6 Best Windows Phone Smartphones Under 15,000


Bangalore: Ok, we agree! Android does rule the world, but for people who always look for a change, Windows Phones are the best choice than the costly iPhones and BlackBerrys, at least in India.

So if you are a member of Windows fanfare or a mobile enthusiast who needs a change from the labyrinth of Android handsets, here are some best, affordable options in the Windows Phone category for you.
