Let’s start comparing these phones

Display

Models	Nokia Lumia 800	Nokia Lumia 710	Samsung Omnia W	HTC Radar	Winner
Display Size	3.7”	3.7”	3.7”	3.8”	0.1” more in HTC Radar though it is negligible

Video Recording	720P HD	720P HD	720P HD	720P HD	Same Here

Lumia 800 have a slight edge over others but at such a high price it nearly nullifies the positive side of having a 8 MP camera and HTC Radar also flops miserably in this department because at such a high price we really want something special form HTC. On the other hand Samsung Omnia W features a secondary camera at such a low price compared to others and it also got a decent primary camera rivalling HTC Radar. So this category is also won be Samsung Omnia W.

Resale Value	Nokia’s resale value is decreasing in India as the popularity of their phones is decreasing day by day. So it has a mid resale value.	Nokia’s resale value is decreasing in India as the popularity of their phones is decreasing day by day. So it has a mid resale value.	Samsung’s now has a large number of service centre’s through out India and after adopting Android their resale value increases substantially.	With lees service centre’s and lack of advertisement HTC is struggling to grow in this mobile crazy nation and also their mobiles are ridiculously priced here which is ultimately a loss for HTC only.
