Hi guys, I was considering buying the samsung corby touch in a month or so. I have read the reviews of the phone in a couple of sites and it seems convincing. But i would be happy to get some personal experiences of it shared here if anybody have used it.
Also suggestions for any other phone that i can go 4 in d price tag of upto 7500 INR?

Don't go for Samsung Corby instead go for Samsung Star 3G.
Its way better as I have been hearing from other guys here.

No i am not facing any echo problems in my handset.. And one of my friends too bought the same handset and he too is free from any echo problems. I guess that might be a manufacturing defect that caused your friends phone to have that problem. As such i am not facing any problems with my handset.

The battery life of corby what i found till now is quite decent.. On a full charge i could use the phone for around 3 days without doing much activity on the phone except some browsing and calls...While listening to music and videos for around 2-3 hrs, it lasted for around less then 2 days..
Picture quality is decent for a 2 MP cam..But zoom doesn't produces a good result. And night pictures are not good as is obvious without flash.. Video Capture is not that good..
Overall speaking about the photo and video quality of corby, it could have been slightly better i guess.
