  5. a898 still got the crown with a bit more features than a848i, but a848i has a bit nice resolution than a898, but 4.3 is the best screen size for 800x480 resolution its like the galaxy s2.. i suggest go for a898.. if u really dont have money, a848i is also good, and still same speed as a898,


    i think myphone will reduce the srp price of a848i... if the promo ends, they will rather choose a898 than a848 with same price..

  10. i think lamang ang A848i pagdating sa sensor, meron kac syang gyroscope along with the accelerometer, unlike A898 na accelerometer lang. ^_^ wala na mention sa table of pros & cons ang gyroscope. :D
