Rachit - It's a crap application; no wonder ppl rated it so poor

Tried to post from mobile 4 times; it throws network error only when posting, not for reading the posts. Too bad!!!

Good dude. I will try the Solar option and share my experience by the end of this year. Right now prices are on the higher side. During holiday season Prices usually come down, let me ask my friends staying in US to get me one. My sole intention is to stay off grid.

1.should be able to view pdf and doc files.

Please suggest some good phones

NOTE: I am having the habit of droping the phone quiet often. So phone should not be delicate.

Check GSMARENA and narrow down your choice of phones. Then compare the prices through online portals. Then give us options to choose between.. Else this discussion will go on and on..

Which OS would like prefer ? Your choice depends on it...

ok now having 2 phones in mind
1. samsung s5830
2.htc wildfire

Galaxy Ace is a better option but if u can increase your budget to 15k, there are much better fones available.

You can also consider Nokia Lumia 610 which is a Windows fone with 3.7" screen.

HTC Desire C @ 13k is also good option with ICS.

Need a phone..

Hows this? Its a lil outta budget,though.
Nokia Asha 311: Price in India, Reviews, Specification: Flipkart.com

Anything else that'll do the above tasks without a hassle and still be within the said budget??

nokia asha is not an android phone. and believe me, the world has moved on... moved on to android phones. the kind of experience an android phone gives is miles ahead of symbian or even blackberry. and for internet usage, an android phone is the best bet. in your budget range, the screen sizes you will get are morw or less same, still try to find atleast 3.2 screen size for internet viewing.

android phones have an added benifit of getting a lot of free softwares.

even i am using samsung galaxy pop which costed me 8000 rupees.

my suggestion is increase you budget to 8000 rupees and get the best android that comes in that budget, even if it means waiting for a few months or cutting your other expenses, but its worth it.

try samsung or i will say even micromax is not bad. stay away from karbonn.

regarding battery backup, you wont get extra long battery backup time with feature rich mobile phones as these extra multimedia / internet / android sucks battery. but still its worth it.

one more thing, there are few tablet phones available in 6000 rupees on internet and homeshop18. check those out.

ABikerAtHeart - My friend said, Nokia is a dying brand; I realized it after buying my XPeria U though I overshot my budget by 5K. Go for android/icecreamsandwich or anything, worth every penny.

You won't be able to realize the full potential of Android unless you get yourself at least a mid range phone. The issue with lower end phones is that navigation won't work due to lack of magnetometer and you will be left wanting for more. And the important fact is low internal memory. Below 10k I would suggest HTC explorer, LG Optimus one, Samsung Galaxy Y - resolution is poor. Save up and buy a better phone than the ones mentioned here. Else go for any Nokia, BB or whichever platform; shouldn't make much of a difference.

Guys an interesting find. Check this URL and see what Apple was capable of doing in 1997. The device named Apple Newton....


Am no apple fan boy. I myself use Samsung Galaxy S2, Newton is the grandpa of the modern day tablets and Galaxy Note.

@Princebro, aargee Sir and li3ly rascala: Thank you for your valuable input.

My initial plan was to buy a phone that I could use to connect my laptop (that I intend to buy along with a phone) to the www at early morning or late night, while keeping me connected to whatsapp during the day. (Hope I haven't complicated it.)

I intended to use the laptop for writing down my t'logs and watching movies.

But with the suggestion of a tablet, I'm in a fix.

1. Buy a cheap 3G phone + a simple netbook

or

2. Buy a good tablet with GSM sim compatibility?


I'm however more inclined to the former since tabs dont come with a full-fledged (chiclet?) keyboard (or do they?) + the good ones are on the other side of my budget.

My budget for both is 25k. Would still prefer something within 20.

Also, do you suggest buying a preused Galaxy Note or anything for that instance?
