HTC Wildfire available in India for a price of Rs.15000

on July 25, 2010 – 6:49 am86 Comments

We already told  you that the Wildfire is coming soon to India . The handset was expected to hit India in August . 

Now the Wildfire is available in India from various dealers across the country for as low as Rs.15000

Here are the features of the Wildfire

* Android 2.1 OS
* Quand Band GSM , Dual Band 3G
* 3.2-inch capacitive touch
* 5 megapixel camera with auto focus and LED flash
* 3.5mm audio jack
* micro SD
* HTC Sense UI
* Friend Stream Social Networking Application
* Wi-Fi, Bluetooth , GPSGPS
* 528MHZ Qualcomm Processor
* Optical Trackpad
* 384MB RAM
* 512MB ROM
* FM Radio
* 1300 mAh battery
* Talktime : 7 hours
* Standby : 480 hours

In other news still no official word about the Desire. We had a chance to play with the Wildfire and it’s certainly a very affordable Android phone running on Eclair 2.1. It’s a bit slow for some tasks but that’s not going to be a deal breaker . Anyone using a wildfire out there ?

      Look, first of all, both the phones are good. Both have a 3.2 inch capacitive touchscreen display with pinch to zoom feature. Both run on android 2.2, but htc, with its sense UI gives a better experience than galaxy3. Both have a moderate screen resolution of 240X400 pixels, and they both feature WI-FI and 3g functionality. So their is not much difference between the two handsets. Considering camera, the wildfire beats samsung galaxy 3 as it has a 5mp and he latter, a 3.2mp. Also video recording is better in the wildfire. Plus htc wildfire runs on a 524 MHz processor, which is quite fast. So, I would suggest you to go with the wildfire.

      @ Kamal
      Hey dude, if u r actually plannin to buy a smartphone and have got a few options in ur head, I suggest that u add a few more to the list (though I dnt really mean to confuse u further …! ) as Nokia has jus launched four New Smartphones, one better than the other (as regards to value for money as well as bare minimum requirements dat v guys seek). These are C6-01, C7, E7-00 and already hugely popular N8.
      Now it depends on hw much u r actlly plannin 2 spend. Consider your range and then compare wid d phone(s) dat u were most likely to go with as of now.
      As far as HTC Wildfire and Samsung Galaxy r concerned, there’s not much of a difference b/w d two except for the fact that HTC Touch Sense technology is its USP since it’s among the best in the world. Apart from that Camera of Wildfire possesses higher resolution, however, one of my friends who has jus bought one, confirms that the pics taken by Wildfire are also nt dat good too notwithstanding higher pixcel camera. But it still should be better than Galaxy.
      Secondly, HTC is a much more reliable vendor than Samsung, however, that is jus ma personal opinion… Rest is all pretty much the same.
      But if you can wait for about a month or so and r also willing to spend as much as 20k, I’ll strongly recommend u consider Nokia C7-00. It is “todu” phone by all means and that too at a very decent price aftr all.
      U get 8 MP camera, 8 GB internal memory, highly responsive Capacitive Amoled Touch Screen, 3.5″ inch screen width, full HD support, ability to play TV podcasts,an incredible battery back-up of almost 576 mins and over 23 days stand-by time…! Yet, the best thing about this phone is its looks..! You’d jus love it, I’m sure. Have a look at it.

      Go to Nokia India’s website to view more details abt it.

      http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-c7-00/specifications

      If u wish to take dis experience a level still up, then there is E7-00 which will, however, cost u abt 30000 bucks. But then it has introduced few amazing new concepts such as USB support to the cell and doing away wid d conventional Memory Card. But in any case it gives u 16 GB internal memory. Further it boasts a larger screen of 4 inches.Pretty much the rest is same but den it’s a bit over ma range so havn’t given it a thorough look, so there may be some unexplored features.
      But in case u wanna get ur hands on a gadget that’s worth a little less, say 15 k (close to the cost of Wildfire)then C6-01 is the phone to look upto. It has all features of C7 except the ones we can still do widout or u can say, it’s a bit lower version of C7. However, the differences include a lill smaller scr wid 3.2″ size, no HD support and no exuberant internal memory. The rest is pretty much the same here too. Please note that C6-00 (or simply C6) and C6-01 are two very different versions of Nokia C6 and you must consider as same.C6-01 is a upgrade version of C6 as C7 is that of C6-01, so you can choose yourself about exactly where to stop..!

      But one thing dat may deter a few buyers is d Symbain OS powering dese awesome phones and no Android for ‘em. But still if u c even till 2day d largest no. of people r using Symbain powered phones and more imptantly dey are powered by d latest version of Symbain OS, datz Symbian 3. So it shudn’t such a big issue aftr all as d same must b somwhat closer 2 Android even if nt as good as it.
      Guys, pls do share wat u ppl feel as I too am waitin to buy one bt like d rest of us havn’t yet decided which one to go for…!

    Abhishek, the HTC runs on Android 2.1. And HTC is the best known vendor for effortless touch sense. HTC is the way to go.

    • Sneha Gopal

      Hey..how much is the HTC wildfire for??

      • Nadeem

        Wildfire costs 14,800 INR from flipkart in India.

      • Nadeem

        @Snehal – Wildfire costs 14,800 INR from flipkart in India.
        @Dev – You are right mate, Aria will score slightly better because of its better resolution and better video capturing rate.
        I bought a wildfire a month back, and I too was looking for Aria, but due to its unavailability I settled for wilfire.
        Wildfire too is a very impressive phone and I am really happy with it as of now .. though some times QVGA screen becomes a bit tricky to work with.
        @Divyanshu – Hey mate you can get wildfire at flipkart.com .. they will deliver it to you in 3-4 days and you also get the option of paying cash-on-delivery if you want, apart from net banking and CC payment options.
        My experience of buying wildfire from flipkart.com was good and smooth.

Its hardly been 2 months and in the best of condition. Please email me on snehagopal@gmail.com
