It should be atleast HD 1280 x 720 (Though FHD would be Better). 2) Minimum 1GB RAM. Current Sony Ericsson Xperia x10i freezes more often (512MB RAM). 3) Good Loudspeaker. (Xperia x10i's Loudspeaker is not much better as compared to its Internal Speaker). 4) No. of Sims does not matter (Dual Sim Dual Standby would be Better option since it would offer more VFM) 5) Minimum 8GB Internal Memory (16 GB or more would be Better) 6) Removable Battery. 7) Battery Backup should be Better. It should last 2-3 days with 24Hrs "Data Enabled" (12-15 Hrs on "WiFi Enabled"). Cannot specify the exact Capacity since it would vary according to the Display Size, Processor Management, etc. 8) Primary Camera should be able to click Good Quality Pictures (even in Low Light). Should have Genuine BSI Sensor (since I have read that BSI helps in catching better outdoor pictures in low-light). Some phones have BSI Sensor but only for namesake purpose. 9) Secondary Camera should also have Good Capturing Capability. 10) Cannot Comment on Sensors since I have not used any of them personally.withstupid 11) FM. 12) Reliability and Quality. (No matter what the brand is except Samsung. See Below). Samsung is a Big No-No. No offense meant towards Samsung Owners.:) I have used Samsung WP 6.5 B-7300 and S-5200. 7300 Phone used to Hang every now and then. I have to Soft Reset the phone using a Pin or Pen every now and then. Even the Service Center could not solve the problem even though I gave it to them 3-4 times under warranty period. 5200- My wife has it (or should I say had it since the phone is lying idle currently). The Display has paralysed. When the Slider is OFF (closed), the Phone "can be used". But when the Slider is ON (opened), the Display freezes or dots appear on the screen. If in this situation (display freeze or dots appearing), the Slider is closed, the display is back to normal. |

Yup, I think so too. Connecting to a higher rated charger should not damage the device, but connecting to a charger rated lower than what a device draws could. Or, so I think. |

EDIT: - Also I forgot to mention two more requirements-- Flash for Camera and Scratch-Resistance Glass (and if possible should not break if the phone accidentally falls from a height of 2-3 feet). I would like to keep this phone for at least 3 years. |

@abhibh, mrohit17, bhp_maniac, kpzen, behemoth.. By how much would I have to stretch my budget? 5) Clarification on Internal Memory Part-- I want Internal Memory to be of 8GB Minimum since Jelly Bean does not allow to move Apps to SD Card (or am I missing out something?). 7) Clarification on Removable Battery Part- I need a Phone with Removable Battery so that I would not have to give it the ASC for replacing battery. I hate to hand over phone to the ASCs even for a small glitch for- a) They take their own sweet time to solve the problem. There is no guarantee that the problem will get solved. b) There is no guarantee how the phone will be handled at ASCs (I have read on the Online Shopping Websites User Reviews that the ASCs don't handle the phone carefully and treat it as if its their own property). Please suggest the Brands/Models which would seldom give any problem.

Sir, i.e. what we are here to discuss. @all.. How are the following phones- 1) iBall 4.7 G Cobalt (Downside 400gms weight, 4.7" Screen)- Is the Total Screen Size (From corner to corner diagonally) 4.7" or the display size is 4.7"? Battery is 2200mAh, And display is 4.7". So how's the battery backup? 2) Karbonn S9- Battery is big 2600mAh for 5.5" Screen. Does this phone give good backup with such battery? 3) Spice Pinnacle FHD 525- Is there Expandable Memory option in case of this phone? What is battery backup for this phone? How are the reports for above three phones? |
