Hiya guys ..... as i said i wanna buy a phone that is not made of cheap plastic or atleast doesn't start to creak even wen its brand new .......
features expected FM radio... i have a moto FONE for this purpose(the one that costs a 1000 bucks). only problem with it is that it does not have a FM radio...

Price range : around 5k

The only phone i found is the samsung F700(metal body) but that one retails for about 8k ......

All the crappy nokias n motos n SE in this price range look like toy phones with the cheap plastic body and a below average quality of the coating and the chrome dye used ......

3110 c though plastic but very good phone and quality

I think Moto SLVR L9 would be the best....Good Metal feel

Nokia - 3110C, 3500C

Sony Ericcson - W200i

Motorola - W230, W270, W388, W396

SE W302 is made of some real good material.

^^+1 for w302...

Nokia - 3110C, 3500C,Motorola - W230, W270, ----- exactly the sh!tty kind of phones that i don't want !!!!!!!

Hey u checked with my link its L9 and not L6 or L7....L9 was relesed in 2007 and have a 2mp cam.
although SE w302 seems a better choice...latest SE product

really liked w302 ,, but then i also decided to check out the nokia supernova .... also nokia 6233 has stereo speakers and looked rather decent !!!!

but wats the catch with se w302 ... though made of plastic body and has metal face plates but its still very cheap !! HOW ????

Do u want bad points of w302
1.screen resolution low at 176x220
2.No 3g
3. Video recording QCIF @ 15fps
4. No themes can be downloaded (as people say)

Build quality is goood ...sound quality is good (this is what wanted

)
