instead of wasting 18k on c7 i changed his mind to optimus and then to Galaxy s :P

Well, yesterday's price for the C7 at Alfa was 16k and that for the C6-01 was 15.85k. And I was like... :S Why would anyone choose the C6-01 over the C7 just for 150 rupees??

Hey guys,

Budget is 13k (max. pushing to 15k).

Need an android device.

Have zeroed on Spice Mi-310/SG Ace/LG Opt P500.

Now Spice Mi-310 has pathetic battery life. Officially it's 2.5 hours which is utter rubbish.

SG Ace hasn't got any community support as of now. It's not even listed on XDA/Samdroid forums. So I doubt it's gonna get any mods etc. Even after rooting users are reporting that apps haven't got root kernel access. So looks bleak and I don't wanna get stuck with TouchWiz3. :|

LG P500 on the other hands looks to be ideal. Proper modding support. Proccy can be overclocked to 800Mhz. 512 MB RAM.

Any other suggestion guys ?

TIA.

Get one from the Corby Series from Samsung. Pretty much VFM at the price. Plus, they are well settled in the market and are popular in the segment.

My dad needs a BB phone. Max budget 15k. What are my options ? :(
Click to expand...
BB Curve 8520 (~ 12k) or the BB Pearl 3G 9105 (~ 13.5k) are your best options.

I am not sure about the price of the 8900 Javelin or it's availability but I think it might fit in your budget. Ask others for the price and availability of the 8900.

BTW, you have a really cute avatar... :)

Get your wife the Samsung Galaxy Pop if she has no issues with Android and Samsung. Nokia phones in the sub 10k segment have dated software and are basically boring...

For your dad, get a Nokia 1280. Superb phone and total VFM for the price.

BB Plans are expensive. If QWERTY is the only requirement (and you don't need BB Services), consider the Nokia E5 (~9k).

If you simply must have a BB, get the Curve 8520 (~ 12k) or the 9300 (~ 14k).

Guys,

Just wanted to ask about your views on the HTC Wildfire? How did you find the phone and is it worth a buy? I'm thinking of gifting it to my brother who is a big android fan. So please let me know how do you feel about the particular phone. TIA

regards,

egoB
