Atlast, a android smartphone in the iPhone territory. Soon, Every manufacturer will launch a flagship at that price point. Don't be surprised if Next Generation iPhone gets priced at around 75k or even 1L.

^^ Iphone for 75k? Only spoilt kids will buy

If Android smartphones are sold for around 45k, then Apple will price iPhone around 75k or more for sure. Don't Forget that 64GB version of iPhone 5 sells at around 55k.

iphones have had predictable pricing - as well as predictable price drops since launch
think asus padfone is 65k+, been around for a while

3 butterflies with 3 butterface devices.

Meh.
I would be happy with a Nexus.

None can beat Apple, when comes to pricing & ofcourse with its design & tech.

Not just grammar, its wrong factually too. Its like newspapers these days.

Oh! It's better then when I unboxed it more than a year ago. What I meant was, "I would just be happy with a Nexus, if I ever think to upgrade from my P500."

Actually yeah none can beat apple in terms of pricing, intel has been going door to door begging for people to do just that
Their production is too streamlined... One belly button ordered across their entire lineup for five years and counting, no other oem has that luxury

I would like to see how it competes with other flagship products in the market.

The original Iphone was a design ahead of its time, but not anymore. The version 5 looks disproportionately tall to me. There are much better looking phones out there ATM.
And pricing? Apples have always been costlier than oranges, admit it. And its not going to change.
Tech? Debatable. I admire their processors and the optimisation of the browser/video player but thats nearly it. No NFC (dont care), no expandable memory (dont care unless 16G or lower internal memory), No LTE (dont care), No media transfer without itunes (I suppose this is still true)

I hope the Butterfly arrives soon, but anything above the Iphone 5's price its going to fail. A FullHD screen is not reason enough to price the phone exorbitantly high.
I'd assume a price of 42k that'd drop to 40 in a couple of months and stabilise.

I too feel the same about iPhone 5. They should have increased the screen size, diagnolly.

Meh!!

their aim is to make a phone to use and advertise it as "one hand operation phone"

Sounds like a Apple fanboy..

When I first read about Android many years ago, it read, the OS will make smartphone like features be seen in sub 5k devices and high end devices using the OS would be 10-15k.

Too good to be true: Yes

Apple Flagship - Rs.35k
Android Flagship - Rs.35k

What will happen in 2013

Lol, each new phone will be costlier than other. Some months before, it was S3, some weeks before it was Note 2, now it's that Butterfly and just within a couple of months it'll be S4.
And I'm only talking about normal phones here, those with 10 diamonds in front and gold plate on back is no phone to me.

Another phone nearing 40k category

Will a Rs 40,000 price tag hamper the BlackBerry Z10?s chances?

That has to be the ugliest phone in existence, kill it, kill it with fire.

PS: Look at last comment, and also specs, oh god, why.

Can we make out any difference between 720p and 1080p for a phone even under a microscope? but more processing power and battery life is definitely consumed.

Under microscope yes, naked not so. Battery life on DNA is impressive for a 5 incher check

Actually currently the costliest phone is by Nokia

Nokia has manufactured the latest Android device for Vertu, the Vertu Ti costing 3000euros or around 2lacs+... XD XD

^ Nokia recently sold Vertu to some private firm.

Yes but apparently they have manufactured this unit for them
