Okay Anyone please don't give opinion just by reading few lines of post :P

I have a budget of 10-11K

I'm from a middle class family and can't buy every next phone if it gets some faults and I'll use atleast the phone i'll buy for 3-4 years aka durability + lifespam i want . I'm a tech freak and also want quality performance and battery backup . In few Days i'm gonna buy a phone . What i decided yet .

PANTECH BURST ----------------------- XPERIA U ----------------------------KARBONN A21

Pantech burst - I could have bought this phone till yet but the thing that makes my mind mad is the repair factor. If it got any faults Its likely unrepairable here in india . Another factor is that it should last 2-3 years , I know this can't be told hw much an electronic device will last but build quality ppl can judge like nokia devices lasts 4-5 years easily due to there quality hardware . samsung generally don't lasts much . So a pantech burst user can easily answer this question . Rest there's no reason i won't go with this phone .

Xperia U -- Its at 11K from Ebay . yes with 6 months of seller warranty . I didn't used any sony phone yet . I don't know there build quality aswell and can't rate them . The specs of that Xperia U satisfies my need but battery life suc*s from the core . I need some confirmation from a member here who has Xperia U . Please help .

Karbonn A21 - Its a chinese rebranded phone but still china has 2 type of quality availble . The money you'll pay they'll make that kinda phone for you. The build quality of karbonn is 6/10 according to me ( correct me if i'm wrong ) . But the reason i included this phone in list is because at least it can be repaired if it gets some fault from karbonn service center.

..................

I want the phone to last long . Or if it gets some fault they can be repaired . in pantech everything is fine but 10K is a lot money for me and its my first phone of that worth . and if screen gets damaged I'll not be able to get it repaired anywhere. moreover xperia battery sux from core . karbonn is chinese . Please suggest best you think for me . Ignoring what is best for you . Suggest best for me.
 
I think it's best to get Sola from ebay. You might have extend budget by another 1.5 - 2k. Sola should get official JB. Even if it doesn't, there will be good JB roms as it uses same soc as Xperia P
U will hit you badly storage.
A21 won't have quality to survive for 3 years.

Power sellers are quite trusted
 
OMG i couldn't sleep due to tension . BTW sola is better than pantech burst ?
In specs pantech burst is better. But you are worried about repair. Sola has descent dual core, RAM is on lower side but should be enough if you don't intend to play high end games.
