Suggest a smartphone 10-20k

[The-Lord]

Im looking to buy a smartphone, preferentially android ( not too keen about wp7 because of the recent Chevron incident ). budget - >10k

I do not think any dual core would come under 20K. Atrix 2 is around 23K. ebay might have some good deals. i hope some links get posted for you to consider.

Sony xperia ray is a decent option in this range. though i am not sure what chevron incident you are talking about

of course, there should be great deals available in the US market.

Xperia play is available for 18k on eBay, even the moto photon 4G is a good buy. Look around eBay

I'm in exactly the same predicament.Atrix 2 is selling for 21800. Cheapest good dual-core.Xperia Pro for 18600.Xperia Ray for 17400Xperia neo v for 17100Desire S for 17900I'm awaiting Xperia Sola, expected to compete with Atrix 2.

this one:
Enjoying Chevron? Say Goodbye to Your Developer Unlock | xda-developers
Completely destroyed my wp7 rooting possibilities and most probably hit a huge chunk of wp7 buyers.

@vrij
when is the sola supposed to release? I mean, India and Motorola and months away :/

Is it true that Motorola's service in India is crap? Should it be a major consideration while choosing a phone?

 

[Sushubh]

so basically you want the ability to sideload apps? motorola is currently a disaster everywhere.

Are the rumours about them (moto mobility)being sold off to Huawei worth a second thought ?

 

[Sushubh]

purely a rumor and unlikely to happen.

Increase the budget to 22k and get the HTC Sensation.

Decide on the budget first. 10K - 20K are two different ends of a spectrum. It is almost equivalent to asking 'suggest me a sedan between 7 and 17 lacs'
