Hi Friends,
I am having K750i for around 2 yrs and I love it. Although I am not having any problem with it but I want to change it because it does not have EDGE. I am using Airtel Mobile Office so speed will increase with EDGE enabled phone. My budget is only around 8000-10000.

My requirements are -
1. It should be EDGE enabled.
2. Screen should be at least 240*320 so that I can view websites easily.
3. Symbian OS/Word/Excel will be good. (Not compulsory)
4. Sound and Camera ( Average quality is sufficient)
5. I don't change phone frequently so it should be reliable like K750i

So after searching I have found these options-
1. Nokia 6233 (Solid)
2. Nokia E62 (No Camera, Slow)
3. Samsung E840 (Word/Excel are there but no idea about Samsungs)
4. Nokia 5700 (GPRS-EDGE class 32 ,Slightly out of my budget but I can go for it if it is very good)
5. Nokia E50 (Business class but camera only 1.3)
6. Tell me if there is any other which I am missing.

UPDATE : I have added MOTO ROKR e6 also in list.

I like Sony Ericssons but in this budget display size is not 240*320.
Thanks for reading my long post and thanks in advance for your advice.

so far two replies and both for 5700, thanks. I have to think for this seriously. But I am afraid about the life and quality of its rotating panel, is it solid enough?
Azzu, I think 5310 does not have Symbian and the price difference is not much so 5700 is better what you say?

azzu,
K790i is good but i think 5700 is having Class 32 GPRS/Edge that can improve internet speed. And it is 3G also. (for future)
pathiks,
I will sure look for 5700 it the build quality is so good.
In between i have checked that 6120c is also same like 5700 but why it is not available in India.

Nokia 5700
OR
SE K790i
Choice is yours !

If you want to go for SE in your budget, I would suggest W810i. Eventhough it's considered to be outdated it's the most robost and Value for money mobile.

azzu,
I have compared both 5310 and 5700 at GSMARENA
*www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=1936&idPhone1=2087

1. 5700 captures video in QVGA mode while 5310 only in QCIF
2. No Symbian in 5310
3. 5310 is less weight
4. 5700 has flash light
5. 5700 has 3G.
6. Price difference is only around 500 Rs.

Please don't mind but I think 5700 is better. Or I am missing some plus of 5310 over 5700?

The only problem u might have with 5700 is tht it is longer then most other phones. that's it...other then that it's an awsome phone.

Hey, even I have a K750i since septembar 2006, What should I upgrade to ? Nokia N82, SE W960i or iPhone :D

Gaurav,
I have already read your review, very nice.
So I am seeing that 5700 is favorite at this time. But I just came to know that 6120c is also having Office Applications (Word/Excel etc.). So should I wait for 6120c or is there any method for installing these application in 5700 for free.
