New Smartfren Andromax U2 - review

I'm back.. using blogger application for android. It's much more easier now to update my blog. Hoho.
I've just bought a new android phone for 24 hour now. It's called Smartfren andromax U2. It's a smartphone produced by the operator smartfren and an improvement from andromax U.

As a cheap smartphone made in china, this is really worth something. The touch screen is great, sensitive and satisfying. It's quite easy to type with it. Each letter is separated really well so touching wrong letter is minimized.

With 1Gb of ram and quad core processor, it performs well and isn't slow. The internal storage is 4gb, allows you to download several good apps like games or socmed. It uses Android 4.1.2, not the newest but good enough. Differences from its predecessor are the quality of speaker, which already dolby digital plus, and the size of screen that slightly bigger.
My problem with this phone is the camera. With 8Mb back camera and 2Mb front camera, there shouldn't be a problem. But there is. The camera take photo slowly. You have to hold about 1-2 seconds until the photo's taken. It's a problem for me because what if i wanna take a selfie or fast moving event? Hold it for second(s) obviously disturbing. Other problem is that you can't turn off the shutter sound. (But I've found the solution for this problem. I'll explain it later below.)
