Saw Motorola Flipout at Letsbuy today - Buy Motorola Flipout at Best Price in India - Also find Specifications, Photos, Features & Reviews

Using RCOMLB1 Coupon it Comes Down to Rs.7,499

My Questions Are -
  • 1.Is it a good phone for that price? Is It the Best?
  • I compared it to another Similar priced phone - Motorola FlipOut vs. Motorola CHARM - GSMArena.com and saw that the only disadvantage is the absence of Gorilla Glass display.
    Should This Be a crucial factor against the purchase?
  • I also read That Motorola Will not be releasing any froyo / Gingerbread update for flipout.Is it worth Rooting?
  • 4. Are good Cases and Screenguards available online for flipout?
My Requirements are Occasional GPS and 3g (For Downloading) ,Crisp Display with Neutral colors and Good build Quality



Last But Not The Least please recommend The best possible phone Under 3.5K (Strict :()

I'd rather increase budget just a little and buy a LG Optimus One P500(around 10k, expect to be less)

OR if you want a big screen + QWERTY, increase budget by 1.5k & get Galaxy 551

Read this you will flipout :p
Thinking of gettin' a Moto Flipout - xda-developers

Go for the samsung galaxy pro(deal of the week) or samsung galaxy 551 but its battery life sucks. My uncle owns 551 and trust me its battery sucks
So PRO wud be much better,faster.

Both the above phones have no community support though.

Another option would be to go for micromax A70 for 8k.

My recommendation wud be to spend 1.5k more and get the LG optimus one @9k. World of difference.
