hey grudge ....
recommend some nokia/sony ericsson fone models upto a price range of say 21k... both with symbian nd non-symbian ....
Nokia
7610 (16k)
6670 (16k)
3230 (17k)
6630 (19.5k)
7710 (23k :( ) ; but it's a very good for this range.

SE
S700i (20k)
K750i (22-24k :( ) ;yet to hit in markets.

There is not much of difference btw 7610/6670. 6630 is a sort of executive/ business walla phone.
7710 , thou a get costly for ur range/budget, it's a very good buy (better than k750i IMHO).

There is not much of a choise for SE.
So get a nokia, maybe 6630 :D

Consider D500 man, it's a good slider walla phone and looks stylish :D

hmmm...i think i'll be going for 6630 .. in this additional applications frm net can be installed rite???
wow ... a last minute change !!! i was going for sony k750i ...
but heard on a lot of forums of unstable firmware...freezes etc ...

after comparing nokia 6630 with SE 750i a few points disturbed me >>

1. weight ..... 6630 - 127gms
750 - 99gms

2. size 6630 - 176 x 208 pixels
750 - 176 x 220 pixels ... looks like SE have smaller screen than Nokia...is this resolution or the screen size??

3. battery ... MOST important
6630 - Standard, Li-Ion 900 mAh (BL-5C)
Stand-by Up to 264 h
Talk time Up to 3 h

750 - Standard battery, Li-Po 900 mAh (BST-36)
Stand-by Up to 400 h
Talk time Up to 9 h

9 hours of talk time as compared to 3 hours !!!!!

explain !!!!!!!!!

EDIT >> one more SERIOUS issue ... NO FM ?????

Camera and radio alone?
WOW 7k is enough man!
Nokia 6610i is the answer.

Choice:
SE k500i :D



@grinning_devil,
6630 costs 19.5k to 20k only. When the dealer gives the k750i for lesser price then i think it's a grey market piece. Even raven got 6260 for 17.5k even the phone was released in India.

And 6630 is a symbian phone which means u can install apps man. So u can get a radio app which plays FM (it's internet radio and needs GPRS).

That battery thing can be misleading..., nokia is known for it's good batery and reliability of the same.

No Xpress on covers for it and also for k750i also :D

13K, if FM is required and not MP3 then no other than K700i

+ Camera with Flash and 4x zoom
+ Most sharp display on any mobile phone in range
+ Video recording till shared 41MB finishes
+ FM
+ Cool 3D games
+ Good looks
+ Simply works as phone as well :p
- No expandable memory

If MP3 then 6600
+ Memory card support upto 1GB
+ This too simply works as phone as well, just little bulky :p
- No camera flash
- No FM
- Larger screen, but not as sharp as K700i
- No 3D games

hey devil , go 4 6630 . its some kick-ass model , the performance in ph apps ( incl 2D-3D games ) is almost double that of the 3230 due 2 a faster processor n also a gud OS ( mayb , v 8.0b , dunno exactly ) even beats the new 6680 , when it comes 2 raw performance

m plannin 2 buy 1 myself , if k750i aint without no glitches . atleast , nokia have a lot of service centres compared 2 only a few of s-e

4 a superb review on 6630 , check out mobile-reviews.com

@mamba ... iam really confused man ... 6630 or 750i ..
installings apps is definately a gud point in 6230...but the screen is nothing compared to that of se...
nd most important .. i DO need fm...NOT frm gprs...

nd lookwise also iam inclined towards 750i ...

lets see .......

22k was the cost which due to the offer we could pay it off in 6 installments.

This is so tempting... is this from Authorized Sony Ericsson Dealer?

Is the scheme from SE or is it from dealer? Can I get this here in mumbai?

iinfi said:
hi

can u plz tell me the current mumbai market prices of these mobiles (NEW)

Nokia 6610
Nokia 6610i
Nokia 3220

suggest any other good fone in the price bracket of Rs.5500 to Rs.6000

The best buy is 3200

I would rate
3200 (Keypad may not suite everyone's test)
6610i (It is costly but have 4MB memory)
6610 (Best looks and low cost)
3220 (Bad, no IR, no FM, but best screen 64k colors)

I prefer 3200 coz u can transfer images and ringtones through IR to and from other phones which is not possible in 6610.

Also 6610 and 3200 are equally priced at 6-6.5K, 3200 being few hundred bucks cheaper, and it is a camera phone too.

3200 also has a flash light if u need in case of dark night ;)

Nokia 6610 --> 6k
6610i-->7.5k
3220--> 9k

All these three phones are not in the bracket of 5.5-6k. :D

Have u seen LG 1600?
It has:
- GPRS
- MMS
- IR
- Voice recorder
- 65k color; 16 chord polyphonic ringtones.
WE can clearly see that it got better features than 6610 in the 6k range, but i suggest u 6610.

My order of preference:
6610>LG 166> samsung c200

Right off the assembly line
k300i vs k508i

i am about to buy a new cell phone.i have shortlisted
two - 1) SE k508i
2) SE k300i
my problem is - i am having trouble choosing one.
i have listed below the pros and cons of the two models.
which phone do you think i should buy and why.

1) SE k508i

+ better,bigger,clearer TFT display.
+ been around for a year, so many applications,games are available.
+ cover for the cam lens.

- got no more features than the k300i.
- yawning gap in the joy-stick lets dust in.

2) SE k300i

+ got all the features of k508i.
+ cheaper by around Rs.1200.
+ better design and looks (according to me).
+ better battery backup due to non-TFT (STN) display.

- dull screen (how bad is it really?).
- no cover for cam lens.

if i buy the k300i,i will buy a data cable with the money(Rs.1200)
i save.

Please help me decide quickly.
 

supernova

Mr. S Nova
@stinger I personally feel that k300 has much better design than k508. The screen is not that bad either. Moreover u needn't spend all 1200 bucks on the cable.....get a assembled instead at much cheaper rates.. ask khandu, he might be having one.
My openion - go 4 k300i :) and save money
