China’s mobile manufacturer companies came to India and defeated every company. It is unimaginable and reality in itself. We have mentioned this so many times that now it has become tedious. But this is the truth, and these companies are also deciding the market strategy. On the roadmap of these companies, from the smallest companies of India, multinational brands are presenting their products.

Some companies have suffered a lot by joining this race, but Sony has a stubborn attitude about the specification and price of its product. In such a situation, do not expect any flagship product from this company of Japan in the price segment half -priced. For this reason, Sony’s Xperia M4 Aqua Dual smartphone at first glance seems to be completely lagging behind with a lower price handset. So we have tried to know how Sony can remain intact in this race and we reached a very shocking result.

Look and design
Xperia M4 is a phone with flat back and curved sides made of Aqua dual plastic and glass. White and coral pink versions look good but the black version, which we got for review, looked a little heavy. The silver brand logo across the body, a ring around the rear camera lens and the power button on the side looks a bit different. If the screen is off then it looks like a shining black slab.

The phone is slightly curve and the design is a matte finish, but it is not a little comfortable to hold it due to the flat back. This handset is completely sealed, so all ports and slots can be accessed external. The microSD card slot is in the top side, while the Nano SIM slots are in the right side and both are behind rubber-long flaps.

This is because Xperia M4 is the biggest feature of Aqua that it is waterproof. IP65 and IP68 ratings means that if this handset is left in 1.5 meters deep water for 30 minutes, it will not happen. Apart from this, it is also dust resistant. Interestingly, Sony has shown this wonderful, without covering the 3.5mm audio port and the top on the left on the left, without covering it with a flap. The absence of flap in the micro-USB port is even better, as removing and putting the flap to charge repeatedly can be very disturbing.

The power button is very small and it is given a place in the center on the right side, this position is very strange. There are volume buttons below it. And at the bottom is the shortcut button of the camera. The camera gives a good feeling in touching the button and its position is also given right for the use of the camera. Sony is now the only company that makes such buttons and we like it.

Specification and software
This phone uses Snapdragon 615 SoC processor, which is common for more smartphones nowadays and their price is also less than this phone, but it is not enough. This SoC with four 1.5GHz core and four 1GHz core can deal with a difficult task and also save batteries if needed. The phone has 2 GB of RAM and its internal storage is 16 GB, which can be increased to 32 GB via microSD card.

The 5 -inch screen resolution is 720x1280p. It is less sharp than the full HD screens of the rest of the phone found in this price range, but there is no harmful harm. All things are still sharp and this screen is much better in the case of color reproduction and viewing angle.

The handset has features like Wi-Fi B/G/N, Bluetooth 4.1, A-GPS, FM Radio and NFC. The 2300mHz band being used in India’s 4G network can be accessed by using SIM cards in both slots. Interestingly, support of USB-TG storage is not available in the handset. The battery capacity is 2,400mAh, which is very good for the device of slim.

This phone is based on Android 5.0 operating system, on top of which Sony has used its UI which we liked. Many themes exist, although the designs of more of these are like Sony branded movies or music tie-ins. The company has already been doing so when it has overloaded its software to advertise its media products. You will get the icon of Sony Liv on homescreen, with Sony’s music, albums, movies and playstation apps. Another new app is a big widget of What’s New, whose aim is advertisement. Some preloaded apps such as Line, Movie Creator, File Commander, Stech, Mobisystems Officesuite, AVG Protection and Trackid are useful, while Xperia Lounge and News from Socialife are somewhat spams. Very few of these can be uninstall.

TV SideView is a work app. This will serve as a local TV guide for you and if it is on the same network, then this app gives you the option to use compatible Sony TV. DLNA can browse shares for media through network, and can also enjoy content on Sony’s app on compatiated TV, Bluetooth and speakers.

Sony’s camera app allows you to have a third-party integration, so default superior can download auto, manual, AR effect, creative effect and sweep Panorama modes, besides time laps mode or any other filter app. Apart from this, many famous apps such as Vine, Camscanner Phone PDF and Evernote can also be run.

Performance
Using Sony Xperia M4 Aqua Dual was quite fun and there are no complaints about its speed or response. In addition to the strange placement of the button, there was no problem in holding and using the handset in one hand. The quality of the call was excellent and LTE also worked properly. We saw a problem, after a few minutes of common use, the upper part of the rear side of the phone began to heat up.

The benchmark scores were also good, but this price segment did not have the best results. We got a score of 33,097 in AnTuTu Test and 16,108 in Quadrant Test. GFXBench Test scores a good 22FPS, while 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme got 4,345 points. Video playback was also good and we had no problem in running a 1080p heavy clip. The voice was quite clear and well balanced, but was also quite soft at the maximum volume level.

Especially the battery life was very good, it lasted for 9 hours 58 minutes on the video loop test. Sony claims that after fully charging the handset, you can use it for two days. This is possible, but you will not have to emphasize much than games and web browsing. In the midst of all this, even after heavy use, it will run very easily one day, so you will not have to bother to keep the power bank and charger.

The camera emerged as the biggest feature of the phone. In the complex exposure, the photo drawn from the camera also came with details. We were happy to see that compression and noys were under artifacts control. Even in low light, the camera took pictures with details, which is not normally seen. Finally we had to check the claims of the Sony of the Xperia M4 Aqua being waterproof, so we left this phone for 10 minutes in a tap water -filled basin. Even while in the water, this phone continued, after taking out, there was no problem in using it even after wiping it with a towel. Touchscreen under water does not work but you can use the camera due to the physical button. Waterproofing is an excellent feature in this price range, and you will not worry about the fall of any substance on the handset in the rain or by mistake.

Our decision
On the basis of specifications, this phone does not compete with OnePlus One and other handsets like it, but Sony has given many new features Xperia M4 Aqua Dual and has made it useable, which makes the phone price appropriate. It is also a reality that you are not getting the fastest processor and great screen, but this handset is far ahead in terms of polish products. You are getting features like a good camera, best battery life and waterproofing.

If the price was slightly low, the phone’s market would not have been damaged. By the way, the phone is already available at a short price than its launch price. So keep an eye on the offer. Sony has proved that it can introduce a solid smartphone in the market without being part of the price war.

Like many Chinese companies, Huawei is also trying to make its mark in the budget segment smartphone. Honor range smartphones Honor Hollly and Honor 4X tried to confront difficult rivals. Huawei’s handsets are a great device in itself, but many more handsets like Asus Zenfone 5, Xiaomi Redmi 1S and Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G show a much better ‘value for money’.

This year Huawei came to the market with a new device, Honor 4C. Its price is slightly less than Rs 9,000 and its specifications are also fine. We have reviewed this phone. This time we have tried to know whether Huawei managed to make the best budget device this time.

