The phone is the successor to the popular Micromax A110. It improves on the screen and chipset.

This phone is more than what I expected. I though perhaps the ram would increase to 700 odd mb.. but not to a 1GB and addition two cores in processor. That's a very smooth step.

        The only fault I can find with this phone is that the capacitive buttons could rather have been placed as in stock android instead of interchanging them, a 1.3 MP front camera would have made it perfect. Very happy that finally they brought HD, 1 GB RAM. Currently I have a Galaxy Nexus purchased from "grey market". If Micromax acts proactively and increases the RAM to 2 GB for the next model then Samsung is really going to have a tough time in India. Thinking of buying this phone to use as a family phone.

                                I would pay another Rs.3000 if the processor was a dual-core S4 Pro and better updates from Micromax

                                    AQ, 21 Jan 2013Almost all Mediatek based cheap android phones lacks Digita... moreguys, people who don't who have never used micromax, should not talk about it...If you use the phone for 10 days, one will appreciate what micromax has made in such a good price (not cheap price)...cheap is something what samsung sells for twice price and slashed the price every 2 months to sell their product, that is cheating atleast micromax is not cheating, the consumers by reducing the price

                                      this phone is quit impressive....
                                      quadrant benchmark - 3609 which is higher than galaxy s2 (not much high if u consider other quad core phones, this is due to the chipset)
                                      nenamark2 - 40.6 fps higher than galaxy note1 (u wont be disappointed with gaming)
                                      THESE BENCHMARK IS BEFORE RELEASING TO THE MARKET U MIGHT SEE A BUMP UP IN IT AFTER IT RELEASES BUT NOT BY MUCH...
                                      being a phonen of Rs.15000 or 270$.
                                      u get 5 inch hd display and jelly bean update. great deal if u compare with other fone which are still stuck in ics
