Smartphones under Rs. 10,000 for dads

[Sushubh]

Just need a bunch of options to send to someone.

1S is discontinued.
Redmi Note 4G is available on demand.
Lenovo A6000 4G is not available on demand.
There are 3-4 Android One devices. Usually available with reasonable discount.

Anything else?

Zero in on a 3G dual sim model. Dads generally don't need 4G.

How about a Zenfone 501?

crappy software track record? too much junk preloaded on the phone? Asus is just not a good option for a phone.

On the contrary, I know two of my relatives (uncles) using Zens and are happy. They are not too bothered by the bloatware. They have limited needs.

Micromax Unite 2 is another option.

 

[Sushubh]

to be honest, windows phone devices would work here as well because of the limited needs.

Zen is heavy and looks ugly, a friend has it

yup. they keep on releasing videos about new apps that comes preloaded on their phones. each video drives me a further away from buying their phones.

Why Yu no suggest Yu?

No Micromax. Though the person who asked me for recommendations is a big Micromax can. So I have a feeling that no matter what phone(s) I recommend, Micromax would get another customer.
