I already own a Samsung Galaxy Ace but its battery life sucks. I want to use cell as WiFi hot-spot over 3G for approx 3 hours a day. Not in favor of keeping 2 devices either a decent cell or a portable external battery juice pack.

Main Points:
1. Battery life of at least a day (day for me is 6:00 to 23:00)
2. Good Community support so can receive future updates or can have software improvement for device
3. WiFi hot Spot over 3G

Need WiFi tethering for iPad.
Also considered Micromax MMX400R but reviews holding back from buying it like button response issue, can not check balance like one can do in phone. There are apps for data usage monitoring but i will be using it with iPad and Macbook Air so again cant keep proper track.
