advantages over Samsung Galaxy Y:

1) bigger screen of 3.2" (Galaxy Y only has 3.0")
2) higher screen resolution of 320X480 pixels HVGA resolution (Galaxy Y only has 240X320 pixels)
2) higher SD card capacity of 32GB (some Galaxy Y units only have 16GB)
3) dual-active standby SIM card capability (Galaxy is not dual-active SIM, you have to buy the DOUS version for additional 2k)
4) higher screen pixel density of 165ppi (Galaxy Y only has 133ppi)
5) higher resolution camera of 3.2 Megapixels (Galaxy Y only has 2.0 Megapixels)
6) front-facing VGA camera (Galaxy Y has no front-facing camera, so no Skype video calls)
7) NFC-ready (Near-Field Communication just like a credit card swiping/tapping) (Galaxy Y is not NFC-ready)
higher capacity battery of 1300Mah (Galaxy Y only has 1200Mah)
9) matte rubber and steel finish, the phone feels like a high-end smartphone (Galaxy Y only has a 100% plastic body)
10) comes with a free OEM screen protector inside, this means a lot because this accessory can easily cost Php300-500 in stores (Galaxy Y doesn't come with an OEM screen protector)

all for the identical price of Php 5,999

negative things i've observed so far:

1) annoying iya google search key (touch-sensitive key) kay duol ra sa screen.. kung mu swipe down ka dako kaayo ug chance maigo ang key

2) iyang lanyard eyelet kay hook lang.. medyo mahadlok ko basin maputol in the long run.. mao ga case nalang ko imbis lanyard

3) ang 2nd SIM slot is up to 2G lang.. ang 1st SIM slot lang ang pwede maka 3G/2G at the same time

4) gamay lang ug internal memory (170MB).. dapat ibalhin nimo tanan apps sa SD card para dili mapuno ang memory.. ang problema sa android dili tanan apps pwede mabalhin sa SD card kelangan root access.. so muabot ra jud ang time nga dili naka maka download ug apps kay puno na ang internal memory.. not unless you want to root your device immediately, which can void warranty

5) don't expect good things from the camera.. again, this is only an entry-level Droid

initial positive observation so far:

1) it feels solid and looks solid.. high-end ang feel sa unit tungod sa steel alloy nga body ug rubber matte nga casing.. dili slippery, grippy kaayo mutapot jud sa imong kamot gamay ra chance nga matagak.. ang iya build-quality ma compare nako sa mga high-end nga HTC phones.. dili jud sya plastic tan-awon.

2) no death-grip issues.. bisan tabunan nimo ang antenna area sa imong kamot, dili ka maka experience nga mubaba ang signal or 3G/Wifi connection.. not unlike sa uban phones nga mahikapan ra ang antenna, mawala ang signal/connection..

3) very responsive touchscreen.. bisan naay screen protector sensitive ra gihapon.. no need to tap hard sa screen kay gamay touch mu register jud sya

4) long battery life.. kung occasional 3G/wifi lang, dayon normal texting and calling, it can last you more than a day

5) fast charging time.. in less than 3 hours it can go from 0% to 100% fully charged

6) portable charger.. cute kaayo sya ug charger mabulsa ra actually.. + points for portability

7) nice body size.. sakto ra jud sya.. dili gamay dili pud kaayo dako dili gaan dili pud kaayo bug-at.. ingon sila 3.2" screen man jud daw ang ideal size sa smartphone