Look and design
When you pick up Honor 4C, the first feeling will be about its weight. Its weight is 162 grams, which is more than other smartphones found today. And this phone also does not have high capacity batteries, which makes the situation worse. Also the thickness is 8.8 millimeters, whichever is more. Plastic has been used to make Honor 4C, while the rear side has a taxcord design. It is good to look at, but the phone cannot be gripped well. It was repeatedly slipping from our hands. The top of the rear cover has a mate plate on the left side, which has a cutout for primary cameras and flash. At the same time, there are machines made from machine for loudspeakers in the lower back. On removing the rear cover, the battery appears which cannot be taken out of the handset. In addition, three slots remain- for a microSD card and two micro-SIM cards.

Volume rockers and power buttons remain on the right side of the phone. Metal has been used for power button, which can be identified by touching. Micro-USB ports and microphone are at the bottom of the handset, while the top also has a 3.5mm audio port. Three capsitive buttons are built under the screen to use the operating system in the phone, but they are not backlits. Above the display, earpieces, front facing cameras and LED indicators for notifications remain.

Specifications and software
Huawei has used its 1.2GHz Octa-Core Kirin 920 SoC in the handset and has 2 GB RAM for its support. The inbuilt storage of Honor 4C is 8 GB, which can be increased to 32 GB via microSD card. The phone has a 13 -megapixel primary camera, which is excellent and the handset also has a 5 -megapixel front facing camera for selfie.

Honor 4C is a disappointing thing that it does not support 4G network. We believe that this should be a default feature as LTE rollouts are happening very fast. The rest of the connectivity features include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth V4.0 and FM Radio. The battery capacity is 2550mAh.

The resolution of the 5 -inch IPS panel is 720×1280, which has a pixel density (density) 294ppi. Screen Crisp and Colors are natural, but it is also the most on brightness. The viewing angles are also bad. It becomes a little difficult to read anything on the screen in the sun.

The phone runs on Android 4.4.2, above which Emotion UI 3.0 skin of Huawei has been used. It is very disappointing that the phone out of the box does not come with Android Lollipop. There is no app drawer in the skin, so the homescreen appears full of apps. UI looks sleek and is also smooth in using. Like the previous Honor device, this handset has One-Hand UI and suspended button features. Overall, its experience is good.

Performance and camera
Huawei has done a great job of optimizing the performance of software and hardware. The Octa-Core SoC and 2 GB RAM pair are used to smooth the phone and we never have any problem. Some buyers of this handset have complained about the heating of the phone on many platforms, but we did not like it during the benchmarks and battery tests. With this, high-end games went on without stopping.

In the AnTuu and GFXBench Tests, the phone got 24,139 and 6,435 points respectively. Even though the score of GFXBench is low, the antuu score is much higher than the second phone of this price range itself. In the 3DMark Ice Storm Test, the phone scored 5,803, which is once again more than many phones.

The phone did not have difficulty in playing all our video samples. We have always been a complaint about Honor’s phone, that is its sound quality. The speaker and earpiece cause a very slow sound. You will need a headset to enjoy music and videos. We did not face the problem of cocol drop and during our Tests, the connection in the network congested area also remained intact. The video loop lasted for 8 hours 5 minutes before the phone switch off during the test, which is quite good.

The 13 -megapixel rear camera shoots fast. It takes very little time to focus and take pictures with full details, most important. Natural colors give the eyes a very pleasant feeling. We did not complain about any kind of chromatic abuse and barrel distortion. We are very happy with the performance of the camera. Performance in low light is not spectacular, but not bad either. The camera captures the video of 1080p, whose quality was fine. A 5 -megapixel front camera can also capture photos with good details.

Our decision
We believe that Huawei has introduced a very good handset at this price. Honor 4C has a good camera, it performs rapid task and does not have waste software. It would have been good, if the weight of Honor 4C was slightly lower and the quality of voice was good, but these are very small problems. If it is not so necessary for you to take 4G phone, then Honor 4C is a good option for Rs 8,999. In this price range you can buy Yu Yureka, Lenovo A6000 Plus and Lenovo A7000.

Last year LG tried to do something new. The company announced the creation of G Flex, which had a unique 6 -inch curved screen. However, this phone was a variety of experiments and the shortcomings were seen more than expected. The 720p screen of the phone is weaker than its rivals, the phone is excessive and its price is also higher.

After knowing the complaints of the users, the company decided to go on the drawing board and this year LG launched the upgraded version G Flex2. This phone is smaller than its previous variant and has a 1080p display. Apart from this, many more improvements have been made in the handset. For example, self-healing coating has been used in the back of the phone. The Gorilla Glass Screen Protection is better in this handset. Apart from this, G Flex2 is the first smartphone to use the latest and best Octa-Core 64-BIT SOC, Snapdragon 810 processor of Qualcomm. Is LG G Flex2 a better Curvy version? Let’s know.

Look and design
Like the old version, the design of the G Flex2 is also very unique and the credit goes to Karvi Style. During the review, we found that after seeing this phone, people were forced to reversed i.e. the handset worked to awaken. Especially the flamingo red color handset, which we got for review. By the way, the phone is also available in silver color. G Flex2 is more light, slim, compact compared to the old version, it can be used with the same hand. However, this does not mean that this phone is more favorable to operate one hand.

LG has used the self-healing coating (G Flex also had this feature) in the back of the phone, that is, after scratching the body, it heals on its own. Due to the slim texture of this coating, we lost the grip of this phone many times. LG claims that the self-healing feature works in just 10 seconds. If there is a scratch on the room temperature, it will recover in 10 seconds. This is much less than the 3 -minute rating of G Flex. We also looked at the back of the phone and it improved very soon, but the claim of 10 seconds is no less than an exaggeration.

Applying pressure on the rear side of the phone led to G Flex2 bend and returned to its original shape faster than the previous variants. Like LG G2, G3 and G Flex, the power button in the G Flex2 is also made in the middle of the volume control button in the rear side. The taxcher pattern of the volume button is quite different from the power button, due to which it becomes easier to identify them. Tectical feedback is also quite good. The primary camera is built on top of it. It is accompanied by dual LED flash and laser autofocus window.

The front part of the phone has a 700mm radius curve, while the rear side grip has a radius currency of 650mm. The G Flex 2 has a 5.5 -inch screen and the company has given an onscreen button to navigate in the operating system. The earpiece, LED indicator, front camera and ambient light sensor are built above the display.

Specifications and software
Powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 Octa-Core Processor has been used in the phone. It also supports four Arm Cortex-A53 core 1.5GHz and four Cortex-A57 core 2GHz. Adreno 430 GPU is also part of SOC. The G Flex2 model available in India comes with 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. According to the company, storage can be increased to 2 TB via microSD card. There is no need to be very excited about this feature, because only up to 128 GB microSD cards are available in the market.

