This phone can be upgraded to froyo and gingerbread. Froyo runs well without any problem. But in gingerbread update lot of problem exist such as one way voice call, no androidmarket, gmail app, small font.
No flash support in this phone.
Camera needs to be improved spec. when lights are low.
Try to use another OS pack, I have upgraded to 2.2 too and I can sign-in into Gmail. I have download lots and lots of app from the market.
this phone is really bad. the processor is worse than those in the low-end samsung models, so it's slow. build quality is also an issue, the whole phone is made out of plastic and you can never get the screen 100% clean.
Is is allow to play Facebook video?
