To tap rapidly growing entry level mobile handset market, Sony Ericsson has revealed its first “Made in India, Made for India mobile” phone, the R300 Radio phone.

The company’s latest step is an attempt to address the needs of its customers in tier 2 markets and provide them with an option to listen to their favorite show or live cricket commentary on the move.

According to the company, R300 is targeted at those customers who either don't want a phone with an MP3 player or can't afford one.

The R300 has a 65k color, 128x160 pixel TFT display, VGA Camera along with 8MB internal memory. It comes with FM & AM frequencies, a first for radio phones in India.

I have bought it and it is only ok as of now. The clarity is not that good for FM and AM.

Well whats the cost of the phone Mr.dsrscore...?? And also any special USP of the phone..??

The cost is Rs.4500 and the phone is sleek in design and is not so bulky as some Nokia phones are.

But the camera is very bad and the picture quality is bad too

Thanks for your info, Mr.Dsr. Well camera is an important feature that I would consider while buying a phone and if its not good, then I might not consider it...!

Also sorry roh for the late reply

I think Roh has finished his monthly usage so he is not coming online in day time and he is coming online only in free time in the morning...
