Optimus One and Wildfire S lack processing power and Galaxy Ace has pathetic screen.
So go for Motorola Defy.

Another Option : Spice MI410; pretty powerful device but thanks to Spice (currently) unable to show its full potential :-(

for 15k budget, forget WS, O1, Ace. instead look at this:

Xperia Mini Pro over Defy:
* Better Chipset (CPU+GPU)
* Physical QWERTY
* Better Quality Screen (Sony Bravia Engine)
* Better Camera (720p video recording)

Defy over Xperia Mini Pro:
* Bigger Screen
* Better Looking Screen (480*854 resolution, great ppi)
* Better Build Quality
* Great XDA Support
 
Android Phone- Better than Spice Mi-310 in 8k?

After using a phone for 1 year which was earlier used for 4-5 years by other family members, I need to change it as its dead now. :cry:


1. Budget? 8K
2. Display type and size? 320x480. Read somewhere that its better than 240x400 thats why :))
3. Form Factor? bar, slider, flip? Bar/Slide
4. Preferred choice of brand? N/A
5. Preferred input method (QWERTY, touchscreen, numpad, touch-n-type). Touch.

N/A
7. Preferred operating system? (Android, Symbian, iOS, Windows Phone etc). Android...

9. Preferred applications (Flash, Swype, GPS, etc)? N/A
10. Primary use of handset (multimedia, camera, mails, internet, gaming etc)? Net + Texting
11. Any specific mobile phones in consideration?
I looked at Spice Mi-310. Looks a great phone, reviews are good too. The only problem is that its spice.. :p And all reviews were those that "use for 2 days and review", I have no idea what happens to phone after 3-4months...
12. Any other info that you want to share
I was going to wait till March/April for purchase but now the phone is totally dead and I need to change it. I am going to purchase it in 3-4 days locally, not online!! You can say that this thread is only to find a better phone that Mi310.
If any of you have used a Spice Mi310, please share your views on it too...

Oh, and any idea about its sound quality?:?:

if you can increase your budget by 1-1.5k (& seriously do consider), get Optimus One.

if you can't increase budget: Galaxy Pro, Galaxy Pop, Galaxy 551 (last 2 suffering from bad backup). Micromax A70 if you want exactly what you asked for.

but still, try & get O1. you won't regret.

MI310 is a lowend mobile. AVOID.

If you are not brand concious, Micromax A70 is an excellent choice !

I have personally got my hands on wildfire S and its a very nice phone for 12k.
Now please help me choose among HTC Salsa,Wildfire S and Moto Defy.

Ok.....
I may go for O1(never thought I would, but now its 9k :D). Does it offer some colour options?? How is multitouch? I mean how many fingers it supports?

Is the screen fingerprint friendly, or I can be worry-less about screen?? :))

FIT is BAD. low resolution on an Android mobile never looks good. and with half the amount of ram as on Optimus One, this one should be first to be ruled out.

read this excellent post by Naino:
Xperia Mini Pro over Defy:
* Better Chipset (CPU+GPU)
* Physical QWERTY
* Better Quality Screen (Sony Bravia Engine)

don't waste money going for Ace & WS. for 15k, Mini Pro & Defy are only good options. Optimus One is a sub10k Android. if are willing to spend 15k, don't see any reason to go for it.

Ok.....

only 2 colour available: Black & White. strangely white one cost 11k. & also it'll look dirty soon. 2 finger pinch-to-zoom works fine. but not sure, as i am using custom rom.

Is the screen fingerprint friendly, or I can be worry-less about screen?? :))

no, but glossy. fingerprints can be wiped easily.
 
Nice. I will get the black one if available...

Just one more question...
How is the brightness, is it possible to know the time in sunlight??
Sound Quality with the supplied earphones?

Oh! Oops, they are 2 questions! :p

under sunlight, visibility is a problem. screen is bright but also glossy.

bundled headphones have earbuds, so comfortable to wear. sound quality is descent but stock player doesn't have any equalizer.
