can you please give correct details like price, model no. spec etc.....

if you are ready to buy online, Samsung E3210 @ 2.4k (apply Rs.200 coupon code) from HomeShop18 but is currently out of stock. else get Samsung Hero E2232. Apply the Rs.200 code again and you have it for 1950 only :smile:

i dont have the coupon code... and how is the service of that homeshop 18

homeshop18 Coupon Codes. google and you'll find more.

Service is fine but slow. in case of Flipkart you order and within 48hrs the item will be in your hand. with HS18, it takes 5-7days. brought a mobile recently from there and used coupon codes to lower price.

OK which one is good from

Samdung E2230 and Nokia C1-02

Nokia C1-02 would be a better deal.. specs are fine.. keypad is good, lil small in size too..

E2230 has keypad prob, but E2232 is fine..i am using this phone from last 6 months.. it has good battery backup,better keypad, VGA camera(nt present in nokia c1-02)..

camera is not necessary,, but what is the price and internet use on your phone

i purchased at 2k from letsbuy.. i dnt use internet on this mobile.. it has small screen..

i hadn;t purchased this nokia coz i felt this model ugly looking.. neither i like its font and screen... my aunty is using this phone for arnd 8-9 months..

Samsung Hero E2232

Buy Hero E2232
1. Dual Sim
2. Bluetooth With A2DP

my father using a samsung Duos phone.. the problenm is that you can insert two sim card but you can not use both the card at same time.. you have to switch between the cards and only one card will be active at a time..

and dual sim is not require.. it will save me couple of hundred

and what is Bluetoot with A2DP

i think there is some mis-understanding..

in E2232 your both sim will be active at the same time.. bt once you recieve a call on SIM1, during that time the other person trying on SIM2 will get 'Not reachable'

what if i dont find any of this phone in market.. what are the alternatives..

thanks for your help.. just can anyone confirm the internet speed on the samsung phone

also i heard that it comes loaded with youtube, facebook etc app preloaded and also you can download from samsung app.. is that correct

also how is the music experience, how is sound

congo

thanks...

the picture quality is better than i expected..

the outdoor photos are really good.. the camera is OK for occasional purpose..

but those Facebook, Youtube, or social networking is gimmick. it is jus the shortcut. and also the phone does not support large file as it gives some Java error and also on silent mode the phone plays the the message alert sound..

i will give it 6/10 rating..
