after all the posts and discussion.. this is what i feel..
as this point of time.. yes android is the call.
battery issue - true certain extent OS is to be blamed. but they are still working on it.
most of the battery consumption is by the big screen and the hardware of the device. why blame the OS ??
apps - tons of them, free too... lolz..
win os ( mango ) - still buggy.. nokia will certainly go down in the premium segment.
might still hold the market share for the basic phones. even in that i see no innovation.this is coming from years old nokia fan boy. and the lumnia still freezes
OS - android would do the job.
as stated.. plays major file formats and yes linux based.
the only thing windows does quickly is crashing.
coming to the phones..
galaxy note : a drool worthy .. monster of a phone but impractical.. or maybe due to me riding most of the times and not driving.
galaxy S2... : no point going for it anymore. samsung is cheating on comsumers now.
due to the heating issue and less batt life. sammy has removed the
GPU and clocked the same proccy to 1 Ghz from 1.2. though you can always root it and clock it back to 1.2 Ghz. however no fix for the removed Gpu. also this all happened in past few months after samsung ran into shortage with the chipset for the S2. the box states I9100 the phone you get inside is I9100G and thats the underclocked version without GPU without any reduction in price.
lucky i got the old ones...
Galaxy R : this was the best bet . now they stopped selling this model for the same reason mentioned above. as they cant sell two phones with a price diff of 10K with minor diffrences.
htc : the htc sense is the one of the best touch interface you can get.
motorola : razr looks good and quite competetive as per the hardware specs go.
sony : never been a sony eric.. guy so wont comment.
if looking for something in range of 20-30k try to grab a cheapo phone for a month or 2 or use a spare phone and pull the trigger on galaxy s3. said to be a quad core and lots more.
galaxy y .. one of the best options under 10k.
htc explorer was on sale for offer 7k ish. now back to 8k odd.. check techenclave for more offers.
and yes.. apple is good too... screen and touch is awsome but not my cup of tea.
