nitink 279 Report post Posted June 27, 2011 motorola defy is an awesome phone and now u r getting Jabra Bluetooth Headset as well from letsbuy along with the phone. moto is making very good phones coupled with competitive pricing, its a steal. I dont think u will get a better phone than defy at that price. Agree there is a bad publicity for moto in the indian market but the handsets r sturdy and worth spending money on.

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 I think even the Samsung Galaxy Pro with full blackberry type keyboard + Touchscreen and 2.2 Android at 7.7K only is a very good choice at letsbuy, with free jabra bt headset Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 Haven't seen it in person, but I too think it does not look so good at least in the pics. But at that price I think it worth considering. But why are they forcing BT headsets on customers? They should remove it and reduce the price further. Then it will look really attractive. Ditto with the Defy. It seems they want to keep the price barrier up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kshah 452 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 Dell xcd with 256 MB ROM will will surely be sluggish. Samsung processors are better than Qualcomm. See HTC hero and compare speed with other 600 to 800 MHz cpu samsung phone. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 29, 2011 (edited) About the Samsung Galaxy Pro B7510 - does anybody know if this is going to get Gingerbread? Further, any disadvantages regarding apps. or anything else due to the uncommon screen resolution? Any disadvantages with offline GPS apps? A friend is interested in buying, but does not have answers tot the above. Any comments, anybody?. Edited June 29, 2011 by raccoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Musafir 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2011 I haven't seen the Dell screen, but the Optimus screen is quite good. Also, there is a large active community on the web that is fiddling around with the Optimus ROMs, and that may be useful if you are interested in experimenting with new ROMS.

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 29, 2011 (edited) Dude as mentioned before, O1 screen is nowhere near the XCD35. It beats every phone in its class and a bit beyond hands down. XCD35 is supposed to have comparable dev support. Pulkit, its fairly simple - want better cam go for O1 (comparatively). Want way better screen go for the Dell. Want higher capacity battery, go with O1. Want dust to spoil the whole experience, go straight for O1. Two more issues - O1 is supposed to have a touch bug and issues esp. with slower SD cards (valid only if you want to upgrade the included 2 GB card) Rest all is kinda similar.

tarun_kabra 204 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Hi, Is Samsung Galaxy 3 i5801 a good option to buy keeping in mind the budget constraint of 6-6.5K (available at letsbuy after rcomlb1) One of my associate lost his handset and was going to buy Samsung star 2 duos for 6K from market, but I asked him to go for android. I couldn't see any better option than i5801, I personally don't like Spice Mobiles. Any other options for 6K price? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 ^ ^ ^ LG Optimus Me P350 at Rs 6,999 (after rcomlb1) could be an option with Android 2.2 Froyo. http://www.letsbuy.c...me-p350-p-16096 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarun_kabra 204 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks Rajan ji, I had considered this also, but Optimus has lower screen size and resolution compared to Galaxy3. Froyo, yes LG has the plus point. There should be any Froyo update for Galaxy S also, let me check on XDA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vishal28 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Samsung Galaxy ace is a good one bought for 14150/- in mumbai yesterday. Also the Htc Desire under 16k is a steal! Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Hes looking at the below 10k range. Besides, the Ace is currently overpriced. Desire and Defy are more desirable and "VFM" in the 15k range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
