Top 5 Smartphones With Keypads

There are a lot of people out there who aren’t ready to join the “touch revolution” and would prefer a keypad on their devices for typing at least!. So we decided to make a list of the top 5 smartphones that weren’t full touchscreens. 

1. The Blackberry Range

 

The most obvious choice. Ever since the launch of the Blackberry 10, the focus has shifted to the all touch Z10. But the older generation of Blackberry smartphones, with the widely loved QWERTY keyboards,

are still selling strong.

You have a variety of phones to choose from, and from every price bracket. The Curve 9220, the Curve 9360, Bold 9900 etc. These phones still pack in a decent OS- Blackberry 7 OS and offer a variety of features that you would expect from a smartphone. 

The first choice for someone looking for some keyboard love.

2. Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro

 

 

The fact that this phone still has Ericsson in its name shows that it was released quite some time ago. It comes with Android 4.0 on board. The rest of the features? A physical QWERTY keyboard, 1 GHz Scorpion Processor with 512MB RAM, a LED-backlit Reality display with Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine, an 8 megapixel ExmorR camera sensor, 720p video with continuous autofocus.

It’s the kind of phone that can enjoy demand from both business users and social networking fans.

Price – Around Rs 12,000 – 16,000.

3. Samsung Galaxy Chat B5330

The Samsung Galaxy Chat B5330 is a touch and type device, that gives users the comfort of typing on a physical keypad. And the best thing is that it runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich!

The phone has 4 GB of inbuilt memory space which can be expanded to 32 GB using a micro SD card. It has a reasonable 850 MHz processor with 512 MB RAM. 

Android and a keypad? Yes please!

Price – Rs. 7,990

4. Nokia Asha 302

Nokia ASHA is one of the latest entrants in the market. It packs a 2.4 inch QVGA TFT display, Series 40 OS, a 1 GHz single core processor,3.2 megapixel camera,WI-Fi ,3.5 G connectivity. It’s memory can be expanded with  a Micro-SD card up to 32 GB.

Decent!

Price - Rs. 6,548.

5. Nokia E6

Launched a long time ago, we’re still quite fond of this touch/type smartphone. It packs a premium build quality, an excellent display and the desired QWERTY keyboard.  

The phone runs on Symbian Anna operating system. Powered by a 680 MHz ARM11 processor, the Nokia E6 comes with 256 MB RAM. The handset has a display of 2.46-inch with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. It also has an 8MP camera with a LED flash.  

The drawback? Lack of quality apps. Still a decent purchase if you can find it in the market.  

Price – Around Rs 10,000.
