Well, after 3 years of life with phones in the 8k bracket, i'm going for my first multipurpose phone. I had a 6681(2nd hand),W300(one i have even now), Micromax Q2,Micromax Q75.
I want a good cam nd faster phone.
I want to enjoy the high resolution pictures and Touch Screen.

* I love gaming on my PC, nd i'm sure i'll love gaming on the go
* I dont even have a simple point to shoot cam nd i love to take pictues,so i want a pretty decent cam since my dad wont buy me a camera.
* Nd telling overall, it is my first phone with this much spending in it. and i'll be using it to the most for sure.(atleast for the first year ;-) )


I've bought my previous phones from the suggestions given by you guys and i believe in you guys very much.

For mainly gaming,
ios would be good for you.
iphone 3gs @ 19.9k

In android,
xperia play (a lil above budget)

Obviously if you want to have a multitalented phone android will suit u the best. These phones will handle gaming well too.
Dual core:
-If poss stretch ur budget by 3-4k and get the samsung galxy s2. Theres nothing like it, and its future proof too.
-If you want a lower cost dual core check out the lg optimus 2x @25k
Good value dual core

Single Core:
-nexus s @ 19k (+updates,-no fm,-you can get better for ur budget)
-LG optimus black @19k (+nova display, -sound issues, -network issues)
-HTC Desire S @21k (+Almost as good as the incredible S @lower price,+new improved desire,-720p recording is jerky)
-Samsung Galaxy S @23k(+great community support,-old now)
-HTC Incredible S @25k(+bigger display than desire s,+best screen of HTC,-out of the box v2.2)
-SE ARC @26k(+sleek n eye catchy, -no front cam ,- desire s and incredible s feel better and more vfm)

IMO you should go wid a dual core, you can go to any shop and get a hands on experience of each phone too.
FINAL VERDICT
-If poss extend budget and get galaxy s2
-else get the optimus 2x, its got a nvidia tegra which is very good for gaming
-If you want playstation experience with physical gaming keys then xperia -play.
-If you want a no frills, easy to use phone with simple interface and gr8 games then iphone 3gs

You can buy Sony Xperia Neo from Ebay India & Indiaplaza.com available for around 22k

Only if still image quality is a must.

At same price I feel desire S is a better deal because:
-Desire S has 1.1GB internal mem and 784MB RAM
Neo has 320MB internal mem and 512MB RAM
-Still image quality of Neo is better but video recording is almost the same. Desire S has a very capable 5MP cam which is more than enough for most ppl.
-HTC sense is much better than Sonys timescape
-HTC is better and faster at providing updates to its android phones.
-After the Desire's success the Desire S will get similar dev support.

Sony's current xperia lineup is far better then HTC in every way. If you really wanna buy HTC & can extend you're budget then go for HTC Sensation.

K guys..
Thanks for the replies.
I'm also thinking about getting Galaxy S II. But at the same time i'm thinking of should i go that high. After all it will remain a phone. So i'm a bit confused now. So for now I'm sticking to the 25k as max budget.

Well, i m trying to figure out the dual cores available in this range. I know Optimus 2X. Ny other phone s ?
Ny1 know about Galaxy Z relase date ?

Then Desire S vs OP2X ? Which is better ?
It should be OP2X with the specs i've seen.

well here I am lobbying for xperia arc again. Especially now when its is speeding up. Review in my signature. No front cam though.
I am rich enough to pay for this phone but too poor to afford 5p/sec video calling :)

If no the arc then i would say go for SGS 2

if u refer some Threads of GSII on TDF u can say the yellow screen isnt big problem...(and its taken care of)..
sensation cant beat SGII ..

SGII is the best android yet..

if gaming is in the list & budget within 25k, get a Tegra2 based mobile i.e. LG O2X. dual core (all highend mobiles are shifting to multicore SOC now) & tegrazone will be of real help. if not now then soon.
