Verdict

While at its offering price, the phone packs a punch but still it lacks in many aspects. Its weak battery and small screen size will hinder its market sales. It will face stiff competition from other phones in the same price range like Xiaomi Redmi 1s, Videocon Infinium Z50 Nova and Lava Iris 350 M. If all you want from your phone is high performance at a low cost, this is a phone to go to at such an economical price. For users who wish to make their phone last a day at least with a sufficiently large display, there are other phones that might do the trick but not iBall’s Andi Uddaan Mini.
