Samsung Wave 525: My Best choice

     On last day of August (2011), I purchased new Mobile phone for me. After a long search and reviewing over internet and local market, I found Samsung Wave 525 (GT-S5253HKUINU) best for me. Actually, I was looking for 3G with Dual Sim but after comparing this model with Samsung Star 2, Samsung Monte, Sony Ericson  cedar, I compromised myself by following ways;

Single Sim as Dual:

     This phone is single sim. But now, I decided to use Mobile Number Portability Service for my current sim card. 

3G speed on 2G network:

     When I tried internet on my Samsung wave 525, I got sufficient internet speed with 2G Docomo and 2G Idea. But call and message charges for Idea are costlier than Docomo, I selected Docomo for Mobile Number Portability Service.

     Another thing to go with this deal is that I got it only at Rs. 5950/- There was an offer. I got a Tiffin box free with this cell phone. (This was not a reason for choosing this phone) I don't know whether this offer is available in other cities or not?

Here are some features which I found useful for me;

Entry level Smartphone, Samsung's BADA Operating System, 3.2 MP camera, GPS, Bluetooth 3.0, Wi Fi connectivity.