The phone has many types of sensors, such as accelerometer, gyroscopes, proximity sensor and a compass. No support for 4G networks available on 2300mHz band is the biggest flaw of this phone. For this reason, most 4G networks in India cannot be accessed through this phone. In terms of connectivity, the phone has support for Wi-Fi A/B/G/N/AC, Bluetooth V4.1 with Aptx and Infrared LG. LG has used a 13 -megapixel rear camera. This optical image comes with stabilization. Support of laser autofocus and dual LED flash is also available for primary camera. After turning the phone, you will find that there is a 2.1 megapixel camera in the front of the phone. LG was compulsory to reduce the size and capacity of the battery due to the compact body. The G Flex 2 has a 3000mAh battery, while in the previous variants it was 3500mAh. The 5.5-inch P-ULED panel of the phone is 1080p. The latest handset screen is more crisp and vibrant than G Flex. The content gets a 3D look to some extent due to the screen curve. The experience of watching videos, reading long articles and playing games on curved screen is fantastic. This is the real advantage of having a curved screen. Viewing angles are also excellent and in the sun also there is less reflection on the phone.

G Flex 2 runs on Google’s Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system and LG has used its custom UI over it. Custom UI is very clean and its look is flat, but it is not like Android Lollipop in any way. LG has kept the unwanted blotware low, which is excellent. A software feature named Glance gives users the facility to view the status bar and recent notifications by swip down on the top of the screen even after the phone is locked. Knockcode (Customized Code to unlock the phone) and Knockon (tap twice to activate the screen), these features were already launched by LG in their phone, these handsets are also available.

Camera
Surprising everyone, LG has removed many features from the default camera app, now only three modes are available- Auto, Panorama and Dual. Through the dual mode app, both users can create a picture in image by using the camera once, but it is not innovative.

The 13 -megapixel camera captures photos with details and natural colors are enhanced. It focuses on the subject very fast. However, it is possible that some people do not see the pictures colorful according to their desire. We saw the barrel distortion around the agage, which was very disappointing. The HDR mode does the best job of protecting the image from over exposes in bright light.

In low light, the rear camera works well. We took some detail shots, but the camera failed to reduce the noise. OIS works to help. The OIS system is perfectly useful to protect the moving video from shooting. The quality of the 4K video we shot was excellent, but regrettably the camera clip limits the length 5 minutes. The quality of a selfie taken from the 2.1 -megapixel front camera was average. However, you can make your picture more beautiful through these built beauty mode.

Performance
In view of the controversies, we were excited about the Test of Snapdragon 810 SoC. We also found that there is a problem of heating in it. The phone gets hot while performing even a little bit difficult. Even while taking the photo, the upper part of the rear side of the phone becomes hot. In addition, simple tasks such as swiping notifications shade down during processor throtting are intermittently intermittently. There is no scope for such a deficiency in a flagship device.

We have benchmark scores for those who are interested, but do not just go to these figures to estimate the ability of G Flex 2. In the AnTuu and Quadrant Tests, the handset scored 49,882 and 29,223 respectively, which is fantastic. Losing the expectation, the phone scored a score of 17,358 in the 3DMark Ice Storm’s Basic Test.

G Flex2 very easily played our video test file. The quality of the voice on the loudspeaker was less visible. The earnerphs given with the phone makes a good sound and you will not need to replace it. Even during the phone call, the quality of the voice was very good and managed to maintain the phone connection in the Conjasted Network. In the battery test, the phone lasted for 8 hours and 6 minutes, which is less than the performance of G Flex. Perhaps, the company’s decision to use a small battery is wrong. Even during normal use, we found that the battery life was not very good.

Our decision
The effort of LG to create a curved smartphone for common users seems to fail, this time the reason is the performance of the processor. It is not that due to this deficiency, the phone will not get users, but knowing that the price of this phone is around Rs 50,000, such small deficiencies are more.

G Flex2 can be purchased for its uniqueness. Be practically seen, if you are ready to spend so much, then we will suggest that you also check the iPhone 6 or The Samsung Galaxy S6. We would suggest the second version of Galaxy S6 to buy Galaxy S6 Edge as it is a more stable product.

Motorola realizes that 4G network will be covered in India in the coming days. Therefore, the company has launched a 4G version of Moto E (Gen 2) in the budget smartphone segment. Moto E (Gen 2) 4G has more powerful SoC, which is integrated with 4G connectivity. The rest of the features are the same.

Moto E (Gen 2) 4G collision is from Lenovo A6000 Plus, Yu Yuphoria and Xiaomi Redmi 2, all these handsets have support to connect to LTE network. In this segment, how is the performance of this handset of Motorola, read further.

Look and design
This phone is similar to Moto E (Gen 2) and we just believe that it is the most beautiful looking smartphone in its price range. Metal has been used in the recently launched Yu Yuphoria build but the design of Moto E (Gen 2) 4G is very unique. The design and screen of the phone is similar to its 3G version.

Specifications and software
There is a lot of different in this category. Moto E (Gen 2) 4G has an Adreno 306 graphics with 1.2GHz Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC. This quad-core Snapdragon used in non-LTE variants is more than 200 powerful. Moto E (Gen 2) 4G has 1 GB of RAM. Its internal storage is 8 GB, which can be increased to 32 GB via microSD card. Apart from this, micro-USB port can also be used as USB-TG storage devices.

A SIM card of this dual SIM phone can be done to connect to the 4G network, including the 2300MHz band used in India. There are features like Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth Bluetooth 4.0 for connectivity. The phone has a 5 megapixel primary camera and a VGA camera in the front to take a selfie. The phone uses a 2390mAh battery.

Moto E (Gen 2) 4G almost Android runs on the vanilla version of 5.0.2 lollipop and gives the same feeling as Moto E (Gen 2), which is a good thing.

Performance and camera
Moto E (Gen 2) gives good performance, but Moto E (Gen 2) is 4G more fast and never stops. High-end games like ASPHALT 8 and Dead Trigger 2 also run without any interruption, although on low graphic settings.

The benchmark results were also much better. In the Antutu and GFXBench Tests, the phone got scores of 22,241 and 13,925 respectively. These figures are far better than the score of Yu Yuphoria and Lenovo A6000 Plus, although the QHD (540×960) display of Moto E (Gen 2) is less demanding than its competitions. In the 3DMark Ice Storm and GFXBench Test, Moto E (Gen 2) 4G scored 5,324 and 12.4fps respectively.

The phone did not have difficulty in running our sample video. There is enough sound from the speaker, but there was difficulty in using its earphones for a long time. We found that the sound quality was average during phone calls and calls many times. We do not expect this kind from Motorola’s smartphone. Apart from this, 4G connectivity was very irregular, maybe a bad network is behind it. In one case Moto E (Gen 2) 4G is much better than its rivals and its predecessor product, that is the battery life. In our video loop test, the phone battery lasted for 11 hours and 26 minutes.

The performance of the 5 megapixel camera of this handset is similar to the non-4G version. Overall, Motorola has not yet known how to make good cameras for cheap smartphones. The front camera is even worse.

Our decision
There is no doubt that Moto E (Gen 2) is much better than its predecessor phone in terms of 4G performance, as it is created keeping in mind the technology of the future. However, Lenovo A6000 Plus, Yu Yuphoria and Xiaomi Redmi 2 have 2 GB of RAM and these handsets also have a better camera. For this reason all these handsets give better value for money. But, Moto E (Gen 2) has no comparison of 4G software experience.

