Unfortunately I live in WB and they doesnt ship to WB and some other states due to Govt Duty reason.
There lowest price is 11,500 INR without warranty (seller warranty is not a warranty).
It's Better to buy Xperia Sola.
Also Xperia U is nice but you can't install HD games because of 4gb memory limitation.

Oh boy! No HTC please, they are a bunch of liars. They don't give updates and their customer service people are nutshells. Get a Samsung. Or get a nexus 7 with 3g. We in salsa forum are fighting with HTC. I made a mistake but you don't.

I have an X8 and my brother brought the U. I really think it's a great choice! It's not a high-end device but all of the apps that he installed work great!

TOday, I have sold my optimus black.
Sadly, I will not contribute much on P970 thread in xda in the future. However, I am happy to share my experience when using P970 if you want to listen...
This is my first smart phone for daily use...
What's more, I would like to thank all the developers and members. Without their contribution, I cannot try so many wonderful and powerful ROMs like Marvel and Zeus... I would like to thank Redy, Huexxx... They are so kind to answer my questions. Zeus is the best ROMs that I have tried.
Now, I am still considering which is the next smart phone will be.
I think galaxy nexus or optimus 2X are the good choice.
Any ideas?
Your choices are galaxy nexus and LG 2X ? Galaxy is like twice the price of an optimus 2x (atleast in my country). Still, I'm not even going to talk about LG's technical phone support...I would choose galaxy nexus even without a need to think about it.
Regards.

Both are too expensive for me.
Besides, Nexus is so reasonable price in my country, just the same with the optimus 2X
Seems that prices in my country are so different with yours. Galaxy nexus is 40 euros more expensive than Sony Xperia S !? SGS 2 is is priced at 480 euros, which is the same as the Sony.
But ridiculously cheap is SE arc s (290 eur), which is cheaper than OB originally was last summer.
If i could i would change my ob to arc s any time.

yeah... but with power comes reaponsibility as uncle Ben said to a little spidey and lg shows no signs of responsibility at all....
To be honest the only reason for not selling my OB is the great developers(even if not many in number), and the community. It haven't been an easy ride at all, and it is all LGs fault of being slappy and improve.
And that will definitely be my last LG item (phone,tv,etc) for a long while.
I would personally go with the nexus or if price is not to high with the Samsung Note.
Take care and good luck !!!!
I would look for the galaxy nexus or the htc one s not the x (i'm also looking to buy the one S)
I still think htc is more reliable then lg and samsung… but that's my opinion
p970 is my first android phone too

I wanted to do the same but in every review i have read they are complaining about the display and the camera. The camera on the X8 is lousy too, but the display is ok. So I will wait for another cheap replacement for the x8.

Huawei=better speed
Sony=quality
also check support on xda for those 2 phones then decide :good:
No, only xperia sola.
Xperia Tipo is definitely faster and better than the Xperia X8. I have both the phones, Im seriously bored of the lags on the X8. The Tipo runs ICS jus fine, actually quite smooth even with a 800MHz processor. The camera is still a let down because its still 3.2 fixed focus. Image quality is not upto the mark, but price-wise its fine.
The choice is yours actually, there are better phones now. Wouldnt you want a bigger screen like the Sola or Xperia U?
What price is xperia tipo?
Even xperia mini pro run ics without lags

T-Mobile offers the SII for free with a two year contract. Of course, you will have to pay the taxes and activation fee, but will be within your budget.

Try looking at the Galaxy S or Galaxy S 2. Anything lower than that would not be good for HARDCORE GAMING
Both are above budget well i use galaxy mini for gaming .its quite well..i think the devices i stated abive will do well too

It's an awful Froyo device. Also it's not ICS ROM capable. My friend sold his Optimus Me and got a HTC HD2. Xperia Tipo is the only device that supports 4.x in that price range.

Don't buy Micromax. They are never going to provide any OS update for their phones.
Thinking about your budget and your wants, I just don't think is possible. Why not save up some more, and get a S2. Is there cell service providers in India that offer discounted phones in exchange for a contract?

being a Z1 users, i love it. But in less than 24 hours of purchasing it, I have sent it back to service center for the yellow hue tint on screen.
cam still has some issue, noisy pics but firmware will update it sure.
Everything else i love about Z1.
If i have to buy any other device except Z1, i would have bought LG G2, nice battery life and other specs. But I am bound to Sony Xperia phones only

Z1
I had the GS2, GS3 and last week my Z1 arrived so i gave the GS4 to my wife and I'm definitely not disappointed but happy with the new Z1 and its powerful camera and the performance and everything. Galaxy s 4 was a very good machine, but this is a beast! :cyclops:
I was a galaxy s4 user and switched 4 days ago. First thing I noticed is how smooth and lag free this phone is. Only thing I don't like is the screen protector and not being able to remove it.

SP does have this touch problem when it's charging..
but overall it's still an awesome mid-range phone
I would say a NO. Its outdated in terms of its life and wont get any updates in the future. Go for the Moto G which will get officially updated to Android L and maybe even the Android version after that.
Let's just make it this way, if you want a phone for it's specs go for sp, if you care for android updates moto g, Both are awesome and you can't go wrong with either
