Chirag 5 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 Hey Recently my friend asked me which Reliance CDMA handset he should buy given his constraints, and i realised how I'm disconnected from this forum these days and I had to tell him, give me a day or so and I'll get back!! So i'm making a come back here and i would be around on the forum more often now! I went through several posts trying to figure out which handset would suit my friend's requirements. I would like fellow forum members to make their comments. My friend is looking for... 1. Will be on Reliance CDMA network for as long Number Portability doesn't come 2. Has an existing Reliance CDMA number and doesn't want to change it till such time. 3. The current handset is in such a state that he feels embarrassed in business meetings (N6235) 4. Budget is 12k. (But given the handset is good, can stretch the budget) 5. Bluetooth, 512mb+ memory, Camera are must & Email, Browsing would be loved to have. 6. A Nokia Loyalist so far. (isn't sure abt Samsung, Blackberry or HTC performance and issues) From my observations on the posts around, I narrowed down that Nokia 6275 still seems to rock and the prices haven't really gone down. (Thats insane) Other's that I managed to narrow down were Samsung F309, HTC Wave & Blackberry Pearl. Can you pls comment or recommend on any handset? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 I would suggest you in this priority - 1. Mogul for around 15.5K (with full fledged WiFi, WM6.1, Sliding Keyboard, Expandable memory upto 32GB etc. etc.) 2. Treo 755p for 11K (Very Simple to use Palm OS, little dated OS, Great Touchscreen Clarity, Jagged Internet, no wifi) 3. Blackberry Curve for 10K (Blackberry services and internet wont work on sadikk handsets, otherwise good replacement to 6275, sleek, no touchscreen, no wifi) All 3 are available from our inhouse Sadikk; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) ya i dont think he has bb curve for 10 k .. well i wud advise for htc mogul .. tero755 p only if he is not much into browsing thing bb pearl would be also a very nice handset ..its sleek and looks beautiful ...but he cant use data services on it . little dated OS, lol its officially dead os Edited March 24, 2009 by mufaddal_km Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) ^ But I still wouldnt undermine the treo; its got a full qwerty keyboard and solid built quality; as a phone it beats mogul hands down; only when it comes to internet and data does it weakness comes through; it may be dead os but still beats the **** out of many others like blackberry; and its got thousands of downloadable applications roaming around on the net for every conceivable use...

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 ^^^ i agree with you , i myself like palm os ..but its too old and hence been scraped off but still it kicks *** .though , better than windows mobile os /bb os since it is old enough i also has a huge databse of apps but for people like me who need net connectivity on the go treo fails in that area this is the only reason i have stopped using treo755 and shifted to mogul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACS 130 Report post Posted March 24, 2009 Samsung 2On Dual GSM/CDMA @ 15k. Lots of features: www.samsungcdma.in & more importantly a superb looking handset. Also, as he is in business & could be on roaming etc. you can suggest him to go for a BSNL/VSNL GSM LT Prepaid card as a second SIM option which has excellent coverage where RComm cant reach. Activate GSM only while on roaming so that youre never out of reach.. something has to work right ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
