Chip - India's Most Trusted Guide To Gadgets And Technology > Budget Androids > Buying Guides > Hardware > Mobile Phones: "With the different form-factors and hardware specs, it was really difficult to gauge the best phone of the lot until I actually began using them. My first experience was with the LG Optimus One, and I loved it until the Sony Experia X8 arrived. The Optimus One is a rugged handset with great ergonomics, but the Sony Ericsson was a classy looking phone. Though the camera was not as impressive, the display was crisp and bright. The Spice Mi-300 was another one that grabbed my attention. With a crisp display, swift UI, an optical trackpad and the lowest price, the Mi-300 was destined to win the Best Value title. If you look closely at the tables, the Mi-300 would have won Best Performance too had it not been for the Motorola Defy. But overall, I would recommend the Defy. The only downside to this phone is that it will only get its FroYo update in late Q2 2011."
