He probably meant nokia 1662 . +1 for that.

Low end samsung have horrible call quality. I wouldn't use those even it was free.

@maheshr .. Samsung Guru 1410 (*www.gsmarena.com/samsung_e1410-2647.php)
is real Value for money... Many of my team members are using it... they are really n-joying it. It has Blue tooth. The battery life is simply excellent , 11 hours of talktime...

Recently I purchased one for my relative for Rs 2500 (without memory card).
You should have a look at it. Its really worth man :)

In theory 1202 have better battery life but in my personal experience the battery dont last for more than 4 days for my friend . Whereas my aunt's 1661 lasts a week with ease .

Btw 1203 is really small should be more durable. I also prefer bw because its easier to use outdoor.
