^^ Apart from display and GPU i see no difference.

Low light photography is poor.

Seems overpriced when compared to Burst

And Almost 0 Community support

^^ Whats the price BTW?

189$ or something

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ Too much. Better get 2 Pantech Burst and gift it o your girlfriend.

Posted images taken using Camera ICS App and Stock Camera App. It seems that Camera ICS App is capturing much more details than stock app, but both failed at low light. But still camera was never my main usage so i am happy with what i got.

I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase so far. It's certainly a step up from my galaxy sl and xperia mini pro. There's a minor imperfection on the screen (white spot of shame) but you learn to live with it. Never hangs, battery lasts at least one working day (home to office and back) and it handles pretty much everything I throw at it.

Post a picture of it. Even i had the same issue and seller replaced it with new one.

BTW I also had Galaxy SL before this one and my wife have an Xperia Mini Pro. What a coincidence?

 

[Kl@w-24]

Yeah, looks like we're following the same phone path. Let me know when you decide on an upgrade; chances are, I would have picked the same device.

Here you go, the white spot should be visible.

 

[pratyush997]

That pic seems all good... how about a snap?

 

[furious_gamer]

Yeah i was asking him to take a snap of phone screen with white spot visible(Use SketchPad or similar apps with white background so it will be clearly visible) using another phone or DSLR if possible

 

[Kl@w-24]

Okay, one more try.

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ Taking a screenshot won't help because the problem is in the LCD. So the person who hold the phone can see it. So please post pic of it taken from another mobile with white background.

Alright, will do that as soon as I can. Don't think I can get it replaced, too much of a hassle.

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ BTW If you bought from seller from india, you can get it replaced. I replaced mine and seller confirmed it is LCD fault with Burst with new batch of phones. Older batches never had this issue.

 

[Kl@w-24]

^ I'm out of luck then. I ordered it from ishop.

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ Yep buddy, out of luck. Even if seller agrees to replace, you need to send it back and after their side of testing done, they need to ship it. Which will easily take around a month or two. So you have to live with that. But it's not much of an issue IIRC

 

[Kl@w-24]

^ Yeah, it doesn't bother me during regular usage. Maybe in the near future someone will find out a hack to fix it.
