Please leave a review here. Although, now i'm not a Mercury user anymore. But i'll always stick to this thread. This thread is where i found CSL phone are reliable and awesome but due to manufacture problem?

Don't hold your breath too long bro, or rather put your hope too high. The GPU is not that great and it going to have to power the resolution of that high. In the end, something has to give. Anyway, it is indeed a good spec at a good price.

Anyway, it is indeed a good spec at a good price. agree. there has been a quite significant improvement (processing power) on mediatek's chip back from 6573, 6575 and current 6577. Sadly they still stick with the powervr sgx531 since 6573. as long as the resolution do not exceed 800x480 you'll be fine.

QUOTE(Cranky guy @ Dec 26 2012, 02:02 PM) LOL, the resolution is 1280x720. Should be fine  hopefully. the thing is, from what i saw myself: the BP2's nenamark 2 is around 27~28fps, while the Stealth2's score is 25~26fps. that's only like 54 extra vertical pixels (25,920 total px) makes about 2fps difference. both have the same spec: mt6577 1ghz dual core with powervr sgx531 gpu.

QUOTE(wkchia @ Dec 25 2012, 10:07 PM) Hi Cranky, u know whats the difference between Snapdragon MSM8625 and MSM8225? Both have the same clock speed range. The mercury is using msm8225. Whats the difference in performance in both snapdragons? the 2nd digit shows the radio type. 86 for US type radio and 82 for rest of the world. First digit is generation of Qualcomm's ARM, the last 2 are the model numbers.
