Don't know the logic, but I'll try it the other way around and see. | |

| ![]() Question to iPhone 4 Users who are using/have used a recent Android device also. There is this offer from Apple for the iPhone 4@20600 for exchange with any decent smartphone (Rs 6000 for the old one discounted from the iphone 4 price of Rs 26600). Question is: Is it worth buying an iPhone 4 at this price, considering it was originally released 3 years back. Background: I own an Xperia Sola and am not happy with it (Poor Battery life, no more upgrades, generally slow for my use). I am not willing to spend above 20K on a phone and none of the Androids under 20K interest me. my take is that manufacturers focus more on the high end and the low end of the market and the middle range is not given due importance. No retailer is willing to give more than Rs 3000 ![]() Just noticed that Flipkart is selling it at 24900 with a 10% Citibank Credit Card Cash Back which makes it around 22500 without any need to give in the new phone!! But my question still remains. Last edited by Rajeevraj : 27th July 2013 at 23:09. Reason: additional content |

| ![]() With majority iphone using countries moved to iPhone5 and hoping for the next upgrade (iPhone 5G? or iPhone 6?), I can only think - leftover iPhone4 from other countries are dumped to India. The ads are splashed everywhere to "upgrade" to iPhone4. Really? upgrade? For new iPhone buyers, I feel minimum should be iPhone4s if not iPhone5. |

I remember how laggy the iPhone 3G was with iOS4, and boy was it terrible. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I still have the 4. I didnt upgrade to 5 as I could not see enough value then. I am very eager to replace with the new release the moment its out. I also have the Ipad Mini. I am running the latest OS and it works well. For an absolutely new smartphone user, 4 at this cost makes sense. And for many owning an Apple product is a status symbol. So this strategy works in India. The sales numbers prove that. |

I finally decided to go with the Nexus 4 which I can get for 20K with some coupons I had. Ensures I get the latest OS updates and plain Android Experience. | ||||

Isn't there a method where the contacts are copied to memory card, copied and pasted on the contacts folder in Windows and then synced via itunes? Does it work? | |

| ![]() Send the .vcf file as an attachment to the email account configured in the iPhone. After that when you open the attachment in iPhone, it will ask if you want to save the contacts to your phone. |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() Here is one good source about the possible launch of iphone 5s and lite in september alongwith the rationale as to why it will launch in September http://www.tomshardware.com/news/iPh...013,23701.html One of the strong reasons (apart from clearing of unsold stock) why apple is giving discounts (rare in apple's recent history) on iphone 4. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/App...Pad,23457.html |
