then you should ask him to request the unlock code and not wait till may, because no one know what AT&T would do at that time, now it is pretty easy to get.

last time i got it for 2990 inr, this time since it is limited to 1 item per order and shipping extra , so finally landing cost should be below 4000

No shipping options for india…???

you may have to try a couple of times to get the un-lock code. last time it costed 46$ (phone+S&H+Import) through PPO, PPO now has only NJ address. so no way to skip 3$ shipping

but off-lately i find BLU WIN HD LTE more compelling than this @ 4,750 Inr you get LTE Dual sim and warranty (at least for namesake)

+1

Blu Win HD LTE is definitely good. The main drawback in that is the camera.

@PaytmKaPoojari any way to get it here?

u can get it through ppobox .But last time on the moto e deal heard they had started cancelling the orders to the ppobox address . There may be many other mail forwarders but i guess ppobox is the most reliable atleast among the dimer community. So buy with caution . Also yesterday blu win lte jr was avalaible for 3k on snapdeal and i guess they come at that price in plenty of times . I prefer if u buy those since u get lte + warranty ( Someone even said he gave it to service centre and got a piece replaced in a month in 1 review . So not that bad an option if u live in a metro city ) .

Off topic
A queston to dimers Which will be best phones in the 7k to 13k brackets ( I know I havent settled on a price range but still ) . Primary phone maybe good camera and good day to day functioning . Not looking for unboxed or factory refurbished

My list contains the following

Coolpad Note 3 Lite
ZTE Nubia ( If price falls to near 8500 ) . Because of looks + superb cam\
Letv 1s ( seems perfect i fear the heating issue and battery loss + Heavy ui )
Coolpad Note 3
Lenovo K4 ( Not willing to buy because of shitty cc )

Anything im missing or you would like to add.Anything apart from Iphone and Tizen and Ubuntu and Firefox and Sailfish OS

what should I buy lumia 640 or blu win hd

@d3xt3r wrote:

i think blu HD is better if u want to use it with 4g…. and also there is slight performance boost in Blu HD bcoz it uses SD 410 instead of SD 400 used in lumia

@getready @Annamalai Nārāyaṇa correct me if i am wrong

Lumia 640 camera is far superior when compared to that of blu win hd
Build quality of Lumia 640 is also good
But support is guaranteed for microsoft devices unlike others

This is now available on amazon.com (sorry it might have been available from few days but just saw it now). They won’t be shipping it to India, but at least they would ship to mail forwarders and shipping free for $50+ I believe. You can also try getting free prime shipping as 1 month trial.

Good news actually
But getting prime trial is a bad idea
Initially when i signed up for prime trial i was charged 6600 but when i cancelled the subscription after 5 days i was refunded only 6000 (Bank conversion charges arent refunded i guess)
I contacted Amazon US CC and they confirmed that they refunded the full amount and its my bank that charged me few extra bucks

Only thing is shipping terms
Usually ships within 2 to 5 weeks

It mostly won’t take so long as far as I knw, as they try and procure it asap.

I have never faced such situation. I have got prime trial with 2 credit cards and they were always charged $1 (in rupees) and the conversion charges were also refunded.

May be SBI is the culprit here
