If you want dual SIM, then Grand 2 would be a great choice.
For single SIM, Xperia SP is a great choice.

Reasons: Samsung & Sony are much more reliable companies than Alcatel, so better to invest 20k in a reliable brand

Grand 2 is highly overrated phone!

Specs are even worst than Gionee!

Avoid it please!
Go SP!

Alcatel is a very reputed brand offshore!
If you are willing to take risk on after sales service go for it!

baring ASS, Alcatel is good, heck you can pick their products eyes closed.

IMO Xperia SP is a safe bet.

@OP, be safe and buy SP. Even ZR was around 18k a few days ago on Infibeam.