If any smartphone demands the most feature, then it is a good camera. Many times our readers demand that we suggest them a smartphone within a budget of Rs 20,000, which takes the best photo. Some phones equipped with sensors are available in the market, which work to take the best image in the delite, but most of them take bad photos in expected conditions in low light conditions. Oppo believes that he
The problem has been found through its latest midrange smartphone Oppo Mirror 3.

Oppo has given an 8-megapixel camera in Mirror 3 product, which is equipped with Backside-siluminated (BSI) Sony IMX179 Sensor. This sensor is known for the best performance in low light. On the other hand, the specifications of Oppo Mirror 3 are less than expected, given the price of low paper. We spent some time with this device to find out that the performance of the camera is so good that
This product should be purchased.

Look and design
While making a smartphone, we liked it to pay attention to Oppo’s exaggeration and small nuances about the design. Even though the design of Mirror 3 is not very different from any other Candeber phone, it looks more premium according to its price. The most important thing is that this smartphone is slightly small, knowing that we usually use 5 inches or bigger screen phones these days, this is a pleasant change. We were able to remove it from the pocket very easily and can also use it with one hand. The reality is that the back of the phone is slightly curved (curvy), due to which it becomes more convenient to hold it in the hands.

Oppo Mirror 3 is a compact phone. Its dimensions are 137.7×68.8×8.9mm and weight 130 grams. The body’s body is fully made of plastic, but it looks quite strong. However, cheap plastic has been used to make the power button on the right and volume rocker.

While pressing these buttons, we realized that it would break, the reason was a different click sound. The microphone for micro USB port and phone calls remain at the bottom of the phone. On the other hand, the top of the phone has a 3.5mm audio port. There is another microphone in the upper part that serves to record voice during video captains. There is also an infrared emitter.

Capacitive buttons are built at the bottom of the screen, through which you can navigate in the operating system. The earpiece, lightsenser and front camera are built above the screen. The rear look is texchard, but there is a gloss coating above it, due to which it looks smooth in touching. There is a metallic ring around the camera and flash. The back of the phone for the speaker has seven small holes made from the machine. There is a battery compartment, two micro SIM card slots and microSD card slots inside the rear cover.

Specification and software
Talking about the feature, we had told that there is no new specification in Oppo Mirror 3. The phone has a 1.2GHz Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC processor, with Adreno 306 Graphics Integrated. The phone has 1 GB RAM and 8 GB internal storage. You may see 8 GB less, but you can increase it up to 128 GB via microSD card. With this through Mirror 3 Micro USB port
USB can work as host. All these specifications are not so spectacular, because the rest of this smartphone is coming with Snapdragon 410 SoC processor and 2 GB RAM is a common feature these days.

The 8 -megapixel rear camera of Mirror 3 has an aperture, 5P lens and blue light sensor of f/2.0. A 5 megapixel front camera can be used to take selfies. Only one SIM card can be used to connect to 3G network. Talking about the rest of the connectivity option, the phone has an option infrared, Bluetooth Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi A/B/G/N. The phone has a 2,000mAh battery.

The resolution of the 4.7 -inch IPS LCD panel is 720×1280, while its pixel density (density) is 312ppi. Gorilla Glass 3 of Corning above the screen is 3 protection. The display of the phone is bright and the color saturation is also fine. The viewing angles and the screen directly do good work. Anyway, Oppo has rarely disappointed his phone display. But there is one thing, some people may say that this price
Compared to the second smartphone of the range, the display specifications of this phone are less than the average.

Oppo has used its Color OS 2.0 skin above Android 4.4.4 Kitkat. Not using Lollipop operating system is a huge drawback of Mirror 3. Color OS 2.0 is quite polished, clean and light, but it does not match Android from anywhere. Color OS 2.0 has been improved and some tricks have also been added, but they are not all exclusive with this product. For example, we status bar
In we can monitor the speed of our 3G connections. Gesture and motion tricks also worked well with this. Oppo has also given the option to users to make changes in the theme according to their desire.

Camera
The camera app has many types of features and modes are also present inside the app, which users can add and remove according to their preference. HDR, Panorama and expert mode are also present. However, this app has unique features like colorful night, double exposure and GIF. The color of photos taken in low light can be improved further through colorful night mode. Through double exposure you can take two photos and one to another
Can be subjected to above, it is used to give artistic effects. You can create a moving picture through GIF mode. Every detail was seen in the photographs taken in normal lights, along with it, it was not pixalated. However, overall tone was more warm than our desire.

You will need to use HDR to protect the photo from oversexpose. Tip: Unlike common perception, you get better pictures than strong sunlight.

In low light, the BSI sensor does its job well and we get many great shots. In these photos, the nose can be felt, but it is far better than the photo taken from the camera of another smartphone. In reality, the low light performance of the camera is equal to Huawei Honor 6 Plus and it is a huge achievement in itself.

The 5 megapixel front camera works excellent while taking selfies, there is no need to apply for beauty effects. The 1080p captivated video from the camera did not live up to expectations, especially because many areas were underxposed despite proper lights.

Performance
We have no complaints about performance, but Mirror 3 is not powerhouse at all. It plays the basic task well but as soon as an intensive task is given, it starts falling back. This deficiency was clearly visible while playing heavy graphics Asphalt 8 games.

In the AnTuu and GFXBench Tests, Mirror 3 scored 19,840 and 10,974 respectively, which is slightly less than the Test result of the second smartphone on SOC. In the graphics benchmark test 3DMark Ice Storm, the phone scored 5,236, while the phone gave 9.5FPS results in the GFXBench Test.

Mirror 3 had no problem in playing the video. There was no problem in running 40MBPS’s Hyvili Incode Sample Footage. The speaker of the phone is loud according to the need and the earphones coming with the phone are sufficient for common use. The quality of the voice is good during the phone call and we did not face the problem of call drop. The phone’s battery video loop lasted for 8 hours and 1 minute on the battery test, which
The phone with a 2,000mAh battery capacity was a bit surprising.

Our decision
Oppo Mirror 3 is priced at Rs 16,990, which is slightly higher than the value of the product. However, primary camera can take the best photos in low light and this specialty should be wooed by many buyers. You buy this phone only when you want to use a photo or you want to use the phone as infrared remote control for the rest of your electronic device.

Xiaomi has managed to create a special place for itself in the Indian smartphone market through flash cell. Especially the company was always aware by taking the price of its product. The company determined the price keeping in mind the budget phone. For this reason, the company has managed to sell mobile phones according to its desire and sales are not decreasing.

Naturally, other companies also want to imitate Xiaomi’s success. Good effort in this direction has been made by Micromax through its product YU and Lenovo, Xiaomi’s largest rival company in the Chinese market.

It is not that the company is becoming part of the flash cell for the first time through the Lenovo A6000 Plus. Earlier, the company had a lot of success in the flash cell of A6000 and A7000 models. Agressive pricing and excellent feature also contributed to this. Now the company has launched the Lenovo A6000 Plus model in the market for Rs 7,499, which is somewhat an upgraded version of A6000. It takes out the old demand but minor changes have been made to keep the product fresh.

