    hi seems a nice phone. Can you compare it with Nokia C3, Nokia 6303i ? I need a multimedia phone with 3.2 MP camera and mp3 player in 6K. Budget is a problem so looking for a good phone under that. And also tell me about Micromax service and all. I have heard they do not guarantee you ! :O

      @Himadri:
      Glad to see you here. Well, if your budget for new phone is around 6-7K then, I would advise you not to go for any Android. As I feel a good entry level android is Samsung galaxy 5 which might be on a little upper side for you.

      here are some options for you:
      – Nokia c3 (As you said, you want multimedia device, it isn’t exactly a MM device but is def. within your budget. Shall be good for texting, tweeting and using Facebook. Advisable for a blogger and a techhy)
      – Nokia 6303i (Alpha-numberic keypad. A BIG ‘NO’ for a blogger)
      – Nokia 6233 (A few hundred bucks higher than your budget but purely a MM device with full touch-screen and should be good for texting as well with the on-screen qwerty keyboard)

      LMK if I could be of any help further.

    Thanks for the reply Deepak, I think I will try Nokia C3 and 6303i because I am in no mood to go for touchscreen. Not good at it 🙂

      Hello Raghav, AFAIK, Micromax h/s perform good. Even we are using a MX H/s at our office. Though some users in the past reported issues with their service. so request you to kindly check how the service at your area with some local sellers.

      Rest, MX A60 is a nice android at that price. Only problem we found is its “resistive touch screen”. Check out if you are comfortable with resistive screens.
