Lets get this out of the way: yes, I know not everybody has a fortune to spend of phones, but come on people, this phone will be terrible at pretty much everything. Lots of compromises, the chipset + ram combo is nightmare-inducing.
Ever used the Galaxy Pocket Neo? Even that piece of garbage has 512 of RAM and it completely sucks. A crappy higher clocked dualcore chip wont make a differente in performace because it'll be too bussy killing background apps in a hopeless attempt to make room for foreground ones.
And then come the build quality and dirability issues....

256mb ram runs on 4.2 JB just fine, if You want call or write sms or play simple game. There are tens of phones like these, with 6572 chip, 4.2 JB and 256mb.
Just watch on youtube for example cubot gt72.

mac, 13 Jun 2014Yes it is possible when you turn on a swap file/partition o... moreZram is what they did with KitKat. That is why KK requires no less than 340MB of RAM. But these optimizations lack in ICS/JB which need a minimum of 512MB to function at all and why LG put Gingerbread 2.3.6 on 2012's L3 with 384MB RAM, instead of ICS, like it did with the rest of 2012 models: L5, L7 and L9. Every single ICS+ phone, even the cheapest ones, has 512MB RAM or more.
Now, either Karbonn has a fantastic team of coders which redid the majority of Android 4.2 code to make a phone with 256MB RAM usable by customers, or there's a problem with mentioned specs.
And swapping is virtually impossible with 512 MB of SD card space (perhaps there's a hidden partiton for SWAP, but all in all, that's a very stupid solution).

What can one possible do with a 256mb RAM device ? Text and place calls ? Seems more like it

India has been selling,low end affordable JB and ICS with 256MB RAM and Dual Core for a while now. Micromax was the first to break it, with there Micromax A58 which has a 512MB RAM and costs around Rs. 3500. But, still at that price this phone is interesting. It has a bigger drawback than just 256MB ram i.e it comes with 1100Mah battery.
I would have loved, firefox os instead of JB in this device.

I doubt those 256MB of RAM can handle Android 4.2.2. It would be better if it ran 4.4.2 because KitKat has a better RAM management. But still think Ice Cream Sandwich would be the best bet on this device!
