Design and Quality

Micromax is seeing tough competition from Xiaomi Mobiles but the company still holds first position in the run for having good grip in the offline market. The handset is made up of plastic while the front is glass. The back though doesn’t have the mate finish but still it provide good grip. The back carries the rear camera with an LED light which lies at the top left corner while there is company logo in the center and the speaker towards the bottom. The front of the phone occupies the screen and on the top of the screen is the front facing camera, sensor and the speaker while towards the bottom of the screen are three navigation touchscreen keys.

OS and Tech

The OS in this handset is quite latest. It is rather becoming a norm to have latest KitKat OS in all mid-range devices. So that it gives good boost in performance of the device along with quick multitasking. 1GB RAM is also giving it a good support along with capable enough processor so the performance of this handset is very much acceptable and hardly any laps been observed.

Camera and Multimedia

The back camera has an LED flash and the autofocus feature. This works decent in clicking the pictures. The quality of images is not very impressive and this is for sure not at all a choice for the photographers but still images are of presentable form. It can also record videos of presentable quality which runs smoothly on the 4.5-inch screen of the handset. The front camera is very rudimentary VGA and works only for the video calls and selfies but the quality is compromised as well due to being very rudimentary.

Battery and Memory

1700mAh removable battery is quite decent if one compares it with the size of the screen. Since the screen is not too large so this battery will easily keeps it working for the whole day. 1700mAh battery can provide 7hrs of talk time and 210hrs of standby time as per claims of the company. 1GB of RAM is quite enough to provide fast multitasking experience while the 8GB expandable up to 32GB internal storage is also not bad.
