^Go for Nokia C3 although it doesn't have 3G it does have WiFi.
It is difficult to have both WiFi, 3G and QWERTY under 5k :razz:

its difficult to get the ur desired features under 5K.
you can get X2-01 for 3.8K.
or you can increase your budget to 7.7K and get E63. it has all features you want and it is a good phone.
i own both X2-01 and E63.

I don't want 3G and Wifi in the same mobile.
Either one of them will do:smile:
And When I checked for Samsung Chat 335 flipkart says that "Permenantly Discontinued"

Is there any other mobile having these features????

you may need to go Micromax way for those features. at 2k+, you can get Galaxy Pro and E63, which are pretty good devices.

Dude are you kidding me??..how can you even think that Lava is a trustworthy brand??Of all these cheap-a$$ companies only Micromax seems to be relatively(being the operative word) better than others!!n when I say "others" it includes all those cheap-a$$ companies you can think of(Karbon,Maxx,Olive,Lemon, Zen & God knows what)...

I'd say increase the budget to 7.5k and get Galaxy Pro from letsbuy. Nothing matches it at this price point. Otherwise you could go for Nokia X2-01 for around 3k. It hasn't got any of those features, but it has very nice keypad and solid build quality. Trust Nokia on making good quality cheap phones. :D
Gsmarena has given a good review to this one.

Just asked about it as One of my friend told that its good:lol:

How about going for Low price android Mobiles like Spice MI-270????
Is it good???? after applying icicilb code I m getting the mobile for 5.1...

Is it worth????

Confused with Nokia C3 or Spice-MI-270

Which one to buy????

I think lower priced android phones from Micromax etc dont have enough powerful hardware to handle Android properly. Even the HTC Wildfire doesn't seem that fluid. These cheaper Spice phones will become more of a headache soon as you install apps and stuff. C3 might be a better option imho.

@pmkarun, if you are ready to go for local brands but want Android, minimum you should get is Micromax A70. specs are descent & at least spec wise it should be usable. but with the el-cheapo mobiles like Spice M-270/Andro, the screen is small & resisitve, processor is either slow & also ram is too low to make it any usable.

if you can't increase your budget, stick to your QWERTY phone plan & get C3.
