Greatest 55 Report post Posted December 25, 2010 1200 mah battery shouldnt be enough to carry out the tasks that the bot would want.. nevertheless, awesome specs for an awesome price... I somehow feel the 667 MHz processor would also not give you complete experience of the 2.2 Froyo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted December 25, 2010 It still has the same crappy resolution as that on the Galaxy 3. The Optimus one still wins on this parameter at least. O1 also has a bigger battery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sgiitk 32 Report post Posted March 29, 2011 Price is down to Rs.10,990 on FlipKart though I saw nothing below 11,599 on eBay. Very tempting for those like me who like to have a real physical keypad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgiitk 32 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 Got it yesterday from the local chap. Rs.11,400 was the price I paid. Expect to recover some of the Rs.400 in the better price I should be getting for my old N5230. First impressions: Looks like to result of a one night stand between the Galaxy 3 and Epic 4G. Gettin familiar with Apdroid - my $G developed a problem after all of three days. Ear speaker is great - beats the N6275 or N5230 hollow. Connected to the iitk network - got 11.5+ Mbps yesterday, but getting only 30 or so kbps today. Watch this space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 Thats strange - most phones can be had locally here for less than Flipkart prices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FEVIN-RAJ 61 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 u are right raccoon Initially local shop wala will ask the online price. but if u bargain u will get 500 to 1K discount. This is my experiance as of now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 Well, I'v noticed the difference (between Flipkart and local shops) can even be around 1k for a 10k phone. That is 10%... sometimes, even bit more, depending on where you buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
