QUOTE(sitescope @ Apr 6 2014, 01:06 PM) Couldn't google this ROM... Link pls... The VIBEROM_V1.0_2407_2_ST_S650 come with S650 (AP) from satugadget, so I don't have the link. I just wonder if any of you guys manage to flash standard Malaysian ROM (ROW) to replace this VIBEROM_V1.0_2407_2_ST_S650. Thank you in advance.

Lucky U. The WiFi is so damn poor compared to my Lenovo A850. Hell, even my old Xperia do better. Make me think twice about getting the newer S660, as the hardware is basically the same as S650, apart from the bigger battery.

Tested the s650 in Lowyat Plaza.. Overall ok but front camera too low resolution. If u use front camera this is not the phone for you, but if you don't use it, the overall a good budget phone.

EVER!!! Sun battery (among others) is one of those bogus claim battery, based on me and my friends personal experience. Moral of the story, to be absolutely safe, stick with original battery.

QUOTE(ck_boon @ Apr 8 2014, 04:50 PM) Viberom got some chinese character here and there even after u switch to english. ROW don't. As for the advice that you requested. I would say if you don't mind a slightly weaker wifi (compared to A850) then by all means, go for S650, because the phone is such a great phone for its price. No other phone (that I can think of right now) can even come close.
