Internet phone...

[╬Switch╬]

Guys, I'm looking for a phone which a decent browser with a large screen and a music player, my budget is 8-10K.
What do you suggest.
I will be using it mainly for accessing moblie apps like gmail, and browsing sites (a big screen) and maybe chatting and for listening to music (so a 3.5mm would be nice).
And lastly, I'm a noob regarding mobiles (really).

Htc touch seems to be good except the music that sucks . 5320 is great phone that have everything you need but the small screen may not be your choice.

Among Big screen , music and internet , you have to choose first two priority

Hmmmm

You want a WiFi enabled phone or one relying on packet data by operator one?

Considering the number of WiFi hotspots in India, I'm ok if its not present.

Are there any other phones that I should consider?

Samsung I450 if camera is not a priority.

What about the Samsung Star looks great for 8.5K?

yeah good buy ... think its got everything u need ... i still feel the browsing on s60 fones is better (5320 and i450) , but their screen size will not suit ur requirement ...

so yeah , go for the star ... tis a realy nice fone

I doubt star's browsing capability . In india we are pretty much forced to use operamini because of our fatAss edge network that is practically worse than standard gprs. But samsungs java implementation always sucked . Also in a s60 phone like i450 you have choice of many browser like opera , operamini , ucweb , skyfire , bolt etc.

And dont think the big screen automatically means better browsing . I though so and bought 5800 , but now i prefer n85 for browsing large pages. The dragging scrolling becomes very tiresome after some time compared to just a keypress in normal phone.

I450 is damn good for internet..... lol this should be a internet phone rather than a music phone.

Samsung star sucks. I got it for my frnd the day it was available in stock and it seriously sucks. Browsing on it is a pain in the ass and painfully slow even on EDGE. The touch response is good though . Dont go for it at all.
