Hi Saurav,

it depends upon your choice. i am also a fan of SAMSUNG brand as they make good products.But i am using MICROMAX A70 right now.

The Pros of Samsung Galaxy mini over Micromax A70:
1) It has 484Mb RAM as A70 has 256Mb,
2) The battery life of Samsung is better than A70,
3) The bundled earphones are good and sound quality is also good.

The Pros of Micromax A70 over Samsung Galaxy mini:
1) The screen size and video resolution is bigger than Galaxy mini to enjoy Video and gaming experience,
2) A70 has 5 MP rear camera which is good at capturing as Galaxy mini has 3.15 MP,
3) It has front VGA camera for video calls which Galaxy don't,
4) The price of Galaxy mini is about Rs 8000 and you can get A70 within Rs7000 or less at LETSBUY.COM with promo coupon code.

I was also confused in between same models when i thought to buy a cellphone. I choose Micromax A70 and i m very happy with it. The choice is yours.

^^You shoulda wrote "pros" instead of "cons"

Trust me Galaxy mini has HORRIBLE battery life,.. im much satisfied with my a70 now
But u missed the most important advantage a70 has over mini. screen resolution..

A70 has 320by480 HVGA
Mini has 240by320 QVGA
There are loads of apps in market that will not properly work in mini at that resolution
Even if mini has the extra ram, it wont be of much use if there are no apps that use that much ram.. will it ?

I was afraid to buy Micromax because I was not sure about quality but if you are using it without any problem then I think I should go with it.
What about its sound quality?

 

[sunil90]

if you meant call clarity.. it is excellent
The loudspeaker is average, it wont sound that loud in crowded environments
but for price of Rs 6857, im more than impressed by this

By SOUND QUALITY i mean to say about the music playback.
You will need better headphone for A70 for better music playback.
If you just want headphone to listen to music then buy SOUNDMAGIC PL11 for Rs 550 or CREATIVE EP630 for Rs600-700.. .. .. .. ..
