I want to purchase a new android smartphone and after checking the websites and specs of various mobiles i have shortlisted three mobiles:Qmobile noir A8Sony xperia U Sony Xperia solaMy budget is 20K. My requirments are that there should be no lag in switching between homescreens, can play decent games(not high requirment like gTA 3 etc.), should have a good enough camera and that I would never need to root the phone. Also the bigger the screen, the better( really a fan of huge screens) because I read ebooks.So a/c to these factors tell me which is the best phone. Also if you can recommend another in my range, I'm all ears.

really? noir would be compared with xperias now??
Bro i was all set on buying xperia but when i read the thread on pakgamer about noir a8 i was really impressed by the specs, benchmarks and all of it. So was asking. Of course we cant compare a local company to an international giant but was just asking for opinion.

simply go for xperia u if you are short on budget. i think i saw one being sold on pg for 17k. if you can add a bit more. sola would definitely be worth it.

ok is it working fine?? what about GPS??? and ICS update?
GPS is working fine. I don't normally use it but when I did it locked at my position in 2-3 seconds. And I haven't got ICS update as yet and I don't think I will so you can forget about that. However if you are into flashing and stuff, you can easily get the official sony ICS firmware for sola from XDA. I have seen the tutorial for it, but haven't tried it as I'm afraid I would brick my phone.
