mini 2 is Tipo's competitor and tell me in what way is mini 2 better?
mini 2 running GB vs Tipo running ICS.
Well, since you prefer GB I've got nothing to say...

I really would love to see this in the name of "Sony xperia Y". It's a great competitor for Galaxy Y series. :))

SIMPLY BEUatiful sony! Designs are always the best. WOULD LOVE MORE IF SONY MAKES A PLAYSTATION CERTIFIED NEXUS PHONE.

Looks very promising to me. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a budget Android smartphone. The design is quite outstanding for this class of device, not to mention ICS right out of the box.

Tipo will blow all low-end Androids out of the water with ICS simply because other manufacturers still launch low-enders with GB with no plans to upgrade to ICS.
Besides, Tipo looks beautiful for a low-end phone

can it play flash? PA's specs sheet doesn't say if the browser supports adobe flash.. but from the looks of its processor and RAM, i think it could--i hope it would. coz back in the GB days, entry-level meant no-flash. i hope this will not be the case in ICS...

Miro has the same cpu and ram and supports flash so i think it will. the samsung galaxy mini2 also a low-ender with the same hardware supports flash..
