Hi All,

Please suggest me a Slim phone , less than 10 mm thick, basic use: Calling, SMS, Alarm, Calendar, Calculator. I don't care for Camera, FM and Music , However 3G is must and it should act as a Wifi Hotsopt. Battery life no concerns even it lasts for a day will be enough.

Touch screen no required (to bring down the cost) , don't care for OS, anything that works is OK for me.


No specific brand choice Indian (Karbonnn, Spice, Lava, MMX) , MNC (Nokia, Sammy) , ebay import(Pentax?) will do.

Budget Around 10K.

Xperia tipo or htc explorer

HTC Explorer is 12.9 mm thick

SONY Xperia Tipo is 13 mm thick

Both are good phones but don't qualify the requirement of 10 mm or less thick.

Anyway thanks for your suggestion.

A90 is "Out of Stock" every where and its price is around 13K which is out of budget set. Anyway thanks for suggestion.
