That is some nice efforts there. BTW DTS format is not supported and mentioned in the specs.
Yes, of course. Especially pricing is reasonable.

Not supported by the player. I came across a thread where it had some codecs for MX Player which would enable DTS playback, unfortunately i cannot get them to work

^^ Well , i tried some codecs with MXPlayer, and it doesn't seem to work either. But since DTS format is not my sister's main issue, i left it there.

I know "DTS playback" seems like advanced technical jargon, but i mentioned it because many videos available 'online' have DTS audio, it sukcs if we are unable to play those videos on our mobile without sound.
I tried using Custom Codecs from MX Player again, this time i observed some videos played with audio, but others didn't.
VLC plays all video with sound, but playback is choppy, if the final release runs fine on L9, i won't have any complaints

^^ lol. I tried some videos taken from my uncle's camcorder, which is DTS format, and it was not playing with MX Player, but VLC plays, but hiccups all over the playback time. May be try with some other video player/codec and see if it works.

Nice and Non-Biased Review , Good.
Btw , do you think its better to go with Optimus L9 rather SGS Grand , if willing to spend ~22k ???
Camera and Office work is a priority. Have to recommend it to a friend of mine.
I am confused , as for camera SGS Grand seems better but as Display and resolution is also concerned , there L9 wins by fair margin. Wondering !!!

L9 is best option and is priced around 19k. SGS Grand comes with bad display & resolution for mid-range phone. So better suggest him to get L9, tweak some camera settings(I used Camera ICS from Play store and getting good result now) and it is good to go. For office work, L9(better screen, no lag UI) is better compared to SGS Grand.

I was wondering why Samsung used a Broadcom Processor instead of anything else[to reduce cost ? Maybe]. Have no idea , how these BC processors are. SO , am also avoiding this suggestion.
I suggested him L9 , but if there's any better option than L9 at ~22k , it would be good.

^^ But then they are all priced around 23k(for Xperia P) 25k(for SL, SII).
BTW, if he can increase budget a little bit, S II is a good option IMO.

Oops, added it to 25k+ category. But SII is overpriced IMO, even after numerous competitors comes into picture, Samsung is till adamant in reducing prices to reasonable level.

Instead of Grand, pick One S.

^^ I read a lot of bad reviews about One S. So i would not suggest One S.
