It will be my first touchscreen phone and I do not want to spend more than 6-7000 rupees, so which one fits the bill best? I am thinking of going for Nokia Asha 501, what are your views?

Samsung has many ranges which fall within that range and they are sturdy ...I have one Samsung Galaxy which I am using since a year now and am quite happy with.I too dont like spending huge amount on mobile phones and this suited my budget..

Can you tell me the resolution of camera in Samsung Galaxy? In Nokia Asha, it is 3.2 MP and I want at least that much or higher resolution!

Kalyani, I think it is definitely above that of Asha, may be 4.1 in some and s.3 in some models...

Honestly.. I avoid nokia Asha series because in same price in Android you can do lot more.I mean you can have more apps and games. But still if you don't do more things like apps and gaming then it would be okay.... If you want to experience android then Xolo a500s and Micromax canvas fun is good and its in range you mentioned.

I was really hoping that you would answer my question! I am more concerned with being connected to either facebook or google and uploading pictures with good resolution. I do not need any different apps, so is Nokia Asha good enough for that? Or should I go for some other like Xolo...my budget is below rs. 7000!

I think the nokia phone you have mentioned is having 3MP camera. Xolo a500s is having 5mp which takes good quality pictures in day light. You will get it around in 6000 to 6500 Rs... And as you mentioned you are more concerned about getting connected with social sites then android is best in compare of other mobile OS.
I have used Nokia windows phone, but never experienced Nokia Asha series, so can't tell more about it.

For Rs.7000, or for a few more hundreds, you can get Nokia Lumia 520 which is the most complete phone at that price range.

[*] 1 Ghz processor
[*] 5 MP Camera
[*] 512 MB RAM

You can best deals online instead of your local store. Check out the prices on Amazon India website or on Snapdeal website. I remember it was selling for Rs.7200 on Amazon during GOSF a few days before.

Hm.. Yes that's a good choice. But I don't think Lumia (windows 8 mobile) is that easy in usage. I haven't used it so far, but my uncle just transferred from lumia to Android.. so.
