Galaxy S available for 20K on Flipkart.

IMO Go for The Galaxy S as it has better screen and overall hardware!! Also It has 16GB in built instead of 4GB of S LCD model!!

Another model worth consideration is The Nexus S. It,too, is an amazing phone!! :D

Well it seems to me that Nexus S has been discontinued. Check out Flipkart, LetsBuy, Infibeam. Not available there.
Also my local retailer is out of stock.
The only way you can get it now is that a local shopkeeper might have it or EBay.

You can also look into HTC Desire S, in the same range and a good phone

Also if you can increase your budget do check out the HTC Incredible S.

HTC Desire S has seen a price drop to around 21K which should be a good buy:smile:

Guys, how is Optimus Black as compared to Defy+ ?

I've been waiting for Defy+ for many days and now loosing my patience ... Is Optimus Black a good enough phone? I don't find many differences between these two phones?

Please help me decide if I should still wait (for Defy+) or get the Optimus Black instead ?

Defy+ vs Optimus Black?

I would pass both and go for the original Samsung Galaxy S any day...

I am not too keen for that because is an old phone ..

Still I'd like to know your reasons for recommending it ..

Compared to Optimus Black, Samsung Galaxy S has superior hardware... Better screen, better processor, better graphics, better sound chip, excellent community support...

Defy+ won't be available in India for many more months...

If you don't like the Galaxy S, then you might want to increase your budget a bit and get the Desire S or Incredible S...

LG built quality is very mediocre. No contest between it and Samsung in high-end category of smartphones...

I would go for the LG Optimus Black.

I would go for the LG Optimus Black.

Why?

Samsung Galaxy S is better... better screen, better GPU, excellent custom ROMs and community support...

What does Optimus Black have that Galaxy S does not?
