Suggest a new phone for mom

[AbhishekMSharma]

My mom currently uses a Nokia C6-01 and is not at all disappointed by it. But still I want her to upgrade, budget is around 13-15K. Basically I want her to move ahead of Symbian (Belle). I won't mind it if a good Symbian phone is suggested, after all I am not a Symbian hater.I need a phone which is simply yet easy to operate. Camera is the main priority, it has to be good. Also if the phone supports multiple wallpapers (Symbian supports multiple wallpapers, 5 to be precise) then it will be nice because she is used to having her favorite pics as the wallpapers.Basically an easy to use phone with good internet connectivity and daily usage. She obviously doesn't play any game, so I don't want one with huge benchmark scores. A phone which can run smooth for daily usage shall be fine.

i would have suggested Nokia lumia 620 which should launch soon enough. but wallpapers... beh.

Even I thought of a Lumia (or any other WP) but then she loves Wallpapers. Keeping her fav pics as wallpapers is one of the very few things she enjoys on her mobile and I don't wanna take that away from her.

Nokia lumia 620 is a good phone in that budget

I got my mom and daughter the Softbank (Samsung) 821SC from Japan. it is probably dated now, but a great phone with a good camera, wallpaper options etc. Going very strong though it is 3+ years old. Personally I think form factor is important and the flips offer great benefit to people who want a smallish phone and easy to use as well.
