Which mob under 7.5k ???

6233 no other choice for your preferences

Nokia 6233 Rs. 7k
No Symbian though

What abt SE K series?? The camera is very gud i heared.

I m thinking of SE K750i , SE k530i, SE k550i.

Does some1 know the prices of these phones?

de only simbian phone below 7 is 5700... its quite good

Wtf. 5700 is 10.8k.
Get a 2nd hand n73.

Go for K550i its best of all. Its now 6k i think

I Don't know about 6233.. Its soo FAT that i don't even want to talk about it.

and i don't know 8k phone has symbain.
but for 1st three k550 is good.

In that budget you cannot find a good Symbian phone. Better get a K550i.

SE k550i is looking good, in earlier threads they stated that this phone is a big flop, what's the problem??

Also, wat's the price of k530i & k750i??

K550I camera suxxx everything else is perfect

it is having misleading cybershot tag

if you don't believe me check out some mobile review site

increase your budget a lil bit and buy K790I

btw. i have used K550I it's camera is no where near K790I but better than moto ming and all

Haha wait for some time and get a 3G iPhone around 8k.

The 8k price ($200) is only for a 3G iPhone under 2 year AT&T contract in the US.
Without that its $400k

I went to Subhiksha store today.
They said k750i is discontinued 3 months ago, is this true??

Now i have to decide between these 2 phones:
k530i - Rs 7440/-
K550i - Rs 7770/-

So, who's better between these 2?

It Wud Be Great If You Get K530 As It Has 3g And U Can Flash It To W660.
Cheers..........................or Wait For Iphone 3g Its 8k............!

Actually k550 has the best camera after k750 in the 2MP category.

and dude k530 does not has auto focus .. so pictures will be terrible.

@a_k_s_h_a_y , krates is saying "K550I camera suxxx everything else is perfect"

And u say camera is good, btw what does this autofocus feature mean? How does autofocus help in the picture quality?

currently i have k550i and the camera is good and even better than many 2 mega pix cam when there is enough lights but it gives very poor result while there is not enough light.
loudness with speaker is also very low but we can flash it to w610i and get better phone with both camera and music. k530i is labeled as camera phone but is has good music than camera.
k750i is good but with k550i you can get better features.
if you like just go with 6233. it is really a good phone and having value for the money

what about LG KP 320? 3.2mp phone with 90MB internal memory for 7.5k??

krates does not much about it. Am sure, i know that guy.

the fact is k550 camera sucks when compared to k750.
but it kicks ass every other 2 mp camera in the market.

you know why ???
Its because k750 camera has 4.8mm lens and k550 has 3.8 mm lens.
because Sony Ericsson wanted to make k550 a slim phone hence they use a camera with lesser focal length. That's why k750 has a better camera.

k550 = Slim + New Platform + Faster + Great Music + Superb Camera.

And the k550 camera is best in the 2mp sector.
None of NOKIA phones have AF in 2 MP sector. Except for the 6233 i think so.

Pictures will be out of focus with out auto focus. Its a must if you want good camera.

In auto focus camera, the camera finds the object and sets accordingly the focal length where as in fixed focus, its fixed.
Only Pictures in which the object is at a certain distance will be clear.
Where is in AF the object can be placed any where at any distance from the camera and you still get a clear picture.

With AUTO FOCUS.

Without AUTO FOCUS.

*img29.picoodle.com/img/img29/4/6/10/t_DSC00251m_e84e121.jpg

So, in short, k550i is better compared to k530i.

But, k530i has 3g & k550i is available in white colour(according to the website)White colour is my favourite.So, again confused.

I think i have to toss a coin now for choosing between these 2 phones lol.

hmmmm you said camera so go for k550

3G is not available in INDIA. Even if some one starts 3G be ready to pay heaps of money.
Like 3rs/min for call 1rs for SMS. Etc and WAP access will be even more costly.

I will go for k530i, as i didn't like the small keys of k550i.
So finalising k530i.

good choice.
k530i is an exactly clone of w660 and priced lower because of inferior software.

but you can flash the k530 to w660 easily and enjoy the Walkman 2.

Try Nokia E50 has the Symbian with 1.3mp and some features like office package and a lot...

Many members told this thing, to flash this mobile after purchasing, but what is the advantage of flashing it to w660?

Will the sound quality become good by flashing?(b'cause of w series)

I will be getting this mob in 15 days approx.

Yeah you will get MegaBass and Flash Lite support.
Also you will get Walkman 2 Music Player.
k530 has just Music Player not even Walkman 1.0 Player.
W660 is Walkman 2.0.

Then there is lots of flash themes, walkman skins, patches, sysgfx for k530.

@Akshay
ur website is good. Do we call this process crossflashing?
Just check this 1 time, m i at right place,
*www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/crossflashing/flash-k530-to-w660/
How do i do this process, by connecting mobile to my PC with the help of data cable? Or is there any special instrument for doing this, ur tutorial does'nt includes this thing, pls clear my confusions.
Thanx.

You need the regular USB cable thats bundled with the phone and download the software to flash the phone and the relevant firmware files for free

That same tutorial for your phone if your phone is CID52.
Things get different if its CID53, Something its likely to be.

^^akshay ny updates on k550i ~w610 flash??......wt drivers u recommend...??
i have k550i was waiting for warranty to get ova....now its abt to so wanna go flash to w610..

Just full Reflash to w610 and leave it. No need of any fancy drivers and stuff.

hi, a_k_s_h_a_y
i m still hesitate to do flashing for k550i to w610i
because here there is no se service station available if my phone crash
how can I know whether my phone is CID52 or CID53
is the tutorial you provide is for Indian region phone? will moded k550i (w610i) will work with Indian frequency
if I have bought phone from uk then can I flash it to work it in India
can you please explain me the very basic thing about this or give me link of your blogs
thanks

Sony phones are known for music and camera both. you can choose SE w910i in your budget.

@dreamcatcher Is it possible to have all the games of F305 on G502?
Is yes how?
And how can i make the G502 to sound as good as a W902?
by flashing,modding.............and what is the risk involved?

I would second the G502. I own, use and love it.

PLUSSES:
* A200 interface
* Brilliant screen
* Good battery life
* 3g ready + HSPDA
* Looks Good (Highly subjective)
* Decent to good sound

MINUSSES
* Small speakers, low volume.
* Headphone port comes loose (This is a problem with all SE phones)
* Camera not the best. You will get high ISO noise at night. Brilliant photos by day though.

----

The G502 already comes with megabass, so I don't think flashing will improve the sound any further.

Its doesnt have a motion sensor so F305 games will not run as intended. ie motion control.
All Java games will run in general.

If you really want a good deal, avoid subhiksha, go to a place where you can bargain.
