    • Finally this Independence day my savings got freedom
      and it shell out 17500 only for irresistable Samsung WAVE!!!

      After googling a lot and discussion over various forums finally got my hands on WAVE!

      Seriously guys it's superAMOLED screen is mouthwatering & incredible .
      No comparison..

      Will post its some exceptional photo's i clicked in panormic view..

      I compared this phone with Iphone 3g as well, but couldnt find any one reason to not to buy it

      Its battery life is uncompareable with any other smartphone out here but still is there any tips for Wave's performance tuning.?

      Looking to buy 8gb/16gb microsd card (hope i would get better online deal rather than buying from any mobile shop)

        As far as the price is concerned it comes for around 12k though I'm not sure about it...

          A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

              Star 3G

              HTC Tattoo

              I have been looking for a new phone too since sometime and hence did an extensive research on available sets in market.Budget 15-18k max I zeroed in on Nokia N97 mini(18.5k,bangalore) but The new Nokia C-6 is almost a photocopy of the former sans the inbuilt memory & a couple of features & is expected to be priced at around 13-14k. Been waiting for it since last 3 months but now teh wait seems too long. Can anyone suggest any fone in that range(<18k).

              My Requirements :

              Full Touch + Qwerty
              Wi-Fi
              3G
              GPS

                Considering your requirement you watch out sony's Xperia X10 pro (do not go for Xperia mini) it will suffice all your requirement, infact it has android based platform so you can actually squeeze lot of application over . also its upgradeable to 2.1 (eclair) it has qwerty key pad as well. screen size / clarity / sound is unbeatable..

                It's newly launched so not sure if it's easliy available at your location or not... must buy phone (HD-after upgrade/capacitive touchscreen -all at 15000 rs only)

                • i sold my omnia HD and bought a wave last week..i must admit,its really a awesome phone to have.super AMOLED is far more superior to OMLED which was in OMNIA HD..wave is really swapier, 1GHZ processor does a great job.its slim and stylish.
                  it cud have been a iPhone 3GS killer if it wud have been released on 09 along with 3GS. Samsung has done a great job by tweaking the android with Samsung's touchwiz and giving it a iPhone OSX experience.its equal to iPhone in many aspects except 4 the music quality.
                  the picture and video quality is ultimate..really a hd video capturing device.

                    Wave uses samsung's own home grown Bada OS and not android. Killer pricing of the phone.

                      Am not sure which one you talking about. If its Xperia Mini Pro then I have already checked it out and it sports a really small screen to start with(2.55 inches) which drove me away. I need atleast 3/3.2 inches display

                      rest we have Vivas Pro and X2 from Sony which are way out of my budget

                      • Your Choice of OS..

                        Which OS do you like more...?

                        Apples mac on Iphones, Nokias Symbian or Googles Android or Windows Mobile...


                        I have been a Symbian guy for all these years. Absolutely in love with it but sort of overgrown with Nokia's lacklustorus display...!

                        This question might sound a little noob-ish since I dont have any/much experience with anything apart from Symbian....

                        I am majorly interested in direct comparison between Imac and Android..keeping symbian as the base...

                        • @Devilpulsarian:- I have an android and it is way way better than the outdated Nokia UI. In Nokia, u need to keep digging menu after menu to reach the actual menu , where as with the Android and IPhone u dont need to do that, and the screen widgets are much better.

                          @happybiking:- I use the samsung spica 5700, it is the cheapest Android handset available in the market if u can find one , i paid 12.5K, should be available for less than 12K now, but u need to search for the handset a lot, I am not sure of the availability now. It has every feature u want in a smartphone, except pinch and zoom.

                            Have already checked it out bro. Doesn't have a physical qwerty. I meant physical qwerty and not just display one.
