Chiragbhai, Keeping aside the budget factor, I would always prefer Ecosport compared to all the other three options. Hyundai Xcent: Overall Good Car with great features but the Engine lacks the required power and punch. 1.1 Crdi Engine is No fun to drive inspite of the added power compared to the Grand i10. It can be preferred if the car is going to be used as chauffeur driven. Maruti Dzire: Sells only bcoz its a Maruti. Cannot say that it outclasses the competition in a particular segment. However, the engine is fun to drive. Honda Amaze: Engine is punchy & powerful but the Interiors are not as good as others and the feature list is minimal. NVH levels are a big deterrent. Reminds you of old Diesel engines. Ford Ecosport (Diesel): Good Overall Package. SUV or Not is a debatable question. Good sturdy Ride and Handling even on the Highways at speed of 140 Up. Fun to drive. Interiors are also nice with good list of Features. Ford services are little expensive compared to the competition. If you are not looking for the SUV or seven seater, I would suggest you to look at the Honda City diesel as well. Its almost the same budget range of Ecosport however the fuel efficiency is way higher and car is feature rich especially the SV & V models. The drive is also quite Good. Just take a Test drive once and then take a call. Good Luck with your purchase and kindly update once you narrow down on a particular option.

Economic Times Voice & Data 28 April 2014 Reliance Communications today announced strategic Inter-Circle roaming partnerships with other leading telecom companies to offer non-stop and best-in-class pan-India 3G services to its GSM customers while roaming. With this alliance, all existing and new 3G customers of Reliance Communications will be able to access high-speed pan-India 3G services while roaming outside the Company's own 3G circles. "We are delighted to be the first operator to offer 3G national roaming to our customers in partnership with other telecom firms having state-of-the-art 3G networks. These alliances will further consolidate RCOM's position as the leading data operator in the country and will help the Company improve its post-paid and Corporate customer marketshare," Gurdeep Singh, Chief Executive Officer, Consumer Business, Reliance Communications Limited, said. "We have always delivered innovative products and services to our customers with incredible affordability and, at RCOM, we strongly believe in connecting every Indian and bringing about a discernible change not just in their lifestyles, but in their lives as well," he added. Reliance Communications offers 3G services in 13 Circles nationally-Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Punjab, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh, Bihar, Orissa, Assam, North East, Jammu & Kashmir. With the new 3G roaming partnerships with other leading Indian telecom companies, customers of RCOM can now enjoy affordable and non-stop 3G data services across the country while roaming. With this agreement, RCom gets access to 5 uncommon service areas - Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and UP East where Aircel has presence. Its agreement with TTSL gives it access to Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana and UP west. The partnership gives Aircel and Tata Teleservices access to most expensive service areas of Delhi and Mumbai where RCom has permits This unique offer will also add immense value to frequent domestic travelers and provide them with ease of use, and seamless 3G data connectivity across the country. For instance, RCOM's 3G customers in Delhi and Mumbai will now also be able to avail of the same quality of 3G data services when roaming in Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Kochi in the southern region of the country; UP-East and UP-West in North India; and Gujarat and Maharashtra in the western part of the country.

Here is the comparison of unequals between Samsung NOTE 2 with 1.6 GHZ, Quad core, Exynos, Arm 7 CPU, 2 GB RAM (Free about 800 MB), Android 4.3 Display resolution and size is biggest differentiators for the performance but for general use, I am sure LAVA 406Q will not lag. NOTE 2, ANTUTU and QUADRANT BENCH MARK SCREENS, price : About 20K LALA 406Q with 1.2 GHZ Quad Core, Qualcomm, Snapdragon 200 CPU, 1 GB RAM (Free About 300 MB) , Android 4.3 LAVA 406Q, ANTUTU and QUADRANT BENCH MARK SCREENS, price : About 7K Both handsets are as debloated to max possible extent. Both has SKLAVEX call recorders running as service. In Note 2 has additional app running in addition were Cardio Trainer, Alarm and Bluetooth. Who is looking for decent productivity related performance (may not be good for demanding gaming) at good price may consider Android phone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 CPU coupled with 1 GB RAM.

