Default cheap Fall-Back Cellphone within 3 k ?


guys i need a cellphone as a backup when i cannot take my n73me

the features needed are

1. Colour screen
2. Good Battery life
3. Good signal reception
4. FM if possible?

can you please recommend a cellphone within 3 k?

i'll be taking it to quite remote regions and signal clarity as well as good build quality are of utmost importance.......

IMO, none of the cellphones with colour display are now as sturdy as the older mono screen ones used to be. if you want a simple phone widout colour screen and sms then get nokia 1110 or 1112.

Don't go in for SE J series. Personal experience says they are very delicate.
