Two A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) compatible Phones Under Rs.7500

Bluetooth is now a way of life. Wirefree, stylish and with better sound quality than most normal earphones, the new headsets that work in tandem with Bluetooth phones that are A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) compatible are a great combo.

(1)Nokia 5300 – Rs. 7000

The Nokia 5300 is a S40 based phone with a slider design. It’s small, compact and sleek, and comes with a 1.3 megapixel camera. It supports EDGE and even has Infrared if you use it. For PC connectivity you can use miniUSB. Of course it also has Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP support.

The phone is available in two colors – red and black, or dark gray. It has just 5MB of internal memory but you can use microSD cards to expand that. The music player is quite good and in case you find the bundled Nokia earphones not up to par, you can always get a 2.5mm to 3.5mm converter and use your own.

For those of you who tune into the waves, it also has an integrated stereo FM radio. If you don’t like the colors, go for the 'Transformers' special edition, which is available in full black – at a slightly higher price.

(2)Samsung E250 – Rs. 5500

The E2509 is a slim slider that looks good. If it weren’t for the VGA camera and display that’s just 128 x 160 pixels, this phone would kick butt! But then again if you see the price tag, it still does.

The phone offers almost as many options as any other high-end phone: stereo FM radio, Bluetooth with A2DP, EDGE and USB (proprietary) connectivity. It even supports external memory using microSD cards. Quite the all-in-one handset in its price bracket.
