Performance is good compared to the original P6800 model, I know because I own both models.
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify for everyone... the SC-01E is a tablet and not a phone. It's only a phone via Viber or any other internet voice call apps.
Well if you mange to get voice call over your local Telco. please let me know how you did it :) Then it'll be similar to the first generation Galaxy P1000 (a phone but without a phone ear piece)
