should i buy iphone 4s

K

hey everybuddy, i'm kamal from punjab. I want suggestions from you that should i buy iphone 4s or not. First of all i'm not a apple fanboy. I Am more lean towards android but this offer made me thought to get iphone. Okay now offer is that my one friend is gonna get iphone 4s from u.s. He need money. So he offered me to sell that iphone 4s for 15k after unlocking. Now my question is this that after unlocking will all sims are gonna work in that and also what about warranty

please give your valuable suggestions . . And sorry one last query can i get a used xperia neo v for max. 12k

15K are you sure? forget warranty if its not registered, apple provides a world wide warranty but you should have a proper bill.

K

first , thanks bro for quick reply. About phone he told me that it's original so if i got bill of phone then will it have same warranty in india. Will unlocking affect warranty in any way .

A line to consider
Apple doesnt provide International warranty on iPhones :wink:

everything sounds fishy.. i have a bad feeling things will turn out ugly...

K

from you guys suggestions i think i rather not take risk buying it. I think i'm gonna buy a used neo v. Can you guys tell me that which one should i go for neo v or defy. . .

as it's time to forget iphone 4s

Don't risk it. Don't buy it.

4S for 15K !!!! Are you sure...
Dude its an awesome deal...go n grab it.He is your friend so I don't he is gonna cheat you and give you some piece of crap.
Or just PM me his details I will go n grab it...he he he

@aroraanant, bro he also have to get it from another person. And i'm not a apple fanboy. I just put this query because he wants to buy it. I 'm gonna go for xperia neo v or defy . . .if i can get neo v in 12k used. Otherwise defy is only choice

anyone plz tell me can i get a used xperia neo v in 12k and is it better than defy. I will be more in modding and rom stuff. So will support for neo v increase with time

the phone may be of 15k & unlocked for all sims(micro sims) but don't expect a official warranty & bill from Apple.

get the phone and sell it to someone else for 25-30k and enjoy the profit and buy yourself a neo

even if its without warranty, iphone 4S is a steal for 15k.

It looks like your friend is getting it for $199 from a carrier (and ignore the 2yr contract). Make it very clear to him that you will pay 15k only after inspecting the piece and checking if it is authentic or not. If you are to pay in advance, then you better get a droid here.

@desibond bro , i changed my mind about buying it . Now i am gonna go for android . . Which one to buy between defy , neo v, play, or any htc phone. I want a good battery life and normal camera which can compete with n73 and also custom rom support

waiting for your suggestion.

hey checkout new Defy+....almost at same cost but with newer OS(gingerbread), better battery and 1gHz proccy...not sure if its a best buy

Defy or Defy+ def, really good buy, just for the toughness its in a league of its own

K

i'm inclined more towards xperia neo v as it has newer generation processor and secondary camera and mini hdmi port. . . Ics official

whats your thinking .

From 4s straight to Neo!?

K

hey guys i got an offer for htc desire @11k . Should i get it

A new desire for 11k!!! thats a killer deal...its a good phone but its battery backup is not good

K

it's not new, it's old one and i think it is costlier. What to your thinking should be price of a used one desire

Yes I think then it is costly,as few days back it was available(a new one) on saholic for 15k

K

should i get desire if it's available for 10k . Without warranty

Go for a new Neo V. Desire is pretty old now, imho. Battery issues too.

checkout the comparison here between xperia active and defy +

yeah desire is ooold, and neo is a lil less old but yeah I really liked the active, wasnt posting this because normally dont really mind older phones, but these were not exactly flagship models... didnt want to add to the confusion

but Im glad the Active came up, check out the Xperia Active its from the latest generation of Xperia phones and they have done a lot of things better than this time around

K

hey guys thing is that i have a pretty strict budget just 11.5k most . So thats why i'm inclined towards used one phones as i know some are pretty powerful than most android's available in 10k price bracket.

so please when suggesting take budget into consideration. And suggest a good android phone that came in my budget and good on gaming and atleast 512 mb ram. And a good camera

thanks for these suggestions

and should i fill the questionere for buying a phone .

hey guys how much i have to pay for a new defy.

it's a balanced phone and also has good battery life and one more thing are all new defy comes with red lens

plz reply. also is it's power vx gpu is better than aderno 200

I would suggest going in for the used desire or the desire HD,they could be available for around 10k-12k and 12k-14k respectively with warranty.There's lot of developer support for these phones,check out their respective forums and also they are available cheap bcoz Htc have low resale value in Indian market.

K

what about defy it's also cheaper and having same features as desire . . How much for a used piece with warranty

Defy(new one) will cost u for around 13k.
Desire and Desre HD both are great phones but they sucks in terms of battery back up, so if you are confortable with their batter back up then get a desire

Hey Kamal, i suggest strongly you buy the Nokia Lumia 800. it is a device with a great pemium feel, it feels good to use a phone which is a quality device and feels like it would never get a scratch. The screen is a gorilla glass piece under which lies an AMOLED screen. The Hardware is great too, a 1.4 processor with 16 gigs memory, and a marketplace that is growingfaster than android or apple. The phone's Mango UI is also wornderful. The phone also offers a very fresh interface, so i will definitely appeal to you. Apple is just uselessly costly, and android is plagued with battery issues and a number of spam apps. Go for Nokia Lumia 800. you will love it.

K

thanks. for suggestions guys. I really. appreciate it. so now I flashed my blade to cm 7.1 stable but now I am suffering from battery. loss. anyone haiving some suggestions will help a lot. also I want to flash to latest nightly build. is there anyway that I can restore apps and games to that Tom without downloading again

Go for the neo V

You absolutely wasted that awesome iPhone deal man !!!!!!!!!!!

I got the lumia 800 finally, and i am so happy. the phone is just so great. what i so love is the attention to detail, the retail packet also had a silicone covber in it, small but very thoughful. The phone also has a 8 megapixel camera, which takes great shots, one of the better ones amongst camera phones. teh OS WP7.5 is also silky, and the AMOLED screen makes it a pleasure to use. one of the best phones ever.

Lumoa 800 is indeed a great phone.
