Hi All,
I bought the GTRAN handset last year as I wanted to move to a Color flip phone. After a couple of months, the screen started bleeding in a couple of pixels on the screen. Got the handset replaced without any hassels. Then couple more months later, the replaced handset also started bleeding. I went to the Webworld again and they asked me to mail the Manager of the shop informing the same and the handset will be replaced. I mailed the manager and to my surprise they replaced the GTRAN I had with the LG RD7230 without any extra amount. FOR FREE I was like in awe of the phone to see the features of this phone, camera, video camera, stereo sound. Just amazing. Its been 10 months now since I am using the RD7230. And now I feel underpowered since this phone has no Bluetooth and no memory expansion capabilities. I learned that Reliance will be introducing their first bluetooth handset the Nokia 6255. I am anxiuosly waiting for that handset to arrive and I will exchange the RD7230 with that one.
As far as GTRAN goes, battery life was OK, not GOOD, but OK. It was light weight and flip phones just have a different aura around them as compared to the regular non flip models. You feel good to be able to flip the phone and talk when it rings!!!
If anyone knows when Reliance is launching the 6255, please mail me. I am anxiously waiting for that.
