Dost

Motorola phone ke baare mein aapka kya khayal hai.(Though i don't want a flip phone)
Don't you think they are better reception wise?

@jingalala I would suggest you to go for Reliance CDMA LG R3000 Or any phone in this range..
You can get within RS 1200 to 1500 with lifetime incoming validity. And beleive me.. Reliance CDMA voice quality is cristal clear and very loud even without speaker.. (however LG R3000 has speaker). My Grand Father is quite comfortable using this phone.
But Battery life is not long though.
I have personally used Reliace CDMA for a very long time

well , maybe u can try nokia 2626 its 2k , very good battery life and good call quality.Bought it for my dad recenty who wanted a very simple ,basic phone. I think its a good one below2k.

goodluck!


Btw there is also nokia1650 ,also very good battery life and call quality,reception etc

I really think from nokia below 2k this two r very good ( i dont know about other models much at this cost)
