according to them adexmart is reliable. if you can get COD with adexmart, then just go ahead with it.

C3200 is no longer available guess. Read in GSMArena that it reboots frequently. i have used this mobile though interface is a bit slow but mobile is extremely light. moreover no update is released for it till date.

at a budget of >4k, i won't recommend any of these mobile cause of the low resolution screen and VGA cameras. another option is this: Samsung Metro C3752 but its better to go for Cedar instead of the Samsungs as they lack 3G.

Samsung 3530 is also a good phone
