wala pang TR sa android meron lang ripoff ang panget pa ng graphics. di rin magwowork ang instagram kahit search mo sa market dahil below minimum na ang camera specs ng galaxy y.ive tried searching for instagram on the gfs fone pero ayaw lumabas. ive read somewhere na filtered na ng gplay yung mga apps na para sa phone eh.

^dami pa naman options dyan. posted fxcamera on the instagram thread eh. ganun din may filters etc. pero kung trip mo talaga mag instagram, hintay lang baka i-develop din nila for low specs.

ive posted my comments on another galaxy y thread. same pa din,

the pros: processor speed, smooth graphics, lightweight.
the cons: pixel density, all plastic, screen size, camera

the small size of the screen wont give justice to the apps and games that you could install in it. you can install moboplayer but watching movies or video clips in this fone is not advisable especially when youre on a trip, mahihilo ka lang sa liit ng screen. fruit ninja and angry birds ran smoothly when i installed it pero the screen again is so small tapos yung pixel density made the graphics bigger causing details to be lost.

as for the battery, mas ok sya compared sa iba. at full charge, you can have the wifi turned on all day at ang mawawala mo lang eh halos 50% ng battery - that includes surfing the net dahil power pa sa lcd at processor yun. compared to my optimus one, pagka on ng wifi at nag start na ko mag browse, 1 hour pa lang 30% na nawala lolz.

yup ok din ang battery niya. I surfed the net yesterday and so far wala pa'ng 50% ang nawala sa battery life ko and added to that I listened to music din. and yes, processor speed is great (at 832mhz). the screen doesn't really bother me but yes it's small kasi nasanay ako sa 3.5" screen ng ipod touch ko dati. but what annoyed me at first was the small qwerty keyboard kasi I have big fingers so I end up pressing the wrong keys pero ngayon parang nasanay na din ako. I don't think I'll be downloading a lot of apps on this phone though.

I also noticed that. if you don't have available wi-fi connections, your phone uses the network in connecting to the net. dati kasi nakakapunta ako ng google play site without wifi, un pala ung packet data gamit nya. good thing maliit lang ang prepaid load ko that time.

i suggest turn off your packet data kung di ka naman nagbobrowse.  kung hindi tuloy tuloy ang charge sau.
recent deals : diaboliche, numeroh_unoh, palmmuteboi, joeystratman, hardcore misery, gitarakista27,raizen26, karlwilson, bryansurvive, ayofish, shredmaestrobri, Opay21, jonathan_gonzales, varied_ventures, turiguilliano, alcoholicarl, egpogi, lickerz, etc.

yeah I turned it off and nag-reload ako, so far hindi na kinain yung load ko. that was the reason pala.

Yes ok naman siya for an average user. Wag nga lang masyadong lagyan ng mga apps and magmulti-task. Pag tapos na gawain sa isang app close na agad. Para hindi masyadong bumagal.

from techradar... 3/5 stars.
http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-y-1044978/review

from cnet uk... also 3/5 stars (users review)
http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-y-review-50005219/

i almost bought this smartphone, coz i don't really know what to do with a high-end spec-ed one.
but... some other new phones emerged... so i ditched the thought of this Y duos.

But... if you only plan to use smartphones for basic & immediate purposes & not an app-addict... then this Y duos should do for you.

BR & God bless
