AnonD-140951, 02 May 2013never meant to offend u....sola doesnt have front cam...onl... moreyup there are many bt still lacks in many prospectives.
1) htc desire x - no front cam bt, smoothher as lumia
2) xperia j - has front cam, ics on board, better than s duos in any preference.. gd battery 1750 mah, 1ghz proccsor but runs several games without any lag.
dont xpect miracles with this mob it is a singl core so lag is the factor..
3) lg optimus l7II - 15000 , dual core, 8mp cam,0.3 secndry, no hd rec 480x854 px only, 4.3 inch scren,dual sim , 768 mb ram,jlly bean, 2450 mah bttery
open flipkart and search..
4) optimus l9- 17500 rs bt best , 2100 mah bttery ,qhd disp, 1ghz dual cre, 1gb ram, ics, 4.7 inch disp, 5mp cam wid 1080p rec..flipkart

if u dnt want brand value then try canvs hd, xolo q800
these are comparable to s3 in processing quad cores, 8 mp cam, 1gb ram, 4.1.2 , frnt cam ,and hd disp of canvas hd.
these are some phones which are good

in my opinion u should buy a dual core one ..
bcoz singl core above 10k is useless and u will cry
opening even contacts take 5-10 sec
believe me
wat do u want wid frnt cam it only works wid 3g or wifi, 3g is so expnsive appx 1gb for 250-300 on any netwrk, and if u have to use wifi then better use ur laptop...
choice is yrs....

    varun, 01 May 2013then go for s adv. my cousin bought it and he is facing pr... morenever meant to offend u....sola doesnt have front cam...only thing which is making me think twice...can u suggest any other phone apart from s advance or sola...620 forum shows many problems with win ph 8 so am worried..50% give positive feedback and 50 negative feedback so really confused...any other htc,samsung or sony phone around 15 k which meets my requirements...front cam(even vga would do),reasonable processing power,good sound quality from speakers and decent battery life

                    AnonD-140951, 30 Apr 2013s advance has jellybean update in india...so does it make s... morethen go for s adv.
                    my cousin bought it and he is facing problems
                    network issue - major issue,
                    low loudspeaker
                    considering 1500 mah battery drains faster than sola(checked)..
                    and i also wanted to buy s adv before purchasing sola but sam stopped manufacturing it and every one said not to buy this phone or loose warranty...
                    so these are the flaws which made my mind to sola
                    if it is available in yr region then buy it

                    my sola is running smoother than s adv .
                    nfs most wanted runs more smooth in sola than s adv(checked)..

                    so its up to you.. go ahead

                        varun, 30 Apr 2013all three are top notch phones with advantages and dis adva... mores advance has jellybean update in india...so does it make s advance a better option when compared to sola coz jb has project butter...and would you still recommend 620 or sola comparing s adv(jb) with other two ? leaving 620 apart sgs adv has amoled display,768 mb ram against 512 in sola and also the same processor used in s2..benchmarks show performance of sgs adv is near s2 and better than sola on paper...does benchmarks really matter in real usage? file manager problem is really bothering me from choosing 620...if there was a file manager in 620 i would have alredy purchased it without troubling u ppl..any solution for filemanager issue in 620 ?

                          Do not buy this phone!...This is a complete disaster by the company... The touch on my phone completely stopped working after about 7 months...The company has taken my phone for servicing and it has been 2 months and i still have not gotten anything back. Trust me SONY service is the worst!!!

                                  AnonD-140951, 30 Apr 2013Am planning to buy a new phone...had htc explorer earlier..... moreall three are top notch phones with advantages and dis advantages..

                                  acc to ur concern
                                  the best display is of xperia sola 265 ppi as u can see
                                  and the mobile bravia engine.
                                  i currently using sola.
                                  all 3 phones are dual core
                                  the ram is same of lumia and sola and 768 on s adv
                                  the smoothest phone is wp8 lumia as its os is not heavy but lack of apps...

                                  sola and s adv is same
                                  both runs GB but sola comes with 4.0 update out and s adv still no jb or ics news..

                                  camera is best on lumia... in night and video rec
                                  sola's day photography is exeptional and rec is best but in night it has lot of grains in video.

                                  for day time sola is good but at night and overall performer lumia wins..
                                  lumia cnt be comparable with sola in day
                                  s adv has no zoom and the camera is bad so stay away.
                                  sola dsnt have front cam as dont need cam so i purchased it now if u want front cam go with 620.

                                  and s adv is outdated phn now older than sola and yup its looks are boring
                                  for looks sola wins

                                  battery - sola 1320, s adv - 1500 but drains faster than sola, lumia- 1320 runs max than both.

                                  overall
                                  sola 7/10
                                  pros: great performance, touch, looks, camera (in day), gameplay fluid, good bttery, good accsories provided (buy from flipkart and u will get xperia s headphones inside the box which costs around 1200)
                                  cons: no frnt cam, 0.3 inch small screen than s adv and 0.1 small than 620, camera night time avg, usb on the go only in this phone, floating touch(after 4.0 update it works on entire ui), bravia engine stunning video playback 720p with quality , nfc only in this phn with tags.


                                  lumia 620:
                                  pros: good camera both frnt and rear, smooth processor, latest wp8, good bttery , good built quality.

                                  cons: wp8 low apps and 3rd party apps dnt wrk , mostly paid apps.
                                  slightly thick and heavy , looks are avg

                                  s adv: pros- has very good features
                                  supr amoled disp crisp than wp8
                                  16 gb mem.
                                  cons: GB outdated phone no official jb update, bad cam and bttery, call drop issues ntwrk problem, hangs quite often.

                                  so, if u want perfect phone with all the good things go for lumia but not considering apps.
                                  and if u dont want frnt cam but android go for sola
                                  next good option than s adv .
