Hi Guys,

I m in process of buying a phone. I have decided to go for Android. I have narrowed my options in this order.

1. Samsung Galaxy 3,
2. SE X8
3. SamsunGalaxy Spica

Wat I wud like to know is ,

1. Is 5801 a good enough? How much WQVGA resolution will be a problem?
2. Will X8 be better than 5801? It has better Reso, Video Recording, but lacks a few features out of the box like video playback support, swype etc.

OR Will Spica with Mods will be a better choice?( lake of FM is problem though).

donot go for galaxy 3

though its touchscreen is capacitive but its resolution is very very bad

havent read revuews about X8

Spica will be good but it not available everywhere

whats your max budget and where are you located ?

Did you consider the Spice Mi 300? At 9999Rs its seems like a good phone loaded with everything including a 3.2” 480 x 320 display.
Most of the shops have the phone in stock but no one seems to have an open box for demos :P

X8 is more expensive than your budget

One official SE release quoted it at 200 Euro. So, It should be around 12K. (If x10mini is at 15K, i am not sure if X8 would be 12K).

Wildfire is more expensive and has worse resolution.

Spice mi 300 is Android 2.1 ready. What does it mean? Doesn't every android phone 2.1 ready? I am also sceptical about future android upgrades by spice.

The listing is like this for a long time. The phone has not even been launched yet. But it should end up similar to X10 mini pricing.

If pricing is about 15K, then for me two choices remain. 1. Galaxy 3 2. Spica.

Is galaxy 3 that bad that it shouldn't be considered at all?
