You want an Nokia and prefer Android OS?? What does it mean, bro? Do you want Nokia to launch Android Smartphones?

What about Nokia Asha 302?

you wont get any 4" or above in this range in reputed brands i think accept for the indian brands. you can check this- Nokia Asha 311 - Nokia: Flipkart.com
or if you are fine with indian brands like mmx & can compromise on service support -- Micromax Ninja A89 - Micromax: Flipkart.com . but expect a low battery backup of around a day only.

OP wants an phone with 2.4" screen or greater not 4" or greater. In addition to that he has clearly mentioned that he doesn't want a touchscreen only phone. Moreover, he prefers Nokia. That's why i suggested him the Nokia Asha 302. But, it is too a little above his budget.

@5fusion: Thanks for the suggestion but she doesn't want a touch screen phone.

@Shah: She does prefer nokia, but is okay with other models if battery backup is good, thats why I mentioned Android too, cause previously I have seen some Touch And Type droid phones. Nokia 302 Looks good, will ask her to check it out.

Budget is flexible as there are only a limited touch and type/Non touch phones
