Hi,

I live in Kolkata, India and I own a Nokia 6260. After 3 years of loyal service, it's somewhat worse for wear and I'm looking to replace it. One of my prime requirements is the Symbian OS, since it allows such an wealth of applications like good browsers and Adobe Acrobat Reader. Of course Windows/Linux will be even better in that respect.

My emphasis is on imaging, which should be good enough to pass off as a digital camera for everyday purposes. I'm looking for a moderately high resolution camera with decent video recording and playback capabilities. Also required is the capability to read different types of documents such as .doc, .pdf etc.

Other capabilities I'm looking for are expandable memory and a screen that is not very small. Of course, a stylish look (something unfortunately lacking in Nokia phones) is an added plus point. My budget is within Rs. 18000. Both Nokia and Sony Ericsson are okay, but I've heard that SE can be less reliable/more error-prone than Nokia. Is this true?

Features like Bluetooth, USB connectivity are of course standard features and they will come with all phones in this range.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I'm zeroing in on the N series as my best bet. N93 is beyond my range and SE does not seem fond of symbian, but the N73 and N80 are similarly priced. What are the main differences and how do they compare?
 
N80 Battery lasts for a day and K790 has no OS,you get stuck with whatever SE gives you. Try N73, check it out on the forums and you'll see it's way better than both in general and most technical aspects. Try the link below;
