I dont think thatz an Issue as almost all online retailers have it

http://www.smartprix.com/mobiles/lg_optimus_2x_p990-m159.php

And it will take me about 1/2 - 1month to arrange cash so i think till tat time it will b out totally so ... is Optimus Black good enuf or Galaxy R ?? I really loved the look and the disply of Optimus black (more than the galaxy r and secondly ebay ppl sellin galaxy r for 19k with manufacturer warranty so if i get Galaxy R fr 19k sumwhr then fine else i think Optimus black is a good option)

Any1 frm mumbai know the price of Galaxy R at Alfa ???

One more doubt has any1's SE Neo V Fallen frm thier hands just wanted to knw coz this happens to me very often hence dont wanna take a delicate phone which will crack in 1 fall .... i hav had Samsung Wave 525 it fell off a lot of time but the screen was intact without any issues !!! Also the touch was a little reduced but still i was used to it so not an issue

Go for the 2x or SGR. 2x is a no-brainer if you want Gorilla Glass and want to upgrade to latest versions of Android months before official update, use blazing fast custom ROMs, etc. I am already on ICS on my 2x and i love it
<
.

About whether its display will crack on dropping it, I dont think anyone is brave enough to try
<


Price of SGR at Alfa was ~21k a month or so ago.

Just to mention a few things about the battery life on the DHD, since that was being discussed. The DHD had horrible battery life on Froyo, which went up nicely when upgraded to Gingerbread. With the ICS port that's available on XDA for the DHD, the battery life is super awesome (for a phone with this display). To give an idea, with the usage being 24 hour push mail on WiFi, 5 minutes of calls a day, no SMS, the occasional 3 - 5 pics a day, checking news and rss apps for around 30 minutes a day, the battery life used to be 25 hours on Froyo, 36 - 37 hours on Gingerbread, and now upto 45 hours on the ICS.

Those very well could be second hand phones, do check for any physical irregularities. Personally I would not risk 24k on the word of a shop keeper.

The current SGSII present in India is the G version with an inferior OMAP 4430 and SGX540 compared to the more powerful Exynos and Mali400 in the original version.

Check flipkart. It says original one with Exynos is discontinued and only has the OMAP one.

Check the Atrix 2.

http://www.ebay.in/itm/Motorola-Atrix-2-DoW-offer-Rs-23350-00-/270930585676?pt=IN_Mobile_Phones&hash=item3f14b8a84c#ht_2491wt_1139

Ebay has sent out 10% coupon without any upper limit this week to a few accounts.

So with that you can get this one for ~20.6k (Listed price ~22.9k)
