Good move by Samsung but the Pricing is still too high…. If they can slot it for around rs 20000-22000 it would be a good deal and can provide stiff competition to indian companies like Micromax , Karbonn , Xolo as well as Gionee and Lenovo…..
I have been a technical analyst for electronic gadget and found Grand 2 is not a good phone.the processor used would slow down in few months.money is precious so think before investment.

Is xperia Zr betr than this one?
Sir can u tel me which one is better Xperia Zr or nexus 4 or s3 or s4 mini or grand? im really confused..

Xperia ZL is better in all aspect., ZL and ZR is of same price so with ZL….

Going to buy this phone now, hope it will be available on Flipkart earlier next year.
