Re: Smartphone buying advice --budget between 25k to 36k

Woops..!!!
my bad dint saw that DUAL SIM anyways if u can extend your budget by 3k get S Duos.
if not then get Xperia E Duos both are better in terms of A.S.S and reliability

@op
forget 1 gb ram in this budget
For dual sim check Lenovo A800 ~9.5k but has ICS & no info on JB update. It also lack Camera flash.

Op if you need to decide between S duos and E duos, get Xperia E Duos.. Even if it has smaller screen, its a no brainer for not going for Adreno 200 for 13k in the year 2013
Samsung, your pricing sucks
