I set out to buy a laptop with some very simple requirements: * FHD screen * A 2GB nvidia processor (I do cuda work) * Support for Wifi AC (5ghz) My budget is around 60k. This, I would think is a very modest requirement from a laptop in 2015. Additionally I would love it if the build quality is...

Allright, I did a stupid stupid thing. In a fit of rage I smashed my cellphone against the wall. Now the LCD is smashed. It was a SE G 502. How much do you think a replacement LCD costs for it? And should I go to any local service guy or to the SE official center?

I bought the G502 recently enough but having been in recent contact with the Nokia E series, have fallen in love with it. Buying a new phone so soon is very wasteful so I am looking to pick up an used E63 or E71. Any idea where I can pick up second hand phones in Mumbai. [Andheri/Parle area...