Look and design
Lenovo A6000 Plus does not make any such special look so that it can see the difference from A6000 in it. Both phones are seen in the same way. We could not distinguish after placing both phones in the side. Needless to tell that the dimensions and weight of the A6000 Plus is similar to its previous version. Matte finish remains intact on the rear cover, we are happy with the ergonomics of this phone.

Talking about small nuances, nothing has changed. Volume rockers and power buttons are on the right side. Micro-USB port and 3.5mm socket tops. The front camera and the earpiece are above the screen, two speakers in the back side of the phone. The phone’s screen is 5 inches and its pixel density (density) is 294ppi. There is no change from A6000 in this case also.

Specifications and software
The 64-Bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC processor has been used in the Lenovo A6000 Plus. The main difference between Lenovo A6000 and A6000 Plus is about internal storage and RAM. The Plus model has 16 GB of internal storage and 2 GB RAM, while the A6000 models have storage 8 GB and RAM 1 GB. Through microSD, you can increase the phone’s storage up to 32 GB. This increase will appeal to customers who pay attention to value for money. This feature assures users to use Lenovo A6000 Plus for a long time.

All other specifications are like old models. The phone has an 8 -megapixel rear and a 2 -megapixel front camera. The phone has 4G connectivity. It has Bluetooth 4.0 and 2,300mAh lithium-polymer battery.

The Lenovo A6000 Plus has Android Kitkat 4.4.4 operating system, above which Vibe 2.0 has a user interface. There are still many features in this phone that use excess RAM and space. Apart from this, there are excess pre -printold apps. Some of these are worth using, but the rest only work to take screen space. However, they can be uninstall and disabled. So there is nothing to worry about. In the user interface, the lack of app drawer is clearly visible. It looks more cartoon representation and furious than our desire, but this problem can be found by downloading good launcher from Google Play Store.

Camera
The simple look of the camera app remains intact, along with all the settings are hidden in the same menu. It is very easy to switch between photos, videos and Panorama mode. Apart from this, there are very useful shortcuts for front camera, flash and HDR mode. Autofocus also works very fast and does the right thing to a great extent.

By the way, cameras with Lenovo A6000 model have been used in this phone. Mainly, delite shots have the main issues in oversexper and low light. The camera of this smartphone cannot be said to be bad, but it does not always take a good photo. The video is recorded in the 720p resolution. At the same time, in view of the budget smartphone range, a 2 -megapixel front camera works enough.

Performance
The increase in RAM ensured that in its price range it performs well with the rest of the phone. Apart from the fast function of the phone, more and more apps can be kept open at one time, this is better than the Lenovo A6000.

The results of the benchmark test of Lenovo A6000 Plus are slightly better than A6000. The phone scored 21,392 and 11,860 in Antutu and Quadrant Tests respectively. The results of the 3DMark and GFX Bench Tests are quite coincidental for the results of A6000, which are 5262 and 9.6FPS respectively. These results are not surprised because both devices have the same type of processor in which Adreno 306 Graphics is integrated. While playing heavy incoded videos, the phone faced the phone and there was a shortage in samples video with 40MBPS. By the way, the performance of the phone with regular videos was good and up to 720p videos were easily played. Dolby Tund Speakers are a great feature in this size phone and users who like to watch more movies work as a value edition for them.

Lenovo A6000 Plus is a 4G device and once when 4G network comes in the whole country, this smartphone will be very useful. At present, 3G service is available for most users in India. Given this, the 4G feature of A6000 Plus does not benefit any special benefit compared to other budget phones. Once again, the battery life of this phone is excellent. The Lenovo A6000 Plus gave 10 hours and 34 minutes performance on the video loop test, this is a bit better than the A6000.

Our decision
Lenovo A6000 was a great smartphone in many ways, but this time the Chinese company has launched a fantastic phone in the market as Lenovo A6000 Plus, defeating itself in terms of performance and value. The company has improved two specifications due to which the previous devices were questioned. Due to the increase in internal storage and RAM, it gives more value for money than the previous phone.

Sadly, the new device also has average camera and there is no protective glass on the screen. It would have been good, if Lenovo had also paid attention to both these problems, but still the A6000 Plus is a great device in this price. However, the company has sold this limited number of this product through e-commerce website flipkart. It is possible that because of this customers show more trends towards Honor, Xiaomi, Motorola and Asus. If you are successful in buying this smartphone through flash cell, then believe that you have spent money in a good way.

At one time, Blackberry, a company, considered the king of the smartphone segment, is trying to keep himself relevant to today’s date. The company is working on a new strategy for this. Earlier this company was mainly in the binjes to make handsets, now it is providing services for all the platforms. To a large extent, this strategy has also proved to be effective.

In terms of hardware, Blackberry has put its focus on business users and enterprise, and there is no idea of ​​investing in the price range segment of Rs 10,000. Every phone launched by the company is for a specific customer group. Blackberry Passport is for the top quality and customers expecting to look different in the crowd. Blackberry Classic Classic is for the capids of the keypad, and now Blackberry Leap is for touchscreen users who think that perhaps these devices are better than the current product. It is clear from the company’s strategy that Blackberry Leap is not for conscious customers about the price. Read the review of the phone.

Look and design
Blackberry Leap is an elegant phone, whose black front face is very sleek. You will not be able to see anything other than the company logo in the silver color in the lower part on the screen. The side and back of the phone have been given rubber finish, which works to give it a premium look. You cannot remove the backcover of the phone, so you cannot access the battery. We saw the same deficiency in the look, the label of 8 MP Auto Focus was very strange next to the rear camera. By the way, it is a very professional looking device.

The Blackberry Z3 and Leap models launched last year have many similarities. If you do not know much about both phones, then you will not be able to differentiate. The Leap model is a few millimeters more wide than the Z3 model and also a little weighty. However, there are some differences between the two phones, such as the power button in it is upwards. The slot of SIM and MicroSD card is on the left and the button of the volume control is on the right side. The 3.5mm audio is at the top of the jack phone and the micro USB port at the bottom.

Leap is available in dark gray and white color. The phone looks solid and reliable. However, it is very large to use by placing it in one hand. It seems that the company has used the same look again in some Asian markets, taking the positive feedback of Z3’s build quality and style seriously. The surprising thing is that Leap is not made by FoxConn, the company that makes the Z3.

Specifications and software
The Z3 was a budget segment phone, due to which there was a slight decrease in the specifications of this product which is not with Leap. The display of the phone has been tremendous improvement, the 5 -inch screen resolution is 720×1280. However, this is not a unique feature, but is far better than a screen with 540×960 resolution of Z3. Text seems quite crisp, colors do not put pressure on the eyes, the phone gives a fun experience. There are some shortcomings about the phone display in the sun. It is a matter of regret that Leap has only tried so much in terms of improvement from the old model.

It is a very shocking thing that where the technology has reached where he reached, but Blackberry still has a dual core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus processor. The company started the use of MSM8960 processor in the Z10 model 2 years ago. This strategy is wrong if the blackberry is to be composed to this price range in terms of performance.

