I haven't own any android phone yet. I am a super poor person and my budget only allow me to buy Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 Android Phone. Any phones expensive than that phone are ALL NOT AFFORDABLE.

I need to use Flash Player as I frequently access flash based website. But, Adobe Flash Player for mobile require a phone with VGA (640 x 480) resolution. The phone I stated above does not meet the requirement.

As I said above, my budget only allow me to buy Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 and any other phones expensive than that are not affordable. So, tell me what can I do?

And, to Adobe, why don't you consider making a version for super low-end budget android phone like the one I stated above? Please consider doing something for users with very limited budget. I am sure there are a lot of demands there.

Regards,

    Hi, I understand what you have explained but Adobe Flash Player can only be available on those phones that are able to run Flash Player. Google owns the Operating System of the Android phones and they decide which phones will support Flash Player and then the Manufacturer produces the phones for Google.

    The phone Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 (Android) is not on the list

    Just like Microsoft came out with IE9, but I can't use it since it won't work on XP 

    You are smart in trying to find out before you buy a phone that can't use Flash Player:-)

    Do you live in the United States? If not, the Country you live in may have different phones and requirements too.

    This is a list of the Phones that you can look at, then go to the websites to read about other phones and their prices.

    I hope this information is helpful. Prices are different also in other Countries than here in the U.S.
