IF u can stretch ur budget then go for dual core like optimus 2x or galaxy r (nearby 21k)or elseI wish to opt touch phone around 15k budget for my relative. He inclined towards Blackberry & HTC but flexible for others too....Like to have good touch surfing experience, speedy browsing and gaming are the main criteria for him.. Budget is stretchable...
dont even think about the blackberry..
no nokia.. because their symbion os sucks. . i mean literally sucks..
you will be much better off with a sony ericsson live wt19i.. for about 13K.. or the HTC wildire S, but i would prefer the sony anyday..
also one more thing, in sony ericsson you're gonna get the fastest processor than any other brand.. most other brands have a 1 ghz processor in this range, while sony has 1.4 ghz.. thats lot of difference.. plus even the RAM is more on the sony.
Dude SE Live with walkman have 1GHz procci, only Arc S has 1.4GHz processor !!
