5k investment in grand not big a problem, but i was reading the reviews of 610 and 710 (or 510), i found them problems that i dont want in my phone, thats why gave it a second thought and then i realised i need HELP!!
IMO Get LG L9 then
D
umm, its LG......?? plus i think it has 5mp camera, grand 8mp...
^ grand got cr@p resolution 
Screen size ??? OS preference ?? Battery ?? Etc ?? Let us know a few details so that we know what could be best suited for you .

its not like i want android only, or i want a big 5 inch screen experience. its just that im planning to buy the phone at such a time when a proper review wouldnt be available for the 620, and the grand seems a fair bet considering its extra worth of 5k phone.
620 has got a 1300mah battery whereas the grand 2000mah, the grand will go long then after a single charge (..does it?) this is the type of things im basing my decisions on.
actually im confused to the core of confusion, so once again HELP!

Buy L9 , its an overall good choice. Only place it fails a little behind would the Camera Quality compared to other 5Mpixl shooters.
Is it that you want to choose only between these two ?? If yes then go for Grand . Its not that bad , if you can manage with the Pixel density and the bulky size. [ Grand's screen will lack crispiness/sharpness because of low pixel density. Its not that bad , but most people can't live with it.
Though , there's not much information about the BroadComm SoC in detail.
PS : Next time choose an appropriate thread title that.

if not L9 or Grand. Get xperia sl for around 22-23k locally it is the best phone in its segment

Please be a bit more specific about your basic requirements. LG L9 is best VFM if cam is not your necessity. If you want big screen and/or dual sim, grand it is. What's your max budget?

actually i was aiming for the a116 canvas HD, but after a slew of negative vibes i decided against it. im still using my nokia 5320, which to me was the last of the proper nokia phones, thats why when i heard the 620 coming out i got interested, then a friend asked me to read the reviews on flipkart and then i got scared again, and then another friend recommended grand, and that is when i thot of getting help..!
I still havent figured if at all i "need" a 5 inch phone thats worth sooo much, plus this would be the last phone (fingers crossed) that my dad has to pay for, still confused guys, a lil more help..

+1 to LG L9.
But if you're inclined to the options you provided, ideally then go to a showroom, check out grand, if you feel you're comfortable using it, then go for it.
Don't go with flipkart reviews. They seem like jokes to me!

see if im buying the 620 im in turn making windows8 a part of my day-to-day life, the problems mentioned there^^^^ are problems i dont want to face.
another problem i noticed with my dad's samsung corby2 was that doh it had a 3.5 jack whenever i used to plug in my Ultimate ears earphone it said not supported, i really dont want to face this problem as music on the go is a huge factor for me.

Seriously , don't rely on Flipkart reviews. Most of th'm are posted by real n00bs.

tell me about the 3.5mm jack problem, i wont have to face a problem like this naa?
620 has a battery time of 9 hours on 2G, with 3G becoming cheap and affordable i dont think the time would be enough on a single charge..
is grand available in chandni shops or do i have to go to a authorized samsung shop?

I can argue against each and every point over there. But that would be wasting my time.
My friend has got a Lumia 710 and he uses Soundmagic E30 with it without any problems.
As I can see you don't want to go with LG, your next best bet is Grand(if you are ok with its size).

^ grand got cr@p resolution
+1 to this
Lg L9 I would have choosen
D
actually i was talking about my dad's samsung corby2 that says whenever i insert any other earphone to it "earphone not supported"..
im almost 80% have decided it in the favour of the grand, consider the 620s disadvantages.
im thinking of paying the extra premium just to have a tiny peace of mind

^^ Go with Grand then.
Its not a bad phone but just that it is a bit over-priced.

You can consider the Nokia 520, it is at par with the 620 in almost all aspects, and should be around the 12k range.

In that price segment SL and One S are very good option, but if you can shell out 26k then you can grab One X 32GB version with manufacturer warranty for 26k which is being retailing at 33k everywhere.
