rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) GSM 3G/CDMA EVDO Phones Below Rs 10,000 GSM 3G is here and CDMA EVDO was already in place. Next thing you want is an affordable 3G/EVDO Phone. I feel not everyone is looking for buying those 20-25K phones, neither can most people afford it. So thought of compiling this list. For this roundup, my criteria was following, -Price Below Rs 10,000 -Real 3G Phone. GSM Phones advertising 3G but having 384kbps speed is excluded. -For CDMA, 1x speed phones are excluded. -Also imported CDMA phones excluded as Official EVDO on them still not possible. (I know some members using but still it's not available for public at large easily, Also won't fit into Rs 10,000) With this criteria, my search yielded following choices for 3G/EVDO Phones below Rs 10,000. All Prices are Online. Happy And Economical Buying....Enjoy.... Please post phones missed out fulfilling the above criteria and i will update. Thanks.

inception 75 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) Off topic: CDMA players do not offer good 1x plans for using internet on mobile, like GSM operators has GPRS packs (200MB/500MB/1GB/2GB/6GB for 1/3/7/15/30 days)! that stops me from buying a EVDO Rev A handset! on mobile 153kBps with greater stability serves very well!

ankurcshah 112 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 You seem to have forgotten to post this. This is Samsung C5130. I used this phone for about a month (only on 2G) not tested for 3G. It's quite a good phone. The price is also cheap as I bought it for 3600/- only. It's a pretty decent phone, but it's a bit slow.Takes 1-2 seconds to respond.

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Updated the Initial List with More Phones. Also thinking whether to raise the Price Upto Rs 15,000 for inclusion in the list...Many more options between Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000...Particularly Androids.... But then Feel Good Figure of Below Rs 10,000 Goes.... What You All Say? Will decide after your comments... Edited January 11, 2011 by rajanmehta Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Rajan ji... Only list those phones within 10k, please.. In 11 to 15k many more choices are there to list out and they will surely come to below 10k category AFTER SOME time, imho.. When they reach below 10k price, then you can add them to the list... Till then, let those >10k phones wait for you... Edited January 11, 2011 by KanagaDeepan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
