1. Budget- 25-26k
2. Display type and size- 4.X"
3. Preferred choice of brand?- Nexus,LG,Sony (NO to Samsung)
5. Preferred input method- Touch
6. Preferred operating system?- Android.
7. Preferred connectivity options- 3g/2g/Wifi
8. Primary use of handset - Gaming, Applications, Surfing, Music/Movies.
9. Any specific mobile phones in consideration- Nexus 4, LG Optimus G, Xperia ZR

Camera isnt a concern as I wont be using it much.
LG Nexus 4 (16 GB) is available ONLY FOR 15k after the 100$ price drop from the google playstore (taking 1$=63 inr)
Dont know much about ZR, how is it?
Same for LG optimus G ^ ,only heard its the LG version of N4.
I am thinking of ordering it(n4) VIA US, why would anyone pay 10k just for the Warranty?
Its like a 15k phone from google with the same specs VS. 26k competitors

Please Help

That is what im worrying about. The kitkat is supposed to b revealed on oct.14 right? Maybe the N% will be released at that time too.
If it will be around 25k i will buy if its 30K i cant....

I think it's worth waiting if you can get it ordered from the play store as 14Oct is not too long away :p

Yeha do you have any idea about the price?? if the price is 30k, as mentioned earlier, cant get it :( thats the main problem...If it is 350, maybe there is a chance
