Guys, suggest me a music phone for 10k. My priorities are:
1. music quality should be good, especially on earphones.
2. Looks should be decent
3. EDGE and if possible 3G
4. Camera not so important.
:smile:
Thanks

Samsung i450 is currently available for 13k. It's a new release. Awesome phone. Wait for few weeks. It's price is gonna come down.

If you do not like Samsung phones, here are your options:

1) Nokia XpressMusic 5700
2) SE W580i
3) Nokia 5610
4) Nokia N73me.

All these phones have EDGE and great music quality.

But my pick would be Samsung i450 or else it will be 5700

The white/blue edition looks super sexy.

i haven't heard music on i450. But looking that specs (Bang & Olufsen technology on i450), it should easily beat W660i

If you want Symbian, then go for Samsung i450 instead of Nokia 5700. Nokia 5700 got sucky sound compared to i450.

5700 for symbian and i450/w890 for awesome music clarity...

when cam is not so imp then don't go with N73 ( overall it is better than all in that range )

5700 is cool or get W580I and N91 is the best if you can find it

For ur said specs, w660i suits perfectly. Though it doesn't have EDGE. Since music is ur primary need dis phone is a good choice. It also includes Track ID music recognition software..

.............................
K530i happens to be a twin model of dis phone and you can save 2k if u choose k530i.. Later on phone can be flashed if ur not satisfied wit the k530i.
