I am not sure how far that's accurate-i came across this info while searching for reviews on t2 ultra dual.This seems really absurd because how can they expect people to pay 60% of the mrp for a refurbished phone everytime some problem crops up?! Does anyone have any first hand knowledge or experience regarding this?

[MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION]:you're right-there are indeed some videos on youtube showing how this phone can be opened up for carrying out repairs-and the process doesn't look very difficult at all,so the claims made by the service centers about the phone being un-openable appear to be totally false.

^ maybe they were trying to open the phone using hands and not proper tools. 
I remember the service centre guys kept flashing the original firmware over and over whenever I visited them to get the my Nokia 6303C fixed. I didn't knew it was a hardware problem and they took me for granted.
When I got to know what the actual problem was, it was too late. The phone was out of warranty.
The service centre refused to replace the damaged Power IC on the phone because they weren't authorised by Nokia India to do repair work. I was like "WTF, then what are you people doing here?"
They said they'll need to send it to Delhi for repair work and shipping will cost 4k alone while the phone was for 7.5k.
(b*tch please I can travel to Delhi and back on train well within 4k)

Today i called sony's toll free number and enquired whether they replace or repair their z series and t2 ultra phones-their rep told me that earlier these mobiles could not be repaired as they required some kind of "special tools"-but this problem has apparently been resolved now as they have obtained the requisite tools that are necessary for this purpose,therefore now they can repair any such phone.I do hope that this individual was telling me the truth,not bluffing.
[MENTION=168190]satyamsit[/MENTION]:I suggest moto G 2nd gen-asus zenfone 5,although good,has some issues with battery life which are not present in moto g.

Nokia has improved its service etc now and original(and third party) parts are freely available for cheap
its the same with dell laptops
you dont necessarily buy for better service,its for availability of parts atleast for me
I know that if I have an issue with my main phone(Lumia 720) or my main laptop(dell 7520),i can get parts easily within 1-2 hours
as for service,my Lumia had network issues and they replaced the sim slot ,no questions asked within 1 week(the issue returned and it turned out the issue was with my sim card itself so it wasnt a hardware issue)

I totally agree with you never a Nokia Windows ever.
I am hearing about Moto E's Second gen version. Comparison shows lots of things are improving, specially in camera department. Motorola Moto E (2015) vs. Motorola Moto E Dual SIM - GSMArena.com
Rumors says it will be launched around this month or the next. Worth waiting?

can the battery of Micromax Hue (3000 mAh) be slipped inside Micromax Nitro(2500 mAh)? Can a smartphone be assembled with stock android ?

micromax source the mobiles from different OEMs so it mayn't be possible. also different mobiles so dimension change affects battery which may be thick or of different proportion.
im afraid i disagree,im completely satisfied with my Lumia and so are many other users

risky,dont true it,you might fry the phone or battery
get a decent powerbank instead such as the Mi 5200mah or 10400mah(Rs599 and 1k respectively)
I bought the latter and its great for the price
