Suggest phone for multimedia for around 10K

[dennis_nail]

Since my old phone seems to be ageing and having issues regarding frequent shutdowns and calling, I want to take that as an excuse and get a new phone. The requirements are as follows:

* Main use will be for multimedia (more of audio rather than video) and camera. Decent to good camera is required.

* Open to Symbian^3, Android, WP7, but will not really prefer Bada. Want to keep options for Apps open. Have used Symbian and Android in the past.

* Screen size and resolution: bigger the better Capactive touchscreen

* Budget is 10K. May increase it by another 2K for really good deal.

What are my best options?

Try searching for Moto Defy (Not+ since its ~15k) ... Should cost you around 12k ... See this if you trust Micromax : http://www.ebay.in/itm/BRAND-NEW-SE...bile_Phones&hash=item20c0ed7712#ht_5007wt_758

Thanks for the reply. Defy is a good option, but seems to be out of stock everywhere. As for brands, I would prefer the main players only.

SONY ERICSSON.... is the way to go.. best for audio which you require.. the bundled earphones are way better than any other brand..

Here are some handsets you should consider:

1. Nokia 500.

2. Nokia Lumia 710 (available @sulekha for 13779 so a bit off budget.)

3. Optimus Net.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. Bought a Nokia 500, which was the VFM offering for my requirements. Can't wait to upgrade it to Belle.

Timtara.. hmm.. Pretty bad reputation in a very short time. And I wanted some replacement phone urgently, so couldn't wait even for flipkart. So got one locally.
