Best mobile if you aren't a multimedia buff

I got this mobile a couple of days back... At this point of time all I could say is that if you are looking for budget Android mobile which is good in mobility and web related features, you must grab it. in case of multimedia its good only for casual gaming and casual video viewing... you won't get a powerhouse in it.

Pros:
- Super cheap price considering the specs
- Good audio
- No sluggishness, nice responsive screen
- has all features like secondary camera, capacitive screen etc

Cons:
- ...

Nice and Spicy ;)

I got this phone a week ago from flipkart. No question about the services of coarse.
This is a nice phone in the little budget and has got all the features a phone should have. Camera is fine (Don't expect too much) and front camera is only good for video calling. The 650Mhz processor bundled with a 200Mhz GPU will allow nice multitasking on the device. Voice is louder than the other Android Phones (Below 10000) but you have to compromise on quality a bit. The touch screen is very responsive ...

Amazing phone at amazing price

A very reasonable price for an entry level android phone. @ Rs. 5299 this is the best phone I have found. If anyone is looking for an android phone within a range of 5-8k, I would suggest to buy Spive MI-280. This is much better than Samsung Galaxy Y and does not hang, restart, goes slow as Galaxy Y. Camera performance is also much better than Galaxy Y as this one is having 3.2 MP cam and also front cam for VC.

SPICE-MI-280 BEST MOBILE, VALUE FOR MONEY.

SPIECE-MI-280 (SILVER) MOBILE IS BEST VALUE FOR MONEY AND HAVING ALL FEATURES. IT WOULD BE MORE ATTRACTIVE IF SCREEN SIZE WOULD BE 3.0" INSTEAD OF 2.8". ABOVE ALL IT IS A VERY GOOD MOBILE. ONE SHOULD PURCHASE THIS MOBILE SET WITHOUT ANY DOUBT AND DELAY. ITS BATTERY TALK TIME IS LOW. AT LEAST FOUR HOURS SHOULD BE TALK TIME OF BATTERY CAPACITY. ITS WEIGHT IS VERY GOOD.
