santhoshavanoor 7 Report post Posted December 31, 2009 Is anybody knows that Nokia is gradually shutting down their Europe factories? Before here in Gulf we can get Nokia mobile phones from Finland, Holland etc. Now a days nokia phones are coming from China, and even from India... I can say that Nokia quality is not too good compare to Indian mobiles(even it is chineese crap). I can give 4 out of 5 for nokia and 3 out of 5 for Karbonn and Spice. But chineese models which is not under indian brand is really worst and I can give 0.5 out of 5. I think indian companies are importing the parts and they are assembling here in India. I have nokia 5800 xpress music and Karbonn 451M with me. Once I have shown karbonn mobile to my colleagues they have liked the Karbonn mobile. Here in Bahrain, there is more chineese crap mobiles available, but nobody likes that. But once I have shown Karbonn they want to purchase this model. Battery life: compare to nokia single sim, karbonn dual sim mobile battery life is more. And a wonderful thing is that Karbonn is using nokia's battery for their dual sim. But people are running behind the branded name; and nokia is one of the first companies those who introduced mobiles to the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are Bhayyaaaaa,,,,, I think you haven't used Nokia, Spice and Karbonn. I have used Nokia N 73, still using Nokia 5800 xpress music (both are overpriced), still using Spice C810, Karbonn 451M. So I know there are difference in these sets, and now planning to say bye bye to Nokia. I have checked Samsung UI, it is better than nokia UI. But as of all of us knows that Spice, Karbonns are not fully supported JAVA applications and some other cool stuffss.. i dont know about spice....but if u r talking about karbonn its really better than nokia.. the problem is what we r used to of nokia n so we find it user friendly...its just like windos OS comparing apple or linux...we find windows more user friendly because we hv used it from early...... karbonn has same battery backup with dual sim (i m using kc441) which nokia provide with single sim n thts too gsm....so in this case karbonn has better battery backup... now if u talk abt specs i dont think i need to tell anything....everyone knows what nokia provides in Rs.4000/ (thts the price of kc441) now servicing part...its true karbonn service centre r not available everywhere but its the time being thing...gradually it ll b everywhere. but just think abt nokia service centre.... people hv VERY NICE EXPERIENCE with nokia... some threads r running abt this just check them..... on the other hand my karbonn went into water n its pcb got faulted...the service centre people changed the whole pcb within 7 days n tht too without asking any paper ..... Break the monopoly of these eshtablished brand.... You are right, because we have used nokia from early. Karbonn will improve their customer service centre very soon. If they are not doing it, surely, they will wanish from the market. one of my simple exprience with Spice mobiles, on April 2008 I have brought Spice D88 from Reliance Centre at Thrissur. I have experienced the battery problem with that mobile, so I went to exchange the mobile with them. Simply they told me that they doesn't have a replacement, but they will contact spice service center. Infront of me they contacted Kochi spice service centre(at that time only one centre in Kerala; now how many I don't know), they adviced reliance executive to replace with another mobile for time being until they have replace with new set. But I prefer for spice C810, then they exchanged with the new mobile, I have got the balance amount from them also. Did Nokia service center will do this?

I fully agree with above I have used Nokia, LG, spice, karbonn and have experience of service and phone usage.Quality is atleast now better than nokia. SPice and LG repairs phone in 1 to 3 hours max and replaces if required within 2-5 days Whereas nokia takes 1-12 months for repairs ( mostly it will say not repairable after keeping phone for months) For replacement you have to go for consumer courts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
