India has an interesting handset market, Apples stupidly high prices just dont cut the mustard there so midrange Android phones very do well. Sony have had some success there as have HTC, Sony has also released some India only bits of hardware - annoyingly so too.
There is a great flurry of incoming handsets from Indian manufacturers, while support and warranty might be an issue (not to mention Insurance) you can import them low cost.
Since the local currency is on its ass, there are some bargains to be had. Talking of which.
Bargain
Xolo has announced a new Android handset to their range with the launch of the Xolo Q1000S, the handset will come with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
The Xolo Q1000S features a 5 inch HD display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, processing comes in the form of a quad core 1.5Ghz MediaTek processor and it also features 1GB of RAM.
Other specifications on the Xolo Q1000S include front and rear facing cameras. On the front of the handset is a 5 megapixel camera, on the back there is a 13 megapixel camera it also comes with 16GB of built in storage.
The Xolo Q1000S will be launched in India in the next few weeks, it will retail for the equivalent of $300/ £250
Sony have the Xperia L and M in that kind of target price range, and cost a little more - neither has a quad core CPU or camera on the front or back of that spec.
We havent found a decent importer for the phone yet but once we do, We will update here - so check back.
