, 2012, 3:21 pmA is significantly more powerful than the one with out A. The one's with A also get some other extra features like the ability to do HD video playback, but they didn't implement it in the Mercury.

looking forward for the existing user to give it a try to root the phone.

i am planning to do so if i able to get the phone soon.

Hope someone makes a custom rom soon.

rooting is the first step which to explore more on the phone with administrative authority to free up the phone performance.

since the current rom is considered stable, i wont alter any unless really into the jellybean.

I suddenly have the urge to overclock my phone.

over clock will drain the batt faster le..

since the phone worked smooth, why bother to overclock it?

You have official link to back that up? I can't seem to find info about it. If it is indeed significantly more powerful, I bet they will have news all over the net. No offence bro, just want to read the info.

Last time the A doesn't mean that much, I would like to see otherwise.
