Mobile phone under 20k

[mayur_digitized]

Hi Friends

I am looking to buy a mobile phone with following specifications
1. Symbian platform (no Android)
2. Large touch screen (preferably capacitive if my budget permits)
3. 3G support
4. Push email service

Can you suggest some good phones in my budget (20,000 or less)? I can stretch my budget up to 25k to meet the above criteria. I would like to avoid the likes of Micromax, Lava and other new brands in the market.

Thanks in advance
Mayur

Sorry: I didn't notice there was another thread for mobiles only. Moderators please close this thread.

Motorola Defy
Samsung Wave II
Nokia C7
If you can stretch till 25k, check Nokia N8 (24k) and HTC Desire (28k but one heck of a phone)

any reason why you opt out Micromax and Lava but opt for Symbian only? Symbian is as useless as thsoe manufacturers.

Hi Desibond, thanks for the reply

I do not have faith in these newer companies as of now (they might be as good as Nokias or Samsungs). But I prefer to stay away from them. As per going with Symbian, I have not much choice. I use a Live chat software on my website which I want to access through my mobile. It seems they only support symbian, iphone (damn expensive), blackberry (i vent heard of touchscreen in blackberry) and windows mobile (does any1 use that). It is quite surprising that they do not support android and do not plan to support it till the end of this year. That is why I will use it only for a short duration and upgrade as soon as they provide support for Android or other devices.

ah okay. btw, I have closed your duplicate thread. Given your requirement, you can look for these:

1. N97 Mini. (touch and qwerty)
2. E5 (qwerty)
3. C7 (touch only but S^3)

Yes, I didn't see that there was a separate thread "Mobile Monsters".

btw, which mobile would you have recommended among these 5?
