Thanks vidhubhushan for your reply...

Sorry for not mentioning the Budget -
Budget? >15K, can max increased to 16K...

Please guys provide me more suggestions..

How about Pantech Burst?

Get Xolo play. It has tegra 3 SOC and is unbeatable at its range. Plays everything including real racing 3.

I would say to get it eyes closed. The build quality is fantastic too and so is the performance as per reviews.

Get her xperia l, she'll definitely like the looks, and will run games you mentioned smoothly.

Considering Xperia L...

@vickybat : Do you think Xolo smartphones are reliable?? Will it perform the same as the other Branded Phones?? I mean she would like to use the phone for at least 2-3 yrs from now...

Till now, i find Xperia L to match all the needs, Pals, are there any more alternatives??

M

Thanks for all your replies....

Will be considering Xperia L...

@ vickybat: Is the brand Xolo reliable?? I mean she will be using the p0hone at least for 2-3 yrs, so it has to be rigid and tough

Are there any more alternatives of same specs in this price range??

Please suggest...

Budget : 16k
camera : 5mp minimum.
Likes : Xperia
OS preferred : Android

bzz..ting..bam..boom..pff..zz...DOING !! Answer is Xperia L !!!!

16k on gf ??? She better be good.

j/k..

go for xperia L. its been a gr8 experience for me so far..if you can wait for 1-2 months, xperia C or xperia M will also probably release.

Xperia L

Yeah xperia L is good for ur budget and needs. LG optimus L9 is an option in ur budget if u need larger screen...

+1 xperia l, lg l9's good too but xperia's camera is far better....

I wish I could suggest anything else other than Xperia L at that price.. It seems sony is having a monopoly at that price segment .. The nearest competitor, Galaxy Grand quad is total piece of crap except for the camera, L9 is very old, and HTC has abandoned lower mid end segment..
Another +1 for Xperia L

Xperia L's camera gives bad results for an 8MP shooter (according to reviews)

^ Its better compared to the 5mp shooter in the L9. But yeah poor for an 8mp shooter phone advertised as a camera phone.
Also I heard the xperia L's camera isn't that horrible if you use vignette to capture pics instead of the stock camera app. Maybe software issues. Not sure.

xperia L seems right for your budget

If it were me I'd pick this, but the looks aren't exactly...enticing to the feminine psyche. Xperia L would be the obvious choice.

Sony Xperia L review: Xperia Lite - GSMArena.com

You're right my brother, its bad for an 8MP one,but as they always say magapixels doesnt always matter,it is still far better than the LG's.

Thanks ppl,

Will go ahead with Xperia L... :lol:
