what is problem with nokia c3?? i was thinking of buying one once it is available in mumbai.

Consider the 7230, it looks really good, the camera is decent, very much a VFM phone.

@macchi12345 no problem with c3 only tht it's not available yet... and need to buy the phone around 1st week of July...

@orangewrath 7230 is better in features but overall i think 5233 is better cuz of all the apps and games available with it... besides it is 7230 is kinda "dull" as my bro says... so now i m between c3(if it launches), lg cookie pep or 5233...

the scales r tipping towards 5233... i just wanna know if thr r any other phones out thr fulfilling the needs...

5233 ftw !

Yes, 5233 FTW!! Though if you can invest around 1k more then you can go with Nokia 5230.. You'll get many additional features in this phone with just playing 1k extra than your budget..

AVOID 5233.

Go for 5230, it is future compatible - it has 3G and GPS. More VFM than the 5230. Also it costs marginally more than the 5233

+1 5230 is a better option ...

quite true ! well if you can wait for c3 it also looks as a nice option !

 

[stavan_d]

the budget i have posted is the max i can go for now... and neways no need for 3g or gps as my bro wont be needing those features... if 5230 has anything else (besides these features)tht's different from 5233 please let me knw...

i would wait for c3 if someone would give a fix date when it'll launch... the wifi is the feature which i m interested in...

 

[egobrain.exe]

go for 5230 .. rather than waiting for the C3 .. the phone has been making some noise in the market ..!! so .. i would opt for 5230 than waiting for C3 !!

samsung

howz samsung corby txt :ashamed:

 

[tech4pk]

based on my experience, nokia 5230 fits your bill...and it's the best VFM piece!!

 

[pradeep200417]

How about Nokia X2. That seems pretty god for the price of just 5k.

 

[stavan_d]

@pradeep200417: x2 is not available yet...

can some one tell me what r the box contents of 5233 and 5230 cuz as i figure 5233 has very basic package and does not even have a memory card or data cable...

the box contents given on the nokia india site all true??

and another query, which color looks better full black , white gray or white red...

 

[ankurshah]

Hmm Try THIS

or

THIS

I think you should buy LG Cookie.It is an nice phone.
