better wait for the dual core version of these if you want to go with Micromax

Sony Xperia Tipo is a good option for you.

A100 is available for RS 9800. Dual core will be above his budget

I have read rewievs on websites like igyaan and flipkart, saying that micromax and karbonn products doesnt perform well. And i am a 1 time investor and want a decent android devince with good performance on a long run basis.

Many tipo users complaints that the touch creates trouble, and faulty handsets as well.
Although i liked tipo n tipo dual but aftr readng such reviews i took patience and decided to hunt again for a good phone with android 4 and 3.5" or more.
I can stretch my budget till 11K max.
plz help and also suggest me some upcoming devices satiisfyng my needs and budget, and their releasing dates as well.
Thanks

buddy..considering your requirements, u need to raise ur budget to get mid-end android having all these features...entry level phones within 11k won't fulfill ur needs...

12-13k (still entry-level i prefer to say) price phones having ICS out of the box:

Huawei Ideos X5 Pro
LG Optimus L5
HTC Desire C

and I don't think manufacturers will release JB update for these phones as even high end phones are still awaited to be on JB..

also look for Sony Xperia Ray, Neo V, Mini...all are running on ICS and should be below 15k now..

Should i consider tipo n tipo dual....? can u pls tl about its performance...
And what about micromax or karbonn their performance, durability etc..??

^^^^
I won't suggest you to buy micromax or karbon etc mobile phone.
Get something from Sony or HTC, there is no better option available in Samsung so that doesn't come in the league in that price bracket.

If warranty is not an issue for u then look for xperia neo v but at your own risk. It will cost u around 12-13k max and fulfill all your needs. Else go for mentioned branded phones with warranty.
