Spice Mi270 does not fit in the group as it lacks 3G.

Looking for a android GSM handset...

My Budget: Around 25 K

Preferably HTC

Would not like to go for samsung because of its plasticky feel and build quality...

Please suggest which one would be the best... :signthankspin:

Having used an Optimus One, I think that is an ideal entry level phone. The screen is really super, and the medium size screen makes it possible to tuck away the phone in your pocket. There is also a lot of ROM development activity for this phone - easy to go to Gingerbread (CM7).

India & Android – Best Phones to buy this July

Source

Yet another edition of best Android devices in the Indian Market. We try to incorporate all the latest launches and compare them with the already available devices in the market – thus coming out with a list of devices that we think are best in their category right now.

It is a subjective list.. We are choosing only a few devices per category, but that does not necessarily other devices are not good – it's just that that these devices stands out.

Dual-core Android smartphones: [20K+]

Samsung Galaxy S II: Without any doubt, if you have money this is the phone to go for. It has got its share of criticism due to heating issues, which will probably be sorted out by a future firmware update.

Price: INR 29,999 | Android version: 2.3.3 |

Other options in this category – HTC Sensation & LG Optimus 2X

Single-core high end Android smartphones: [iNR 20K+]

There is quite a competition in this category. It was hard to make a decision between them, yet we have decided on two phones with single core processors.

HTC Incredible S: A very potent Android smartphone from HTC, a rather new smartphone although HTC has been releasing single core Android phone since HTC Desire. Clubbed with Android 2.3.3 and 4 inch display with an 8MP HD shooter, Incredible S makes a strong case.

Price: INR 25,940 | Android version – 2.3.3

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc: This awesome looking device from Sony Ericsson comes with a great display in the form of 4.1 inch screen with Bravia Engine. Processor is same as of Incredible S but lacks in the terms of RAM from the HTC device, but the great camera can make do for that.

Price: INR 26,890 | Android version – 2.3.3

Other options in the category: HTC Desire S, Desire HD, Xperia Play [for gaming freaks], Dell Venue, Dell Streak [if you don't mind big screen], HTC Desire, HTC Desire Z and Acer Liquid E

Mid-range Android smartphones: [below 20K and more than 12K]

Recently a series of price drops and new devices launches have made mid-range a happening Android arena. Yet another category to make hard decisions, but choice is always good for consumers.

Nexus S: We always like Google phones. You get the Android updates before anyone else and have the great hardware. If you are looking for pure Android – this is it.

Price: INR 19.9K | Android version: 2.3.4

LG Optimus Black: Recently launched Optimus Black is the lightest Android smartphone in high-end as well as mid range categories. It comes with a great 4 inch NOVA display along with 1 GHz processor. Only problem is the Android version, which will get updated to Gingerbread soon.

Price: INR 19,310 | Android version: 2.2

Other options in the category: Samsung Galaxy SL, Spice MI-410, Motorola Defy, Samsung Galaxy Ace, Acer Liquid Metal, HTC Wildfire S and Motorola Milestone

You might be wondering that high-end and mid-range categories have ended and we have not mentioned Galaxy S anytime. We were not sure to put it in which category. That's why it is here on its own.

Worth It:

Samsung Galaxy S: A very popular and hit smartphone from Samsung, Galaxy S still have great hardware and almost latest Android version. We are not sure about the price, because you should be able get it around 21K. A great display and awesome developer love. Note: Available at 19.5K At Some Places.

Entry-level Android smartphones [0 to INR 12K]

With a series of Samsung love here, and lot of rebranded OEM devices have made entry level segment crowded. It is very hard to point out which is better than which in this segment, so we are not choosing one device here. We have made a lot of few devices that are worth their money in this segment.

  • Dell XCD35
  • LG Optimus One
  • Samsung Galaxy Fit
  • HTC Wildfire
  • Acer Liquid Mini

Other options in this category: Seriously there are a lot of them – Samsung Galaxy Pop, Galaxy Pro, LG Optimus Me, Spice MI-310, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and SE W8

After using EPIC and its AMOLED display, I will suggest to choose handsets with amoled handsets over TFT LCD, AMOLED is very pleasent.

New processors along with 3G download is causing heat problems, I have observed that particular section of phone is hotter and it is not antena region. So it can be safely assumed that heating is NON RF issue hence safe.

Samsung is blocking s-amoled to other vendors; s-amoled is a definite smoothy but the current high res s-lcds are 95% matching it...

By this standards as on date Samsung Galaxy S2 is the overall winner TODAY

Active Matrix Organic Light Emiting Diode has the biggest benefit of low power consumption. Having manufactured with faster processors, keeping the same ~1500mah battery, AMOLED will do some relief to the battery discharge system.

Samsung Galaxy Y is most value for money android handset at Rs 6,990. No other android in india from a good brand has similar specs at that price. You can also consider LG Optimus Net which has a better screen resolution, bigger memory and higher battery. You will pay around 3,000 more at Rs 9,999 for that.

^^^ For about 8000 bucks more, the HTC One X is a rival to the Sony Xperia, with a bigger screen (4.7" same resolution) and speedier processor (quad core), but lesser camera (8MP)
