How about the new Samsung Galaxy I9003 ?? It's the cheaper replacement of Galaxy S only with a SuperClear LCD screen like the Wave II.
Not much of a difference other than the screen and the proccy.

So hope it sells for 20kish like the Desire :)

It's funny how Moto Defy is being recommended when HTC Desire has better specs at around the same price :)
Its not the same price :p

Moto Defy ~ 18k. HTC Desire ~ 22k. But since he has the budget for the Desire it is highly recommended he goes for it :)

Defy will have a longer product life than the Desire..

And on what basis is that statement coming from ?

inside bytes or some real nerdy calculations of your own i suppose ?

Defy's cam pales in comparison with the cam of the HTC Desire. So another pt Desire scores.

One can never be so sure...

Afterall, I don't see the Milestone going down the age line too well either.

But still, if not the Desire, the next bet would be the Defy.

^ It has 65k color screen isn't it? It's a show stopper imo.
I think the colour limitation was due to the OS i.e. Windows Mobile 6.5

The Defy is a good phone for 18k but again its lower spec'd in comparison to the Desire. Plus the Desire has been around for quite sometime and has a lot of ROMs to choose from , in comparison to the Defy there are hardly any and even those ROMs are quite risky. Plenty of people have problems getting their flash to work again or phone to boot after trying a few ROMs.

If the budget is 22k, its the Desire no doubt.
