    Guys I am looking for a good android smartphone and have been a symbian loyalist for ages.I would not want to be left behind so was looking to upgrade to either WP7 or Android.

    The ones i ve shortlisted and checked out under WP7 are

    1. Lumia 800
    2. Samsung Omnia W

    The OS has been the best of all featured on both the phones and nokia build quality and hardware is way better. Downside of the lumia was its pretty pricey at 30k and the screen is under 4".Also the marketplace is yet to grow and syncing files/Data is only through zune.These kind of limits put me down.

    So started checking out options in Android in the price range of 30k.Here are those

    1.Moto RAZR XT 910
    2.Samsung Galaxy SII
    3.Samsung Galaxy Note

    Now i am really inclined towards the RAZR cos of the looks and the acclaimed durability with all the water and shock resistant body and panels.Otherwise the Note has an upper hand in all these.

    And i founr the RAZR to be more practical and now that Motorola is in Google's hands i am expecting better support and updates.

    Guys What is your take on this.??

    I've used SGS2 for 6 months and currently using NOTE... Will suggest u go for SGS2 if u are in a hurry. It is a gem of a smartphone, already had enough accolades under its name. NOTE is something u cant use free hand, it demands HUGE RESPECT bcoz of its size.

    Further, if u can wait for a month or two, there will be quad-cored smartphones coupled with ICS in market...

      You can avoid this by using any different software for watching images, there are many nice s/w's available.
      With me, strangely this problem occurred only once last night, rest now its working fine. You can try by selecting all and then Open With WPV, every photo will be opened in a new window, then close all windows. Next time problem will be resolved.
      Thanks buddy for your help...... "every photo will be opened in a new window".....i think this is a good idea...

        • I have a reasonably dumb question.
          The prices of all phones are bound to fall, so I want to know how long before SGS II falls to 25k?

                Not a dumb question, When SGS 3 release...it eventually come down,but then we all want to have SGS 3.

                I don't know what happen SGS 2 retailing on line as 26k+ during October 2011....now everyday price going north towards 30k.
