Mobile for 4K...

[MegaMind]

Hi guys, My aunt needs a mobile for 4K...
Needed a basic camera,
Good battery backup,
Which one s good in the price range??

 

[mohityadavx]

I would suggest nokia 2700cc using it for around 6 months good phone average camera but then u can't get a superb camera in this budget ( street price <= 3000)

What about nokia C2-01.
Its a very good one with 3G and 3.2MP Camera. Its just around 3.8k.
Also look for some Samsung GURU models with dual sim and good battery.

I won't comment on C2-01
but i own samsung metro 3500i bought it for 4.1 k

Look how good it is ( these cons are applicable on almost on all samsung phone under 5k)
1) won't run jar need jad file also
2) won't run file > 500kb
3) poor battery backup even an android phone will put it to shame
4) won't allow installing app on memory card
5) limited memory for installing app
6) Delicate had to replace its ear speaker within 6 months ( Thank God it was in warranty)
7)if u use jar to jad maker it will not accept jad file 90% of all the times u try
8)worst inbuilt browser i have used *( despite i in 3500i for internet)
9)long pressing 0 won't do anything (WTH!!!)
10) will post more once i remember more

OT:-
saswat u should change hdd 500 tb to 500 pb(petabyte)

Check out this one Nokia India - Nokia 2730 classic - Mobile phone

2 mp cam, not fancy. Good battery back up. Simple yet elegant.

^^ +1

buy 2730 only if u want 3G otherwise go for 2700cc no other difference other than 3g actually if u remove 3G 2700 cc is better in many aspects

I would recommend Sony Ericsson Cedar. 3g+2mp cam(excellent quality)!

check this:- Sony Ericsson Cedar - Full phone specifications

OK... considering battery backup which would be good?

 

[himangshu]

For battery backup i would go for Nokia 2700c or Sony Ericsson Cedar. But my pick would be SE Cedar!

 

[MegaMind]

I'd pick SE over nokia anyday...
But my has to decide in this case...
Thanks for ur suggestions

Wat abt nokia C2-01 & Sony Ericsson Cedar???

 

[coderunknown]

Keypad of nokia 2700 is hard & 2730 keypad is odd. Its like having keys covered by plastic skin. Also battery backup is not good under heavy use. Rest everything is good. However samsung have app problem. Size, type, etc. you ask it, they'll have it. But battery backup is best & are really light & look trendy.

Cedar has more talktime, better internet speed(3G), good audio, good video recording(320x240)
C2-1 has higher resolution camera(3.2MP), better battery(1050mAh vs. 1000mAh) but miserable screen, very bad viewing angle, poor audio reproduction quality.

So its better to go for Cedar

BTW Cedar has a very good keypad.

Thanks for the explanation, helped a lot..

Price of Cedar??

Also any trustable shops in chennai?

 

[himangshu]

Price of Cedar is 4K or 4.3k approx. Sorry Iam not in Chennai so cannot say about shops!
