    My requirements are want to edit docs..win office and pdfs etc....3g......etc.
    I short listed nokia e63.But i do not have much have an idea about the latest releases.......Please let me know.....the latest qwerty mob under 10000 with latest features....is Symbian os outdated or should catch up with android?

    If i have to choose a touch screen will typing is easy/comfortable on atouch screen?

    Regards,

    Don't go for Nokia E63.. it doesn't have HSDPA. Get any other one... there are a lot of them coming from Nokia...
    Try:
    Nokia E5
    Samsung Galaxy Pro B7510
    Samsung Galaxy 551

    Now we come to my query... I have samsung wave s8500. I love its audio quality and its default headset and its battery life during music playback....

    The problem is that my stock headset got ruined and samsung don't seem to have any more of those... what they offer me is something inferior instead.

    So... I need headset which has the left earplug connector smaller than the right one... and can also be used to answer calls. The headset should have excellent audio playback. since there is nothing samsung can offer me.. we will have to look elsewhere. could anybody please help me with a Nokia/LG/HTC/MOTO headset instead?

    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

        The 5800 headset will work perfectly. you can try the headphone tomorrow at the g2g. But to be very frank, get beg, borrow or steal a samsung headset.

        Alternatively, you can use a bluetooth stereo headset!!!

        • @antz.bin - try creative ep630, its got superb bass. And comes with 3different sized earbuds. Try to buy from a reputed store coz most ep630s available here are fakes. I got mine for 750 bucks.
          Or if u want a headset with inbuilt mic . Check this outBuy Skullcandy Inkd In-Ear Blue/Black Mic S2INBI-UB at Best Price in India Also find Specifications, Photos, Features & Reviews its got an in line mic and also comes with 2 different sized ear buds. but im not sure about the sound quality.
          Ps. I dont think a nokia or htc headset will be compatible with ur phone. (u cant use the handsfree function)

          • ^^ I own the skull-candy Inkd, didn't like it, try any Philips or Sennheiser (PMX/OMX series), bit pricey but if you want quality, these are the ones

                i would go with reaper. Skull candy would do the job perfectly. Should cost you around 800 or even less at national market.

                • SE Arc

                  Guys

                  Anyone got SE Arc?
                  Is that worth the money.
                  I had a look at it in Sony store.
                  The phone feels curvy but it is price ~29k

                    It is DEFINITELY a piece to hold and to Own (if u can afford a small premium courtesy SE brand)

                    Is that worth the money.
                    Satisfaction GUARANTEED for the amount u will pay, its available in-between 25.5~26.5k.

                    Last but not the Least :GINGERBREAD is awesome-funsome-xciting !
                    (if u're specs conscious - wait for Galaxy S2. Ur money will be spent wisely if Samsung prices it for 29-32k max.)
                    You must be the change you wish to see in the world

                          When i got the E72 when it was released, i was sitting in the terrace of our flat in Chennai(Kilpauk) to get a fix on my location. Woooo, it did lock down around 5 minutes with Network Assist on. It never worked inside my office or inside the flat or when i wanted some GPS assist when driving.

                          Not sure of any better models, but i read that the GPS on the SGS2 is freakingly accurate. Do check out HTC phones. The old touch pro still serves good for car navigation with GPS, hence the suggestion.

                            Thank you for the suggestion.. Actually I am looking for GPS enabled mobiles rather than GPS device.. It might be helpful when i miss the route during some night drives or when i could not find someone for a direction...

                              A personally tested GPS Mobile I can vouch strongly for GPS, is my own Nokia N8. I used it on a trip inside my dad's cage, and it was working accurately inside the car itself, with free navigation. I used Google Maps, and No maps download was needed!

                              Without it, We would have lost our way inside Sikar. But, it helped us a lot.

                              My only gripe was that it consumed serious battery, it lasted about 12 hrs only on the charge.

                                Good.. 12 hrs is much appreciated duration for continuous usage..