The rest of the phone’s specifications are slightly modern, but not high-end at all. The phone has 2 GB of RAM. The handset has features like 16 GB internal storage, Sport for MicroSD cards up to 128 GB, Wi-Fi B/G/N and Bluetooth 4.0. Sadly, the Indian band of 2300MHz does not have support for LTE. Its battery capacity is 2800mAh. You get proximity sensor and a basic accelerometer. The features given by Blackberry do not impress you.

The company claims that its platform is in value software and services. After Apple, Blackberry is the second company that has its own hardware and operating system. The company hopes that people will trust Leap to complete their work. Blackberry OS 10.3.1 has many good tricks, you can use most Android apps and it has a central communication hub through which you can easily see many services messages. However, we are not at all satisfied that different gestures are the most natural way to use OS. On the other hand, the phone’s touch keyboard is the best ever.

Since the launch of the Z3 in terms of features, nothing has changed so far. However, a difference is that there is now a limit of 8 menu tiles in place of 4 app tiles on the first menu page. This has been possible by increasing this RAM.

Performance
Blackberry Leap saw some shortcomings during use for several days. Many times while launching the apps or switching the phone, the phone used to go into positive mode for a while. Some OS animations were taking too much time. However, there was no problem during the use of interfaces, hubs and other simple apps.

Based on Android benchmarks, everything cannot be told about the capacity of this phone. The phone scored 1284.8ms and 26889.7ms respectively in the cross-platform browser based Sunspider and Mozilla Kraken Tests. Alatra-Budget Android phones also see some similar figures. In the video loop test, the battery lasted for 7 hours and 19 minutes, which is a respector, but not a great at all. The performance of the phone’s battery was good. Call quality was also excellent.

The performance of the camera is sufficient, not very good. But it is effective for casual shots. Taxches come with beauty. Noys and compression are also less in the image. However, frames get messed up in extracting photos of the moving object. The photo was good with the camera at night. A 720p default video is shot through the camera, which is sharp but also a little shake.

Our decision
Talking about the price, Blackberry Leap is competing with a great Android device like OnePlus One. In case of half or less, many in the case of Android phone experience in the case of half or less. Composed by Blackberry platform can be a reason to buy this phone. The biggest difficult people of the company have to explain to the use of blackberry platforms.

The good thing for the company is that many people are committed and can be more in the coming days. The target audience of the phone is young, or professionals who are ready to invest for a hardcore business tool, but this smartphone is great for working. There is also a possibility that many corporations should buy this phone in large quantities for their employees in view of Secure Communications.

If Leap is considered as a rice phone and is used only in the workplace, then the blackberry will win. This is enough to sell the product of the company, thus Blackberry will remain relevant. By the way, we would like the company to be aggressive and invest on the mainstream pricing segment.

As the phones became smart, people found that it is more useful than just making phone calls. Today, many people use the phone to surfing on the Internet, chatting on Messenger apps, listening to songs, watching cinema and playing games. High-end hardware is no longer needed to support such function. Lenovo realizes that there is a large market for the affordable multimedia smartphone, and Lenovo A7000 has been launched keeping it in mind.

Big screen, powerful battery and powerful processor, A7000 have all the desires that should be in a smartphone. This phablet with a 5.5 -inch screen is a budget smartphone and besides it is the first phone in the world which has a Dolby ATMOS feature. Let’s know about A7000 and will it be able to compete with another phone in its price range.

Look and design
Looking at the Lenovo A7000, it seems that someone pulled the Lenovo A6000 from the edge and the new model appeared in the market. There are considerable similarities in the look of both models. A7000’s edge is rounded and its design is also quite useful. This phone with a thickness of 8mm weighs 140 grams. Probably A7000 with a 5.5 -inch screen is a great budget smartphone made keeping in mind your needs.

The entire phone is made of plastic but it does not look cheaper from anywhere. We found that this phone is sufficiently strong, that is, there will be less concern about rough use. There are volume rockers and power buttons on the right side of the phone. These buttons are made of metal and make good response. There is a 3.5mm audio port on the top edge of the phone and also a micro-USB port. The microphones are at the bottom. Capsitive buttons are under the screen, due to lack of backlit, they have trouble searching in the dark.

The earpiece, front camera and ambient light sensor are built above the screen. The primary camera and dual-LED flash with it remain on the top on the left side of the flash phone. The speaker is on the right side of the phone and while catching the phone it was out of our reach, so there is no possibility of blocking the voice. However, if the phone is placed on the strength of its back, the voice will definitely be slow. The rear cover is removable, below it is a battery, two micro-SIM card slots and a microSD card slot.

Specification and software
The A7000 uses 1.5GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6752M SoC processor, which is the entry level version of MT6752. This SOC has integrated Mali-T760MP2 graphics. Lenovo has shown generosity in the case of RAM, the phone has 2 GB of RAM but internal storage is only 8 GB. Storage can be increased to 32 GB via microSD card, besides the phone also has support for USB OTG. Actually, you can charge other devices through USB OTG feature, this is a very effective feature for emergency.

The A7000 has an 8 megapixel camera, with it dual-LED flash. The phone also has a 5 megapixel front camera. A SIM card can also be run on 4G networks and the same can be done on the 2300mHz Fricks Band used in India. For connectivity, the phone also supports Wi-Fi A/B/G/N and Bluetooth 4.0. The battery has a capacity of 2,900mAh.

The phone has a 5.5 -inch IPS LCD screen resolution of 720p, with a pixel density 267ppi. The screen has a protection of Asahi’s dragonteral glass. The discursion level of the display is not very much and it is also crisp in appearance. Brightness and viewing Engels are not so bad either.

The phone works on Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system with the Vibe UI 3.0 of Lenovo. This skin app does not use the drawer. It gives users a lot of customization option and is also a separate app for the theme that makes the process easier. Notification slider and multitasking card features are based on lollipop, just a change in it. Lenovo has added the option of Quick Settings. Apart from Lenovo’s Shareit and Syncit apps, more preloaded apps can be removed.

Performance and camera
A7000 is quite powerful and never saw it slowing while using. There was no problem in the use of multiple apps. The frames did not drop when the graphics based game Asphalt 8 was used.

The phone scored 30,159 and 14,714 in AnTuTu and Quadrant Benchmark Tests respectively. The phone scores on the graphics benchmarks tests such as 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme and GFXBench were 22fps and 5,990 points respectively. These figures show that A7000 is perfectly fit for gaming.

Although there was no problem in running all our samples videos on the phone, but we found that there was some strange problem in the sample with 40MBPS. The video with different resolution of the second format went well on the phone. We were very excited to use Dolby ATMOS on A7000, but regretted that this feature disappointed.

Dolby ATMOS on the phone is mainly an app, which can be used for sound handling according to the need. Whether it is to listen to music or watch a film. In fact, it looks like a softesticated equelizer app through which you can adjust the fruit level of the sound as per the need. We saw many content on the phone. During music, movies and gaming, regular stereo and Dolby ATMOS did not show any great difference that can be mentioned. The truth is that Dolby could not do its own lawstas demo on the phone. The sound at the maximum volume level was not very loud, whether it is about speakers or microphones. However, it is not so bad, the quality of the voice is quite good.

