Q. i was wondering is there any point in buying android phone below 15k indian rupee,coz major advantage of os is:
1.adobe flash 10.x support
2.lot of hd games
3.480*800 resolution over 360*640 of symbian
5.good performance with 1ghz and above cpu and 512 and above ram
So none of the phones below 15000 has these features so is there any pointing in buying an android over symbian below 15000.dont say some crap apps most important app are avilable for symbian some advantage of symbian device below 11-15k
1.hd games support,hd video ,divx support
2.amoled or ips led display future major updates like carla os
3.html5 browser with future update.
4.excellent battery and better resolution 640*360 against 480*320 of android below 15k.
So isnt symbian say symbian belle or carla os device better below 15000.
A. If you're gonna buy an Android phone, you'd have to pay way more than that to meet your requirements.
1. Adobe Flash 11 is only supported on the more mid-range to high-end Android devices while the low end (in your price range). The majority of phones in that range cannot support Adobe Flash due to hardware incompatibility.
2. Again, this requires a good phone as the low end Android devices aren't powerful enough to handle HD games which needs a decent phone to run on. Also, HD games requires a minimum of 480x800 resolution on the screen.
3. The majority of Android devices in the low end uses HVGA resolution (640x240) which is lower than the resolution used on Symbian devices. Only mid-range to high end Android provides WVGA and higher (largest at HD which is 1280x720).
4. Again, 1 GHz processors are only covered from mid-range onwards. The majority of low-end devices runs between 600-800 MHz. However, a lot do luckily have 512 MB of RAM.
So yeah, definitely not worth buying an Android phone below that price. But there are some advantages of an Android devices over Symbian like a more better UI that is easier to use and one that is more responsive. The experience is slightly better. For instance, the browser on Symbian is crap (even the new one is). The Android browser feels a lot better.
1. That is definitely true. Most HD games on Symbian is supported at that range but that's mainly because the graphics aren't as high. But the multimedia part is definitely true. Most Android handsets at that price range are only capable of 480p videos. But there are some phones with DivX support too.
2. Can't complain there. AMOLED and IPS LCD displays are fantastic. But, AMOLED is only used on their more higher end devices. The lower end uses IPS only. I wouldn't call Carla a major OS update. It just mainly adds MS Office and such. But considering how Nokia is slowly moving away from Symbian moving on to Windows Phone, I wouldn't really say Symbian updates are that interesting.
3. Um, Android's browser already have HTML 5. As I said earlier, the Symbian browser experience is actually quite horrible. Even the Anna one isn't that good. And even though it does have HTML 5, it's not a very capable one. Android's HTML 5 browser actually works better.
4. Symbian is more light-weighted. Android has a sh*t loads of background services running. That's the reason why the battery life sucks.
Under 15000. It's probably true that the Symbian devices are better since they do offer some better stuff. But, I can also say you're wrong. The only Symbian devices I see below 15000 are the crappy Symbian phones running on Symbian S60v5 which won't get the Carla update, can't play HD games, no HD or DivX video support, nor AMOLED or IPS LCD or even a good browser. It's actually worse than an low-end Android phone if you don't count the resolution in. However, I have found an Android phone that is 15000. Which does offer most of your needs though. The Huawei Vision.
Has Adobe Flash 11
Can play HD games
Has 480x800 resolution
Has a 1 GHz processor with 512 MB of rAM
So, yeah. Debatable.
Why buying android phones under RS. 15000 ?
Q. i was wondering why on earth people are running after android devices under 15000 budget.i own ace,i found no use in buying a droid under 15000,battery sucks,screen sucks,support only some crap apps of no use,also will not get any further os update.
Im telling this coz my cousin bought 603 running on belle its much better than similar priced ace,when he plays games like asphalt6,eternal legacy hd etc i can even play angrybird properly on ace,the conditions are even worse for devices below ace.
So why on earth are people buying these.
A. People hear that Android is on par with iOS. That is partially true, since high-end phones can really match the omnipresent iPhone 4 and 4S, but those cheap HVGA resolution phones with less than 1Ghz processor Androids can't match the iPhones. They are badly misinformed if they believe that their midrange to low-end Android can really support the hundreds of thousands of apps Android has. Even the Samsung Nexus S do not support all those apps. My N8 can support Angry Birds without any lag, while the Samsung Ace lags while it is played on it. The marketing strategies of phone manufacturers are pretty misleading too. The higher the number, the better it sounds for people. A little research on their part would not hurt to be safe.
I agree that midrange to low-end phones are somehow more cash wasting than high-end phones.
I just posted there everything I thought of. I hope it helped.
