Okay guys, i need a symbian fone that has a tight camera, is stylish and doesn't drain battery. pls wen commenting tell me how much it costs.

you didn't include the price range.

Okay not more than 25k

I will advise you go for Nokia E5 cost btw 18-20k for fairly used and btw 25-28k for new one.

Impulse80: Okay not more than 25k

The best symbian phone you can get for that price range is Nokia 500. Not only is it the most current in that range but it runs symbian Belle which is several generations ahead of and way way better than S60V3 and S60V5 which is what you get on the lower C and E series.
Spec-wise, its also above its contemporaries. Here is a link to the spec page: http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_500-4085.php

Excellent Ba.3 life and the best smartphone in Realtime Multitasking with appz Runnin in da background (Not Task Switching ala Android and WP)

proper MULTITASKING
Nokia E5 (still the King with 74 Apps running simutaneously (25k) and Nokia 603 with 64 Appz and great ba3 life. (37k)

Add 7k to that your 25k and buy a Samsung Galaxy Ace. It's an android phone and is waaaaay better than all these "crappy" suggestions.

First, the op asked for a symbian phone. If you wanted to recommend an android device you should have done that without calling other peoples post crappy.

Secondly, recommending a low-end android device to someone is something I never do. As far as low-end android device is concerned, what you get is more of a buggy annoying device.


So the delusion of 'its an android phone' doesn't apply in any way to the cheaper devices. Symbian on the other hand gives much better performance on lower specs. Someone buying a phone of about 25k knows what to expect.


I said Nokia 500 because I am absolutely sure that Nokia 500 will provide a much more better user experience in almost every way than the galaxy ace.

ive got a clean used nokia e5 for 18k

a friend of mine has this nokia 500 but he says d fone is not worth it, it hangs and restarts up to 5 times a day and it doesnt play HD games. The fone kinda feels 2 plastic to me.

The E5 is a very nice fone, but i'm still thinking among N96, N86 and the E5 which to buy, the N86 has 8MP camera, while the N96 has digital Tv, the E65 has fantastic QWERTY keys. Why cant there b one fone that has all these specs?

This is where Nokia's other problems started from. Fragmentatioo.
if u want good battery life, proper multitasking and wanna AVOID FLEX PROBLEMS, try E5.

i would advice you go for the E5 or C5 but man no symbian phone like ma navigator!

C6

Hey OP! To get a good symbian device , you need to tell us a couple of things. How much are you willing to spend? Would you pick specs like camera over CPU and GPU and RAM? etc.
For starts, I'll advise you not to buy any Nokia phone that doesn't run on at least symbian^3. Symbian 3 devices are upgradeable to Belle refresh (not really sure). All the E series they mentioned above are all s60v5 (apart from the E6, which comes with Anna and I call it Nokia's version of the bold 5 cuz it's touch and type).
I use a Nokia 603 and I got it for almost 37k brand new from phone mart @ ilorin (cheaper than slot's own that sells for almost 39k as at June). Even though it doesn't have a flash, the camera is superb at 5 MP. Except you're a night photographer. competed against Sony Ericcson xperia HD and htc 4G and beat them.
processor is 1 GHz, ROM is 1 GB and RAM is 512. The apps available are off the hook. Microsoft mobile on Belle fp1 update, CNN app, digital dolby, internet radio, PES 2012 HD, Shrek cart, Sims, need for speed, asphalt 6 hd, audio book and ebook reader (currently reading game of thrones and spook's blood on my phone ). The HD games are not usually less than 100 MB.
Overall it's a wonderful device that beats any blackberry and can stand it's ground against some Android phones too.

na e5-00 sure pass oo... Fact

I bought the Nokia N96, and the phone is so cool!
