Samsung C170 – Rs 2200
The C170 is an extremely slim sleek handset with a depth of just 8.9mm. It has a 1.52 inch CSTN display with a 128 x128 pixel resolution and 65K colors. Aside from being a stylish entry-level handset, it offers some decent functions like GPRS (Class 10) and supports polyphonic ringtones. (Remember how popular those used to be at one time?)
Some other features Samsung has incorporated into the C170 include an integrated FM radio and a couple of games. This handset also has an organizer, calendar, currency converter, and a to-do list. The C170 has a built-in speaker for handsfree use and a voice recorder as well. The internal memory is just about 600KB.
Motorola W215 – Rs 2450
Motorola’s W215 is one of the more feature-rich handsets in this price bracket. It has a 640 x 480 VGA camera and video. The screen resolution is the similar to the others in this section – 65k colors CSTN with a 128 x 128 pixel resolution.
The W210 comes with 1MB of internal memory. It may not be as sleek as the Samsung C170, but it does look attractive. The handset has an integrated FM radio, some games, and a built-in handsfree feature. Like the others it comes with basic features such as a calculator and an organizer. There's also a stopwatch feature.
Consumers today are spoilt for choice, what with mobile companies trying desperately to outdo each other. In our particular category (color display handsets under Rs 3000), the choice is quite vast, so I’ve picked those that I find ideal. If you happen to be familiar with other handsets in this segment, please leave a comment. Don’t forget to mention the model number and an approximate price if you know it. Just remember – they MUST be priced lower than Rs 3000!
i think sony ericsson j120i is the best. it is only for rs 1800. if u want to take a mobile prefer this great phone
