Hi guys as the title suggests I'm looking for a good smartphone for a family member.
Usage will be mostly for Camera and sometimes maybe music.
Since it's for a person who is not so techy and for sure will not play games not looking too much for high end.
Someone here in TDF had suggested that windows phone is easier for elderly people due to ease of operation etc.
I already have bought redmi1s this week for another family member so will not go for it again.
I really missed the Amazon Deal on Nokia Lumia 625 which went for around 9k.
I'm leaning more towards this.
Budget is around 6k but can be stretched if it's really worth it.
So primarily two Features
1. Good Camera
2. Easy to use
3. Preferably should have front camera
4. Decent Music Player.

Options 1 & 3 are important.
Other options considered were lumia 525 and 530

Birthday is around first week of November so can wait.

Kindly suggest.

Guys please help me decide between Lumia 620 or Lumia 625

I think the best option for you is Asus Zenfone 4 A450CG, but you'll have to wait as it is out of stock right now.

If you can rely on MMX, then there is an excellent device, Unite 2. Got all the required features, a friend bought it from a local shop for 6100, so it's in your budget

Thinking about windows phone.

grab the 620 or 625 if you can if you want a front cam
otherwise in android the Moto E is a fine phone

if you have increased your budget to 10k then get zenphone 5 and after getting it make sure that battery saver is always on that way it will last around one day.
