On the lookout for an Android phone.

[AB96]

I've just finished my HSC examinations and was using Nokia E72, which runs on Symbian, until now.
Currently, I'm on the lookout for an Android phone, but I'm not at all an expert in these things. And hence, I'm asking for help from the members here.
The requirements:
1. Good/great display. I will be watching FullHD videos, so I would prefer a 1920 x 1080 Pixels resolution.
2. Screen size shouldn't be too much. 5.5 inches max.
3. 1.5 GHz processor (or better), and good graphic card, as I'll be playing games frequently.
4. 2 GB RAM (or 1.5 GB at least).
5. Good/great battery life.
6. The audio and video output should be good/great.
7. EXTERNAL MEMORY SHOULD BE AVAILABLE (or 32 GB internal).
I wrote the 7th point in BOLD because I've seen that many phones nowadays, like Nexus 5 or Moto X only have internal memory.
My budget is around 25-30K. Will be flexible if I come across a good product.
A response will be appreciated.

Not really. The first version of the case had crappy buttons. Google has since then updated the design. It is not clear if the Indian Play Store has the stock of the new design. In any case, it is not made up of anything special that you would want to pay Rs. 2500 for it. Get a cheapo case from Amzer or a mid-range case from an international brand and they would be just as good.

just buy LG g2 16gb. You can easily get from local store for ~32k. Also even low by using discount coupons on ebay.in.
Cheers

16 GB isn't enough for me. And the 32 GB costs like 40K, which is way out of my budget. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Right. Only found out today that G2 does not have expandable memory. I always assumed it did!

OTG!

 

[Sushubh]

I want to hit people who suggest OTG has an alternative for expandable memory on phones. (no offense)

 

[Manish24]

its just that 16gb is enough
LG g2 is the best possible phone you can have in ~30 k bracket. Yes even better than upcoming phones which will be absurdly priced >50k

16GB is not enough for a lot of people. I know people who still use the Classic Apple iPod because it had a 160GB hard disk. People have massive music libraries and they like to carry it with them wherever they go. And these 16GB phones with 12-13GB usable storage are not an alternative.

Ya like i said you can't get everything you need in your budget. For storages, well Cloud storage and OTG. Enough said.

 

[Sushubh]

He can get phones with 32GB storage in the budget. He can also get devices with expandable storage in the same budget. Enough said.

 

[Manish24]

ofcourse you can.
but you wont get a phone like g2