Both data and voice will work seamlessly. There is no need to change or select the network as it will switch automatically. Its just like how AirTel, Idea and Vodafone are already sharing network each other in circles where they don't have 3G license. It isn't clear yet whether Reliance GSM customers in non 3G circles like AP can subscribe for new 3G connection. Supreme Court had banned AirTel, Vodafone, Idea from signing up new customers for 3G in circles where they don't have license. So I would assume Reliance will also have that limitation.

Many of us still using WInXP, some like me uses in dual boot with win7 / Linux. Some times good old windows is required. But when using this good old windows, urgency comes and we need to connect our new age phones to windows XP for data transfer. and suddenly we come to know that, MTP drivers are missing or not supported in this XP. LOL.... above statement looks familiar ?.... same happen to me today with my XP sp3 and Moto G, So found a work around and got my Moto G connected to win xp as MTP device without much trouble. Windows XP sp3 already have MTP support in build, but only dont know which are MTP devices, So we have to let windows know by adding device's VID and PID to MTP driver INF. Below is sample of MTP INF, with added MOTO G info in bold letters. Moto G MTP Drivers For Win XP SP3 [Modded by Me] https://www.dropbox.com/s/37hpk21lc26h78i/wpdmtp.inf above INF file is original windows INF for MTP drivers with Added Moto G info. you can copy this to your INF directory and Moto G MTP drivers will be loaded automatically. INF folder is located inside windows directory Above can be done for all mobile MTP devices, you can have a look at this screen shot to get VID PID of device, just copy Hardware ID and replace in INF. and your work is done. If any one want help in modifying their INF file, do let me know, will do it for you. Also you can install Windows Media player 11 without activating or validating your windows Instructions are on below link, most of MTP devices are included in WMP11.

Hope this purchase qualifies for this post.. Hyundai - Xcent - VTVT SX(O) - Petrol - MT - Passion Red 7.28L OTR. 12th April 2014. First piece to touch ugly roads of my city Baroda. Had booked Verna in Dec 2013. Deal got cancelled, as my required colour was not available & Hyundai had discontinued the same. Purple. However, there was a confusion between i20 & Verna. Since me & my wife uses car equally, so a long car would have been difficult for her. Hence, I was about to compromise for i20. However, I do plan to switch to CNG once warranty period is over & having such modification in i20 would have been difficult due to limited boot space. Hyundai, came to know about my problem & immediately launched Xcent. This model was launched in Auto Expo 2014 in Feb. Hyundai officially started taking bookings after 12th March 2014. Was available on display in Baroda on 22nd March 2014. Booked on 4th April & got delivery on 12th April 2014. Dealer Shivalik Hyundai - A'bad was great help in this deal. By luck, or coincidence, they gave me my required color in shortest possible time. Sales team manager was amazing man. While booking verna 4 months back, he was simply helping me to make a right choice & not just sell his inventory. Normally dealers, give you good discounts / offers on existing inventory, but if they have to book an order with Hyundai, similar offers are not applicable many times, as new lot comes with new price etc. (minor variation). He made my purchase experience highly memorable, by managing ultra fast delivery. He has handled a customer, exactly the way a customer like to be treated. Like a King. He was flexible in everything I asked like payment terms, payment method, color, delivery date etc etc. Not a single time he said no for anything. Except more discount !!. He smiled & replied, if you come after 1 year, we can discuss discount etc for this model, but not now, while taking first bookings. Brief Review - Simply Brilliant. Expect anything & it is there. May be less in bhp front, but my main requirement was city driving & I am not a great automobile enthusiastic, so many of the terms like rpm, bhp, pick up things rarely matters to me. Earlier I was having Alto, & I never had any complaints of that. Before buying this, I had checked dezire, etios, amaze, duster, verna, superb, i20. However, in this segment (4m-sedan), this is the best package in terms of value for money. Hyundai has managed to provide quality of interior like a proper high budget Sedan. And price levels are very attractive for this model. We can't compare absolutely, since many features are simply not available in other similar budget models from other companies, like folding ORVM, reverse parking camera, boot space, rear AC vent, large number of water bottle storage etc. Smart Key feature is amazing. Now, many reviews / information is available on line so it will not serve purpose, if I write too much here. Go Google.
