        Great micromax. Samsung cheats indian people with its brand name. Samsung handset may be good after 30k mark. But 10-15k segment samsung cannot touch micromax or other local brands. And there is nothing great in samsung and hangs lot. And micromax offers VFM products than samsung. And was cheating with amoled display. And now micromax canvas hue and micromax canvas 4+ offers amoled display in less price.Micromax keep rocking...

              well, yu yureka is heading for a great start.
              samsung can come up, but don't know whether they will do it; micromax, lenovo and xiaomi releases samsung's 15-18k spec'ed mobiles for 6-8k.

                As per my experience with micromax there's products are worthless, even I can say garbage, Samsung is miles ahead and better than this so called maicromax stupid company,horrible after sales service, I through my Micromax Cube in dustbin, waited for 6 months for battery which have never been gotten, better go with Samsung HTC Nokia,

                    Who cares about your flagship devices, india has the 3rd largest smartphone market in the world, if that doesnt tell you anything then whats the point of making flagship devices if they #NOT gonna sell. i rest my case...

                      See first of all not every person of our country, India will buy a s5 or n4, the majority is mid-range smartphone at a good price which Samsung never gives, a3 which has a sd 410 processor costs about 21k₹ while we can get yu which has sd615 at 9k₹, so tell me why would we consider on buying such overpriced phones?

                          This is due to partiality showing towards INDIA

                            Well who cares if anyone brought Micromax outside of India or not? We are talking about India not the whole world .

                              It's because of cheap android phones. If you talk about flagships. None of the Indian manufacturers have anything as good as Galaxy S5 or Note 4.

                                No body really buys Any of the Indian Brand Mobiles(up to my knowledge). And for the Record I have not come across a single person who has bought a Micromax!

                                  I thought Moto G and E that hit the low/mid range samsung devices most

                                    That's imprrssive considering Micromax is just a local brand, here in Malaysia, Ninetology or any other local manufacturer in Malaysia couldn't keep up most of any fairly known companies.
