Best Mobile deals this Diwali

Here are some of the best online deals this Diwali. While most of these phones are the old work horse for their respective makers but they are still admired.

Diwali is round the corner and shopping is the order of day, so search for deals is inevitable, here is our attempt to make this search easier at least for the mobile phone buyers.

Here are four phones that are available at amazing discounted prices or comes with freebies to lure consumers.

Motorola Milestone

This one phone brought Motorola back to the limelight. Though it is old now, it gets a hardware that is underclocked and runs at 600 MHz, and that shows in its performance. While 600 sounds low, it runs so smooth that I had to do a re-check for the specification. Some users have even gone ahead and over clocked the phone to run at 1.2 GHz processor speed. You can use apps like Universal Androot and then overclock the phone using the Milestone Overclock, though it’s not advisable for lay users.

What’s more, you get 2.1 but that is upgradable to 2.3.The phone has a 3.7 inch capacitive touchscreen and a full slide out Qwerty keypad, along with that you get 5 megapixel camera with 24 video recording and xenon flash.

The battery is a 14mAh unit which is good for a day of medium usage which is what any average Android phone gives. 3G, WiFi, and all the other goodies generally associated with Android are available as well.

And now comes the best part, you get all this for just Rs 13,500 through Flipkart, and this is really an exclusive deal from them it seems as most other websites are offering this phone at close to Rs 17,000 price bracket.

Acer Ferrari Liquid E

If you are big fan of Ferrari, this offer is just for you. For Rs 18,500, you get a chance to buy a licensed Ferrari phone from Acer. It’s not just the name that’s fast, you get a 1 GHz processor, Android 2.1 that is upgradable to Android 2.2 (upgrade is already available). Other features like 3G, WiFi, and GPS that you normally associate with Android are there too.

You also get a 5.0 megapixel auto focus camera with 720P video capture capability,
Ferrari is about Italian design, and this phone is no different, it flaunts a bold yet elegant design: the glossy red casing with trim makes it a true pleasure for the eyes. The front is dominated by a spacious 3.5-inch, hi-resolution capacitive touchscreen, while the back sports the legendary “Scuderia Ferrari” shield with details in carbon fiber, while the redesigned microphone recalls the “air intake inlet”.

Apart from the attractive price of Rs 18,500, you also get a Ferrari bluetooth headset, and 8 Micro card free with this phone at Letsbuy.com. Futurebazaar.com is offering this phone with Android 2.2 upgarde at Rs 17,999, but is not clear whether the Ferrari Bluetooth handsfree is there or not. Call them up before you decide on which one to buy.

Samsung Wave S5253

This is one deal at Flipcart.com that will appeal to people looking for good value for money and looking for a feature phone. Samsung Wave is available for Rs 6,000, and that is the price at which high end feature phones are available whereas Wave is a smartphone.

It gets a 3.2 inch capacitive touchscreen, 3.2 megapixel camera, A-GPS, 3G, WiFi, expandable memory up to 16 GB (4 GB free), FM radio with recording. What’s more, you get to download apps from the Bada operating system’s (Wave is based on Bada, which is Samsung’s own smartphone OS) apps store.

Though upgrade to Bada 2.0 is not yet available for Wave, it is likley to be introduced sooner rather than later.
