New Android Phone budget upto 6/7 k !!! Suggestion

Hi friends

My brother is looking to buy a new Android Phone his budget is 6 to 7 k (but want to keep as low as possible)

1. Budget? -- upto 6 k (but not necessarily that much, can go for low priced or little bit above the budget)

2. Display type and size? touch UI, size any

3. Dual sim? Yes

4. Preferred choice of brand? Any

5. What camera option you want (flash, front facing camera)? not preference, but if any flash or front facing included its good

6. Preferred operating system? (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, etc). -- Android

7. Preferred connectivity options (3G, 4G ready). Wifi must, 3gb, bluetooth

8. Primary use of handset (multimedia, camera, internet, gaming etc)? general use, and music watsapp, facebook, browsing, youtube etc

9. Any specific mobile phones in consideration? yes liked the Lenov A369i, but service is bad i guess also need good battery life and sound

10. Any other info that you want to share --- must have wifi, dual sim, memory card slot, radio, and good build quality

thinking to buy online or from store during this coming festival season, (15 august, Ganesha festival etc) so we get good discount

moto e! period.

Only Moto E fits requirements.

Yup that's why it is the second option.

I too need a phone 6/7k maximum urgently....
What about Asus Zenfone 4 A400CG? It has a secondary cam compared to Moto E and has an autofocus camera... I just need it for my mom for the most basic purposes - Taking some pics and whatsapp. What do you guys suggest?

good phone,great screen,slight app incompatibility(very rare) , bad battery backup(which shouldnt be more than moto e anyway)
both phones are good but Asus has the edge with specs etc

Don't go over to Lenovo when great options from Motorola and Asus are already in the market. If you can, you should wait till Redmi 1S launches, so you'll have one more option.

how is redmi s1, when it will launch in india,

one thing i noticed, that all low budget phone has crappy battery , at least 2000 mh battery should be standard now

M

^Redmi 1s can be regarded as moto g killer better front and back camera,expandable memory and it costs almost half of what moto g is available for.

but where can i get it, any reviews as yet

Redmi 1s will supposedly be launched somewhere during the last week of august. It will be available through flipkart only.

And can only be bought within 3 seconds after looking the current trend.

do they have service center in india, i heard it does not have google play, is it right, the spec looks great for the price hope all company start packing more capacity batterty now

K

but id wait if i were you,xiaomi mi3 also had alot of issues after launch like software issues,bricked phones,boot loops,hardware issues with the screen,speaker and camera
moto and asus are better established

^^service is bad,trust me,my friend sold his mi3 because he couldnt get his speaker fixed and got a moto g instead
hes much happier now

hmm then i think i shoudl go with Karbonn A12 star, its only 4k and good feature, any one here used this phone, please tell me how it is, and what option from micromaz

4k smartphones aren't worth it. buy a feature phone instead.

^^true dat,least in smartphones is the moto e imho,its the best at that price otherwise feature phones beat "dumb"(4k) smartphones in everyday tasks and are much more reliable

for now its best to wait for Moto G2. Motorola may slash the price of E down to 5-6k.

Xolo Q510s & Q610s ???

i would have gone for motorola, but they dont support memorry card, (very moronic idea by motorola)

now i think i should buy any micromax, lava, or lenovo cheap phone, which has wifi, dual sim, and good battery, that will serve the purpose

- - - Updated - - -

also what are the good feature phone in aroudn 3 to 4 k

which have wifi, dual sim, memory expansion

Xolo Q510s should suffice your requirements. 1.3GHz quad core cortex A7 + 1GB RAM should provide smooth performance with android 4.4

By the way, Moto E has SD card slot & great battery life

i had xolo gone in 6 months, ok i will check moto e,

any new phones coming soon in 5 to 7 k category with good battery and good features

i will check moto e reviews

Yes,Indian version have google play.Its a very good phone for mere 6k what more anyone can expect? you can find reviews on youtube.

I have suggested you moto but moto G has been already retired I will not suggest Moto E for bad camera and lack of front camera.
