Guys I am going to buy an android smartphone my budget is 30 K.

I want a phone with good camera MP doesn't matter all that matters is quality. And a good hardware too Xperia s seems outdated in terms of performance.

Also I want phone with good looks not like plastic crap like s3. I am thinking to buy Xperia s or HTC One X. Is there any alternative out there which can outperform these devices in terms of look in the given budget?

I also noticed about HTC One X red tint in camera shots is it really bearable?

I am having weird and laggy entry level LG P500.

Every suggestion would be very helpful.

You don't like S3 then One X is the only best option available.

Note 2 is too big for a phone, too big to be carried in a pocket, he will need a ladies purse to carry it around.

ROFL imagine a ladies purse around my shoulder and note 2 inside it :p

One x seems perfect but what about the red tint?

Sounds like a software problem, maybe an one x user can help you here.

Don't just assume stuff. Have you ever owned a Note? Note 2 is rumored to be the same size as the Note with just .2" bigger screen. Being a Note user myself, I can say that the Note is not at all that big as people who haven't actually used it claim it to be. I am by no means physically large. I'm rather skinny and wear 28" waist jeans but still it's pretty comfy to put in my pocket. You definitely don't need a purse to carry it around.

^^ No, but I have tried it in a samsung demo booth, its too big for phone, I stand by my views.

PS: I can't just keep a phone in a pocket, I have to put the headphone pouch+amp there, so putting a note+all those stuff is bit tight.

Note is not that big, but its the biggest phone. I put in my jeans pocket and it was okay for me, thanks to its slim design.
Better to go for demo, my friend has note and he doesnt carry it in a ladies purse :lol:

^^ Maybe. Had bought a couple of Levis' before getting the Note and realized that their pockets are too small (even for the S2). So bought a few more jeans but before trying it on to see the fit, or even seeing the price tag for that matter, I put my Note in it's pocket to see if it'd fit :p

Just see the advantages of this phone, it even helps you buy new clothes :p

No he has 36" waist lee jeans may be thats why. :-D

Note is some kind of different gadget it is a phablet (phone + tablet) and the person who do lot of writing work and want to enjoy a big screen display.
As I said, before purchasing note its must to a take demo.

Actually a good demo was what provoked me to get the Note in the first place. This fella at the Samsung Smartphone Cafe was kind enough to give me good 1 hour long demo. He showed me all the features, the S-Pen and even let me put it in my pocket.

So anyone looking to purchase one should definitely go for a good demo.
