Well, if your keen on features, get the Nokia 6303 Classic else the SE G502 should do!

Err...The Nokia 6700C is beyond your budget.
Anyway, here goes :

- Same old S40 OS
- No Wi-Fi
- No Office document viewer
- No 3.5mm audio jack
- No video calling

I know the 6700C is beyond my budget but my dad might buy it. I guess I will go with the 6303C for myself. Anything I should know about the phone before I buy it? Price? Anything else? Thanks. a lot.

Forget the W395 for now, it's got to be the SE G502 or Nokia 6303C based on your preferences.

Good luck.

Your Options:



SE W995 ~ 20.6K*

Nokia N86 ~ 20.4K*

Samsung S8003 Jet ~ 18.6K* (Touchscreen Display)

Scratches are inevitable.Combined usage of a screen guard and a decent case will help in this regard.

Hello TTM
I am looking to buy a decent phone in range of around 6k for my mother.
No particular preference in terms of features.
Most important requirement is that it should have a good build quality that lasts a long time and looks good.

Keep up the good work.
