Go for NOKIA 1280

Nothing much but good for battery. Your expectations are too high for the price you want to pay.

In other hand, go for iBall phones

You are looking out for an QWERTY. I would Suggest

Nokia X2-01



The phone is too good with Good battery life and Comes for Rs.3500.. But has poor 0.3mp Camera

Asha 200 would be Good for you and it has dual Sim option.

Battery Wise: X2-01.
