Confused between
Samsung Chat C322 or Samsung Chat 222 Plus(since cheaper & camera not needed)
Nokia X2-01 or Nokia Asha 200
& Sony Ericsson Txt (most expensive but looks cool)

the phone is mainly for my dad
he will use call & type only

so thinking is it wise to get a low end model or a decent one
so that someone can use it later if decides he decides to change phones

X2-01 is discontinued. Asha 200 it is.

SE TXT doesn't have any file browser. Won't recommend any SE featurephone as Sony discontinued that line.

Go for the Asha. Don't even think of buying the SE phone.
