Spec Sheet Comparo of the Ideos X3 and A60+
+'s for the Ideos X3
Slightly Better Camera (on paper)
Front Camera
Available on flipkart (which I would trust while making an online purchase).
+'s for the Lenovo A60+
Larger Screen
Larger battery
1 Ghz processor against the 600 Mhz one of the Ideos.
Which one do you recommend ? The lenovo looses out on a poorer camera rating and lacks a front cam , but has a bigger screeen and a faster processor and perhaps a better battery life. Besides, availability seems to be an issue, as I can see it only on ebay and homeshop18.
The intended user is a first time smart phone user. Shes slightly creeped out by the "indian" Brands, like Micromax or Karbonn, but opinion can be swayed. By me. If I am convinced about their reliability to begin with.
