I am looking to purchase a cell phone and my budget is restricted to 25k (though 1-2k more won't hurt).

So please suggest any good cell phone in that price range.
Primary features needed are
1. Big screen (3.7 inch more or less)
2. Good Camera
3. Front cam for video call would be great feature (though I know most of these phones are not having those front cam)
4. Android or windows (please suggest about OS, which one is better)
5. Sleek designs ( NO THOBRA PLEASE)

Any input would be great.

Regards

P.S. So far following seems interesting.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S Price & Specifications - Sony Ericsson Pakistan

HTC One V Price & Specifications - HTC Pakistan

The phone that Ammar suggested and the Arc S are great, the One V is crap for that price.

Don't go for windows phone as they will not get windows 8 update, get any dual core phone in this price range like sold, or galaxy advance or ace 2

DONT GET xperia sola it has 4GB internal SD partition meaning you cant install any apps to SD card. A game or offline map can take more than 1GB so you will be seriously limited in what you can do. Up the budget and get xperia P or I'll recommend the nexus S over xperia sola.

Around 2GB but there isnt enough for "app data" like big games and things like syngic maps so big applications is going to be a serious problem. You only have 4GB for that, any phone which has internal SD partition cannot use SD card for applications. Dont know why manufacturers are still doing this either give 10GB+ space or none at all so people can use their card instead.

The xperia P also has an IPS screen unlike most sony phones so it really is worth it, the viewing angles on most sony phones are just ridiculously bad.

I dont think xperia sola is better than nexus S. You get dual core CPU but what else? Its got the same 512MB ram and the GPU isnt any better either. Nexus S has a bigger and higher quality screen, more internal memory and the latest android version. Xperia sola is still on gingerbread.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