There was no problem during the phone. No call dropped and the quality of voice was also good. A6000’s battery life shocked us, then A7000 performed better than that. The 2900mAh battery of this phone lasted 10 hours and 58 minutes on the video loop test. It will last for about one and a half days during simple use, which is excellent.

The experience of using the A7000 camera app was fun for us. According to the budget phone, the 8 -megapixel camera of this device shoots rapidly but the pictures are average. The daylight samples taken by us were underxposed and some details were blurred. However, Colors were quite natural and did not have pixels throughout the resolution. The pictures taken in low light were of no use because these blurrs were seen due to lack of software. The best selfie can be taken from the front camera. Despite the autofocus function while making the video, the camera failed to maintain focus.

Our decision
Lenovo has adopted the right strategy according to the price range by keeping the price of A7000 at Rs 8,999. This phone is cheaper by Rs 1,000 from phones like Micromax’s Yu Yureka, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G, Huawei Honor 4X and Infocus M330, which is a profitable deal for this. Lenovo A7000 is a great phone for gaming and common use.

Unfortunately, the multimedia features that were emphasized during its launch do not live up to expectations. This does not mean that Lenovo does not perform on A7000 multimedia. It is not just as excellent, as was being propagated. Overall, A7000 is a great phone and the price is its biggest feature.

Within 9 months of launching its first mobile, Xiaomi has made a distinct identity in the Indian market. Through Xiaomi Mi 3, the company overtook the high end smartphone on Android platforms of companies like Samsung, Sony and HTC, with a fifty low price from these brands. Then the customers wooed the customers in the range of Rs 6000 ie a low budget through Xiaomi Redmi 1S.

This formula of Xiaomi got the mind to the Indian customer. Today, this brand is the fifth largest smartphone vendor in India and India is the largest foreign market for this company.

The company has priced its latest product Xiaomi Mi 4i at Rs 12,999. As far as the price is concerned, it is around the range of Mi 3. But does this smartphone have everything that will retain Xiaomi’s image in the market in the coming time. Let’s know.

Design and display
The unibody design of Xiaomi Mi 4i gives this smartphone a solid look. It is made of good quality polycarbonate which is rarely visible in this price range phone. At first glance, the Mi 4i looks like the iPhone 5C to a great extent, especially due to a multi color option. By the way, Mi 4i in appearance and feel is like many high-end Lumia devices.

In the coming time, Mi 4i will be available in many colors, but at the time of launch, this phone will be available in white color (16 GB). There can be disappointment in many customers about white color because it is more likely to get dirty in Indian environment.

Xiaomi Mi 4i has adopted staded format in terms of layouts of buttons and ports. The power button is on the right edge and the volume button just below. The 3.5mm audio is at the top of the jack phone and the micro USB port on the lower part. Noys are on the back of the canceling microphone phone. There is also a rear camera in this part with dual tone LED flash. The dual micro-SIM tray is on the left side of the phone.

The Mi 4i has a full HD screen of 5 inches (truly 4.95 in this), but it is not a feeling of getting too big. Either we have become accustomed to big smortphones or the display to body ratio of Mi 4i is so good that it does not look strange in the hands. The company claims that it has taken help from the corning brand for the screen and gives protection like the screen Gorilla Glass 3 in the smartphone.

Color reproduction and viewing angles are excellent. The display is so bright that the sunlight does not have trouble looking at text and on screen elements. Xiaomi has reported that Mi 4i has sunlight display.

Actually, the job of sunlight display is that whenever you are outdoor, it should work to brighten the blurred part of a photo so that you can see all the details well. By the way, the company is presenting this function a little exaggerating, you will not be able to detect the change on screen with open eyes. By the way, this is also a kind of praise. Xiaomi also says that the sunlight display has little effect on the phone’s battery.

After using the phone, it can definitely be said that the display of Xiaomi Mi 4i is the best in this range and perhaps it is also the most specialty of this product.

Software and performance
Android 5.0.2 in Xiaomi Mi 4i. The latest MIUI is 6 firmware. The problem is that MIUI uses too much RAM. The good thing is that Mi 4i has 2 GB of RAM, with half -less than half of the alpications. Through the most left button in the phone, you can see the resent apps and there is also information on the screen how much RAM is available for the app at that time. A button appears on the screen (‘X’) sign that allows you to close the apps. By the way, on Mi 4i, many apps do not face much problem in opening and closing immediately. In such a situation, you will not need (‘X’) and should also avoid its use.

We believe that memory management should be left on the operating system itself. Because closing the apps repeatedly without meaning can slow your phone to slow down, especially when you want to use that app again.

You can also lock the app icon and lock it by going to the REP View. That is, this app will not stop only when you use X button. And it will remain intact even after rebooting the action phone.

However, MIUI also has some shortcomings. Due to many animations, it takes longer to respond to the phone. To use the Settings app, you have to start with its home page again and again. That is, this app forgets the action and position of your previous visit. Some third-party apps are closed repeatedly on Xiaomi devices, there is also this deficiency in the phone of other brands. But this happened more on this phone than others.

There was a chance when the phone was unable to complete the data sand and receive action on the 3G network. There was no talk of restarting the phone twice. But this problem was cured after closing 3G data option for the third time and resuming it. On several more occasions, there was a problem in responding to the e-mail app on touch input. At first we felt that probably the deficiency was related to touchscreen, but after research found that the problem was coming only in the mail app which was very disappointing.

Xiaomi also informed about the visual IVR specification while launching the product. In fact, by studying the data of the users, the company will create a menu of the IVR number to be used in the use of companies like Railways, Vodafone and Cleartrip. Meaning next time you call in Indian Railways, the message of 1 for English and 2 for Hindi will already come on the screen. That is, you will not have to listen to the whole message to tell you your choice. You can just choose the option by tapping on the screen. We were waiting for this feature very keenly, but it is still in the testing stage which will come on Mi 4i and then other phones of Xiaomi through software updates in the coming time. Let us tell you that this is not an app, Xiaomi has not partnered with any company for this, but is preparing to provide you this facility through user behavior.

There was no shortage in the performance of the phone. In synthetic benchmarks, Mi 4i performed better than Mi 3 besides Mi 3, which was slightly shocking. While playing games and during the battery loop test, the smartphone was a bit hot, but the situation was not worrisome.

The Mi 4i has 16 GB of internal storage, of which 10.68 GB is available for applications and user data. The just disappointment is that this phone does not have a slot for micro SD card. By the way, there is talk of the 64 GB variant being launched soon, although no official information is available when it will happen. Support for USB OTG is available in Mi 4i, this means that any USB drive and other devices can be connected to the phone via Micro USB port.

Xiaomi claims that 6 Indian languages ​​support is available on MIUI. This is good news for customers using Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Bengali. By the way, we also saw the option of Marathi in the Settings menu.

