Panasonic T9 Mobile Price in India
Panasonic is one of the struggling brands when it comes to Smartphone manufacturing. Panasonic is known for making low end smartphones which costs around 10000 INR. Recently they have launched a new Smartphone Panasonic T9 dual Sim Smartphone which is really good smartphone is you want to have an affordable smartphone with basic android functionalities. Panasonic T9 comes with 4.4 Android version and 4GB of in-build storage.
Features and Specifications:
The Panasonic T9 is a dual SIM phone with 3.50 inches TFT LCD and HVGA 320 x 480 Pixel. The phone is packed with 4GB of in-build storage and allows users to expand it to 32GB at max. The processor of T9 is very basic i.e. 1.3GHz dual core processor with 512MB RAM. As I said this smartphone is just to have a basic functionality of Android, you cannot load many games or apps in this smartphone as it has a pretty low RAM. The battery used in T9 is of 1300mAh which I guess will be enough to last a day as it doesn’t have HD display or a higher processor.
Design and Quality:
The design of Panasonic T9 is very basic with 3.5 Inches display screen with ~180ppi and 179 x 63.7 x 10.1 dimensions. It has a standard resolution of 320 x 480 pixels. The look of T9 is very simple with a speaker at the front top and navigation keys at the bottom of the screen. The back panel of T9 is removable and it has aligned speaker, camera and LED in a horizontal line at the top of the back panel. The T9 has a decent look and is available in Blue, White and Black colors.
OS and Tech:
The Panasonic T9 as I said is not the phone with which you can do much more but it will still give you the Android feeling at a very cheap price. The T9 is running on 4.4 KitKat OS which is a great deal at the price it has been charged, however there are no updates from the company about launching the lollipop update for this Smartphone. T9 is supported by a 1.3 GHz dual core processor and 512GB RAM. The smartphone has a basic processor which might lead the phone to hangs and lags if filled completely.
Camera and Multimedia:
The camera of T9 is pretty okay when it comes to quality, it is equipped with a 2MP rear camera. As this is a budget phone you cannot expect anything better than at least having a camera at such low price. The rear camera is supported with a flash and video recording. The front camera is 0.3MP which I guess no one will ever use. The images can be taken in dark or low light with a bit of sacrifice in quality.
Battery and Memory:
The battery of T9 is of 1300mAh which can assure you to support all day long without any worries. The in-build memory of T9 is not very satisfying but as it supports an external slot with 32 GB, the storage won’t be a problem.
Pros and Cons:
Pros-
· The Panasonic T9 is very affordable and gives value to the price paid.
· T9 supports an external SD card slot which allows user to have storage up to 32 GB
· Supports the 4.4 Kitkat Android OS
· Dual SIM Smartphone
Cons-
· Very Low in-build Storage
· Lower resolutions
· Camera lacks in term of quality
· Very Low RAM
Verdict:
Panasonic T9 is an extremely affordable smartphone as it costs less than 4000 INR. Panasonic has tried to give out the max you can in this smartphone but at the cost of quality as you see having a 0.3 MP front camera is of no match when you compare it to Xiaomi Redmi 1S which has 1.6 MP camera and costs you just 1000 INR more. T9 survival in market is very difficult as it has to compare with Xiaomi Redmi 1S and Moto E which although costs a bit more but has way better specifications than T9. At the end I would like your opinion on T9, Will you buy it or prefer other smartphones?
