1. Budget: 2k
2. Display type and size: any size will do
3. Dual sim: Preferably, although not compulsary
4. Preferred choice of brand: samsung is preferred. Other brands will also do if they are suitable
5. What camera option you want (flash, front facing camera): Not needed
6. Preferred operating system?: Any
7. Preferred connectivity options: 2G i think?
8. Primary use of handset: Phone calls (and nothing else)
9. Any specific mobile phones in consideration: Samsung guru 1200
10. Any other info that you want to share: I already own a note 3 which serves all other purposes except phone calls (i feel voice clarity is not good, speaker is not loud enough). Moreover i need a new phone to keep my official phone number on 24x7. Hence looking for a basic phone that offers spectacular signal reception and excellent voice clarity over phone calls. (with loud enough earpiece)


Basic research and i found samsung guru 1200 to be a suitable phone for my needs. But i am also interested in samsung guru music 2, it will allow me to listen to music without worrying about battery life. But wanted to know if samsung guru music 2 will offer similar music quality as an android phone?

Nokia 216, but it's a little over 2k.
But bigger than Nokia 130 with LCD screen
