      Defy+ is like a SUV in mobile phones because its rugged, it can with-stand water splashes and much more....

      Almost all capacitive touch screens will feel similar in similar price range.
      I saw a new Motorola model called Fire XT, with a secondary cam for about 12.5-13K. You can have a look at that as well!

      Got it for 31k about 9 days ago... Its a S2 on steriods/NOs as u can say in biking language. Simply Mind Boggling creation by Koreans.
      Congrats bro-looks like the price has reduced very soon after launch-it launched for 35K!
      I guess it would be even better if available for 27K!

      • My samsung corby txt gt b3210 was stolen on 25/11/11 & its mobile tracker function was not activate. So is there any way I can trace it. Police is also not taking any action they are saying its your matter not ours.

        • What phone?

          Guys I need a new phone, I guess this anroid thing seems to be the in thing these days, but which one? Budget=as low as possible.

          Main useage/requirements

          1) Good call quality and volume
          2) Reasonable photo quality, flash not essential, but wouldn't be a bad thing
          3) GPS, this should work well with little lag and directions should be clearly visible
          4) Good Wifi connectivity/range
          5) durable, I have a habit of dropping phones on occasion, sometimes I throw all my toys out my pram and the mobile is usually the first to go
          6) easy to use out the box, i don't have patience with gadgets immediately.
          7) It shouldn't freeze/lock up
          8) battery life

          So far I have singled out a few, according to features and price

          1) Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670 Rs 8750
          2) Huawei Ideos X2 Rs 7499
          3) Micromax A70 Rs7500
          4) LG Optimus ME P350 Rs 6599
          5) Dell XCD 35 Rs 7999
          6) Samsung S5560 Rs 8599
          7) Karbonn A1 Rs 4790 nice price, but any good
          8) Samsung S5570 Rs 7500
          9) Alcatel 990 Rs 8498

          So far the Dell looks the best bang for my bucks, is there anything else?

          Please suggest as this is really frying my brain!
          Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
          More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
          Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
          Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
          Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

                My friend just got it few days back. The processor & the features you getting within the price offered is fairly descent I would say. Camera is nothing great though, But works better when used in proper lights, preferably outdoors in sunlight..!!

                  Ah, I generally need the camera for indoors work, as I have a tendency to forget my proper camera.

                  • Motorola Fire XT is a really loaded phone for the price (Rs.8.8K)-it comes with a front VGA cam, 3.5" capacitive screen, 5mp AF cam with flash, 1540mAh battery, 800MHz processor!
                    Only downside is the resolution-320x480, but one can't really expext anything more-the phone is also shipping with Gingerbread preloaded!

                      I ruled this one out earlier as the camera only has fixed focus, auto focus is a must, also has a 600mhz cpu, the one with 800mhz cpu is around 12k, I guess I can rule out a few from the list if they don't have auto focus.

                              ok thanks for the information buddy.
                              If you are ok with Modding, Then go for Motorola Defy and Install CM7.1.

                              You'll get Android 2.3.7
                              10 point multitouch
                              Extreme Ruggedness (water resistant upto 1 meter, Tested)
                              Scratch resistant,
                              nice Camera,
                              Amazing voice clarity
                              1Ghz Processor (easily overclockable to 1.2)

                              Note: Defy and Defy+ are exactly same. No changes at all except higher battery in Defy +. Defy is underclocked to 800Mhz and Defy + is actual 1Ghz.
