The touch screen part is subjective.

My keypad of My SE is showing signs of dying. The zero button is not working. Guess i can hold my phone till the time i upgrade my phone.

And you yourself had a touch screen nokia right. How was that one?

Zylo is good at 8K (Walkman V4 ) has Flac support (not sure about earphones though )

if Wi-fi is your need then W705 should be good for you (has flash too for camera) (has HPM-77 one of the best in-ear earphones)

Guys, I need a good phone, preferring Android..

My budget is 15-18k.

I'm text addict, so consider that. If it is touch then, I really need phone having good touch sensitivity (not like Samsung Star, Nokia 5233 etc)

hmm.

1) Motorola Backflip (hard qwerty but resistive touch)

2) Samsung Wave (Bada OS, awesome hardware and very good display)

3) Nokia X6 (VFM package)

4) HTC Wildfire (android os but very poor display resolution)

my pick: Samsung Wave.

^ I really liked the Samsung wave but do Bada OS really have good future like Android, iOS does? I need good application repo and very flexible customization. I play with my gadgets a lot, so I need something which will not get me sick of it very soon.

if number of applications important, then nothing beats Android. from what I see, Wave does have future but Android is the future :)

if you want to use android phone get Legend atleast (22k) or Milestone. all those sub 20k android phones are worthless.

display of legend is legen -- wait for it -- dary. Legendary!

the stores like sangeetha sell it for a higher price but some non-chain stores sell it for better price.

Hi,

This might come as one of the most repeated query, but I am looking for an Android phone.

Everytime I read one of the threads, it leaves me more disctracted than satisfied.

My basic needs from a mobile is

1. Android

2. Looks

2. Performance

3. Camera

4. Music

and all the regular pakage deals.

HTC wildfire might be a choice but it looses out on resolution. Also, I dont like any of the HTC phones after Hero in terms of looks. I sort of was ready to buy Hero, but there are much newer phones available than it now.

I would want something that has the looks as well as performance (that's why they are both numbered on same priority ..:) )

Budget should not be a problem, but I would not like to go on a spending spree, but VFM instead.

If you're OK with its design and ergonomics, the SE W595 (8.8K*) would be your best option.

1. Yes, it's quite possible to get it for 22K.

2. The display is pretty good.

1. Dual Sim, Under 2K: Look at options from Karbonn and Micromax.

2. Backup: If the contacts are saved on your phone's (1202) memory, copy them to the SIM card.

Once on the SIM card, you can either leave them there or transfer them to the new phone.
