Dear all,
I need to buy a new phone. The main use of this phone would be the camera. This would be for my mother who maintains a blog and would like to upload her photos to it.
I was initially inclined towards the Nokia X2 but I have received poor reviews of the camera on it.:no:

Kindly suggest me a good phone

Thanking you in anticipation
 
Thank you for your reply compaddict.

The Elm is wayyy out of my budget at the moment.

Will settle for x2 at the moment and possibly upgrade in some months to an android :-)
 
Nokia X2 is the only phone under 5000 Rs. which has a 5 mega pixel camera. That is simply awesome as I could not find even a 3 mega pixel camera phone below 5000.
 
Personal opinion: I, and a couple of friends have all independently experimented with photoblogging. Here is the summary of our experiences: If you are serious about it consider investing 5k in a basic camera. These days you can get pretty neat point-and-shoot cams for 5k which are better than the most expensive camera phone in image quality and flexibility. Get a basic phone on top of that. cheap cam phones are simply not worth it if you're serious about taking photos.
 
Bought the X2 for 4350 (Delhi)

@MHG I would have gone for your suggestion. However, this is for my mother who would most definitely like a 'camera phone' :-)

Pictures clarity is good. However, like MHG said, it cannot be compared to a digicam.

Indoor pictures are grainy while bright outdoors can cause white bleed.

Thank you all for your kind help.

My mother is loving her new cellphone.
