Hey everyone ,
I need to buy a new phone . I wanted a smart phone with touch screen . + mp3+radio(must) + camera is optional if the price of phone is less though if present must be a good quality with a flash& AF .. I was thinking of buying ROKR E6 but its camera doesnt have flash or AF.

I dont care about the user interface or the buttons or the os being not symbian et all . I have buttery hands and my phone slips a lot from my hands. I just want a phone with good construction .

I was thinking to buy
SE --W950i(w/o camera ) @ Rs .8500 . OR w960i @ Rs.23000

Moto- ROKR E6 for 12000 OR RAZR2 V8 @17000.

Nokia -- I kind of hate nokia phones for their ugly design .though a phone with good features like N73 would do just OK.

Please Help me guys !!!!!!

SE P990i. It has touch screen, mp3 player, radio and a 2mpix camera with auto focus. I think it costs around 18k now.

+1 for SE p990i.

The problem with p990i is that its more of a business phone. Although it just fits my requirements ,but i wud look kind of weird carrying that bulky business phone in my college . Also its processor is a slower one tied with a slow symbian OS. The new P1 comes with 3d graphics accel. but it is too expensive .


@gx_saurav : If u want one i could get one for you at 8.5k +taxes . Not from INDIA though .

@azzu : ROKR 's the same as MING but with more RAM. Ming looks KOOOOL though.:D

@gaurav_indian :: Hey that phone is pretty darn cheap outside INDIA . I am giving the showroom price for W950i + the taxes that we may have to pay to the Indian gov (not sure if there are any taxes for such a case)

Many P990i users that i spoke to recently warned against buying that specially at that price of 20k



Hey are there any other cool phones that are available w/o touchscreen .

I saw a very cool phone in the hands of a young teacher in my college today . It was like an E series though with a very good screen , it had a qwerty keybrd and looked cool with a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig screen . I am not sure if it was touch screen or a normal one ... . I couldn't ask her right then but i wud surely ask her the next time i see her ....

i had decided on ROKR but when i played with its camera i decided to wait for a little while ....

Plz help me guys suggest any other phones ..
