My friend wants to buy mobile in the budget of 8k.

He is interested in Sony Ericsson W395. Is this mobile good for him? ;)

Is samsung good?

He prefers SE. Its fast & has walkman. :D

One think he wants to confirm that the new SEW395 supports Opera mini & downloadable

themes or not? He really wants browser support. If not opera then sumthin else.

Music is a must :D

Go for Samsung Star w/o any second thought, earlier i was buying star only but due to huge price drop by nokia on 5800 i went for that :)

Samsung star is the best deal at 8.5k, you get...

3" screen

3.2mp nice camera(no auto focus and flash btw)

touch screen

very nice browsing capabitlities(as u mentioned he want good browsing experience)

loudspeaker is indeed loud, can easily beat that SE w395

[check reviews mannn :p]

there is no comparison b/w se w395 and samsung star imo .... total pWnage :lol:

At last it's once own choice , bst of luck !

Hi, i'm his friend. :-D
thanks for creating this thread. :)
i want to go for a compact *music phone, *gaming, occasional browsing , good cam. (cam not priority tho).
My dad has n97, n' found i'm not into touch screens, i use its keyboard more.
Samsung has no keypad right?
I'm more into slide ph's. They r compact & i like that.
R there any other mobiles wch r fast like SE's?
My laptop's gfx went dead, so i'm on my nokia 5200. :-D cant do much googling.
gsmarena stated w395 has wifi. Is tat true?
