I am looking for a phone in the price range of 10k rupees($160).
Here is what i need...
1. Good mic and and a ear piece, I talk a lot!
2. Easy messaging.
3. Fast and easy web browsing, social networking, IM and email.
4. Friendly & vibrant UI with good graphics. I find the symbian OS pretty dull and boring. I used N-gage long back, not sure bout the S60 on E63.
5. Good quality audio & video playback.
6. Free apps availability..i just love them. Entertainment widgets, games, etc. Dont wanna get bored while traveling in trains everyday.
7. No crashing and hanging and type lags plz. Heard a few complaints about the E63 on this front
8. And of course durability. Want it to last for atleast two years. Ok before you ask..im not a very very careful user. So need something thts sturdy.
Quite a lot of demands actually, i love the iphone, its got it all.. *sighs*..but keeping the budget in mind i narrowed down on these three handsets. Nokia E63, Blackberry curve 8520 or Samsung star3G.
Now can somebody please help me selecting the one. Having a tough time...all of them have their own advantages. E63 has a killer processor but lacks the kind of UI i want, star has a good UI, nice widgets but slower gprs speed. Curve is the winner...but then..the display isn't gr8. Plz help me with this. Suggest me some other handsets as well.
