Windows Phone 7 in 25-30k

Hey guys.. One of my friends, wants a good Windows Phone 7 based mobile.. His priorities are :-

1. Great display.
2. Good screen, color reproduction.
3. Should've a great Twitter app.

I was suggesting that he should ditch the idea of WinMo and go for Samsung Galaxy S II considering his budget, but he has some kind of weird fetish for WinMo devices

.. So, please recommend a good phone based on the above factors. I couldn't find anything beyon HTC Mozart & HTC HD7..

S

both those phones were priced approx. at 17k to 18.5k on flipkart and letsbuy
but they are out of stock now.

New Samsung focus is available for 13.3k on Ebay India. Its a great phone at an excellent price...

N

+1 for samsung focus.

V

if i am not wrong, its carrier lock phone, available on AT&T, find out before doing purchase.

Samsung Focus being sold on Ebay is factory unlocked.

BTW, yesterday, I bought a Manufactured Refurbished Samsung Focus (from ebay.com) for 150$ with the help of a awesome member on TechEnclave. So, the phone+shipping+customs+unlock will come close to 8.5k... Totally value for money. I want to gift it to my sister on her birthday on 21st September...

I hope to get the phone by next week via Aramex...

Cheers!

P. S. This is the phone I am getting -- Samsung Focus - Black (AT&T) | eBay

excellent pricing :smile:

8.5k for that mobile.

Wait if he has fetish for Windows Mobile phones, will WP7 really help? As I understand WP7 is significantly different than preceding WMs.

What I meant was WP7.. Well, I've forwarded your advice to him & he will select what he wants..