We did not face any problem during the phone call from Xiaomi Mi 4i, the phone supports 4G on both SIM cards, although it could not be tested due to lack of 4G network in our area. The performance of loudspeakers was good, whether it was a call, watching the film or listening to the song.

Camera and battery life
Xiaomi Mi 4i has a 13 -megapixel rear camera that takes better photos in good light. Whereas in medium or low -light situation, the quality of the photo does not seem to have that power. Performance is good in HDR mode.

Dual-tone LED flash works well, gives lights in every area of ​​the subject while taking photos. The video shot by the rear camera is better than the average. However, the reduction in the case of color reproduction remains in this feature. In-Bilt Mike works well in audio recording.

The story of the front camera or selfie camera is also the same, when the light is good, the photo quality is excellent. But the results were poor in low lights on more occasions. Mi 4i has a beautification feature through which you can make your picture more beautiful. That is, there are pimples and there is a stain on the face, everyone will disappear through this app. If you believe in natural photos, then you can also turn off this feature.

Xiaomi Mi 4i has a 3000mAh battery and the company claims that it is designed for the use of at least one and a half days. However, on using the phone, we found that it went well one day, but till the next morning there was very little life left in the battery. This performance was received from simple to heavy use. Two e -mail accounts were active on the phone. During this, social media was also used for some time. 20 minute phone calling and a few minutes of gaming. The display was placed on auto brightness and the phone was connected to 3G data connections throughout the day. Apart from this, we also pair our phone from Mi Band via Bluetooth.

The battery results of Snapdragon 615 smartphones are poor. In view of this, Xiaomi has done a good job by giving a big battery and its performance results have to be considered good.

Our decision
Xiaomi has once again won through Mi 4i. The price of this phone is about half of the smartphone on the powerful platform like Snapdragon 615, but in terms of performance, Mi 4i gave good results in every department. In this price range, Mi 4i should get herpes for the best screen and good build quality.

On the other hand, there are some shortcomings in MIUI. The performance of the camera could have been better. If you look at the standard Android UI, expandable memory, and are ready to compromise with the camera, then trust Moto G (Gen 2). The rest register themselves for the next flash cell of Xiaomi Mi 4i.

In the mobile market, Microsoft is getting a tough competition from Android based smartphone. By the way, the Lumia model in the mid-range segment has managed to win the confidence of Microsoft Customers on the basis of attractive styling of the phone, good cameras and fine battery life.

Last year Nokia The 52x and 62x managed to reach the customers through the Lumia series. But in recent times, the budget phone on Android platform has completely changed the market. Especially Xiaomi. Will Microsoft Lumia 532 be able to make place for itself in the dual SIM phone market? Let’s know.

Design

Microsoft Lumia 532 Dual SIM phone will not be known to its beauty. It looks weighty and is not attractive at all. In reality, another phone of this ASHA series is seen. We got a black model to review, but this phone was not sleek from anywhere. This phone is also available in white, green and orange colors. Its weight is 136 grams.

This is a budget phone, so it is meaningless to have high expectations. The upper part of the phone has a 3.5mm headset socket and the micro-USB port at the bottom. Power and volume buttons are on the right side and a camera is made in the back, which has no flash. And there is a place for the speaker. There is a front camera in the front part of the phone, which is given a place above the screen. In the style of Nokia, this phone has a logo of Microsoft, with the name of the company with text. The battery is quite small to see. On removing the battery, you can clearly see the space for two micro SIM cards and a micro SD card.

Specifications
Looking at the Lumia 532 dual sim phone, it seemed as if it is a many year old model. Perhaps the reason for this is the screen of the phone. 4 inch display and 480×800 pixels resolution, these specifications only say a lot about the phone screen. The quality of the screen is also not good. Colors are seen to be faded, the phone has brightness, but there is difficulty in using it when going directly in the sun.

The phone uses Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor, which works four core of 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 and has Adreno 302 graphics integrated. The phone has 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage. Like other Lumia phones, you can also use memory cards up to 128 GB.

The phone has Wi-Fi B/G/N, Bluetooth 4.0 and A-GPS available. And it also has FM radio. The battery capacity is 1560 mAh, which is very disappointing. There is nothing to excite the camera as well. The rear camera is 5 megapixels and the front camera is 0.3 megapixels. With rear camera you can record videos in 480 pixels. You get a headset and charger with a handset.

Software
Microsoft Lumia 532 Dual SIM comes with an update of Windows Phone 8.1. In the new operating system, the size of Cortana tile on homescreen is more earlier compared, but it does not work on choosing India in the location. However, choosing US English becomes a matter. In the new phone, you also get some in-house apps of work such as here Maps and Here Drive+. By the way, Bing Maps App is also preloaded in the phone. Lumia Camera is a great app but due to weak camera, fun becomes gritty. In the same way, apps like Lumia Cinemagraph, Lumia Selfie, Lumia Storyller and Lumia Creative Studio will not prove to be very useful. Mixradio app is the most preferred for us, the app has the best library of songs and you can prepare a playlist according to your own. But the sad thing is that cheap premium subscriptions are no longer available.

You can ignore many apps like Bing’s Food & Drink, Health & Fitness, Money, News and Sport and can also be removed from the phone. Microsoft has given more importance to third-party apps. The phone had Blackberry Messenger, Facebook, Foodpanda, Gameloft Hub, Jabong, Paytm, Redbus, Star Sports, Truecaller and Twitter Preloaded. Some of these are useful and do not do anything other than eating. By the way, the most important thing is that now you get more apps on the platform of Windows phone than before. Especially the common apps that the customers had to be disappointed.

Performance
Due to weak hardware, this smartphone scored very few scores. The number of points that this phone got in Antu and WPBench Tests was also achieved by Nokia Lumia 630 dual SIM.

Many of our samples did not go on the video phone. Lumia 532, completely failed to play videos of 720 pixels. 480 pixels video files run, but through third party app. The voice in the speaker was loud but it was somewhat suppressed.

Despite being a fixed focus lens, the performance of the rear camera was not so bad. The photo taken in low light was good. It is clear that in terms of camera, Xiaomi is far better than Redmi 2 Lumia 532. However, the video was bad as expected and the front camera was of no use.

Its battery lasted for 9 hours 4 minutes in the video loop test, keeping in mind the size of the battery, this was a shocking result. It seems that Microsoft has made some changes in its software and hardware that costs the battery low and this is a good thing.

By the way, we had some problems in using this phone. On some occasions we found that the phone was automatically switched. And to turn it on, the battery had to be removed again and again. On not using the phone for some time, it was found that it started being updated by itself. This process took about 10 minutes, during which we could not use the phone.

Our decision
Microsoft in the budget segment cannot win just features and specifications. Therefore, the company has tried to further improve its hardware and Windows phone software experience. The company has also been successful to some extent, but there are many things in which Android is still far ahead. Lumia 532 Dual SIM does not have much benefits. If you believe in Value for Money, then show trust in Xiaomi Redmi 2 and Motorola Moto E (Gen 2).
