              MANOJ, 11 Aug 2013I have been using this phone for 15 days and found it a med... moreHello Manoj, yes specwise canvas 4 is really amazing. Micromax has done it right with its 16GB internal memory. If somebody is a heavy gamer or planning to watch full HD(1080p) videos, then Quattro is definitely not the right choice. However, for all other uses Quattro is a really good phone. Regarding internet- right now very few service providers are supporting more than 7mbps. However, if you have a 3G SIM with more than 7mbps speed then yes, Canvas 4 would definitely give you better speed. I am not sure why you are getting so bad pictures from Quattro. I am getting really good photos from Quattro. However, in insufficient light if you dont use flash then you would get a bit grainy photos which is common in almost all smartphones. I have tested even S3/Note2 cameras and in low light you won't get very good photos. The problem with Micromax/Karbonn brands is that since they mosty import the items and rebrand, you won't get any software update if there is any issues with software. Nowadays even Samsung's quality is going down. As you can see in one of my earlier comment, on the first day after buying Quattro the phone was getting auto shut off very frequently. However, that got fixed after I did the online software update. If the same would have happended with Micromax/Karrbonn, I am sure I would have to run to a service centre immediately since generally they don't provide online software update. If there is any bug in software they usually don't fix and they just come up with another mobile with "updated features. If you are lucky you might get a bug free Micromax/Karbonn but if there is any software issue you would be stuck. Another experience I have is that generally Micromax/Karbonn mobiles give very poor battery life since they don't optimize the software properly. Looking at the specs of canvas4 since it has 2000mA for a 5 inch screen and a faster processor, I am sure your friend would be getting very poor battery life for canvas4. Quattro seem to be giving me a really good battery life. Qualcomm processors usually are optimized for low power and they give better battery life compared to Mediatek processors used by Micromax etc. I would provide detailed review later on on battery life of Quattro. Last but not the least, yes, the cost of Quattro should have been 15K instead of 17K, but I guess Samsung is going to reduce the price soon like they did for Galaxy core(already Flipkart has reduced the price of Quattro to Rs 15779). With a nice 4.7 inch screen and a good battery life and reasonably good performance(no lags on normal usage), Quattro is not a very bad phone in this price range, but it would have been ideal if Samsung had put 8MP camera instead of 5MP. However, if there are no software /hardware bugs then Micromax canvas4 seem to have amazing specs at less than 18K.

I tried a few 720p samples(6mbps and 3mpbs bit rate) and although it didn't play properly with in built video player/Mx player, it was playing properly with VLC media player beta (for android). So can you pls download VLC media player from Google play and try out your 720p videos? Howevr, 1080p videos won't play even with VLC. Max 720p is supported.

                  I have been using this phone for 15 days and found it a mediocre set, not worth forking out Rs. 17000. The 5 mp camera is extremely poor and gives unclear and grainy pictures. Net speed of 7.2 mbps is so pitiable. I feel to be cheated and I have committed a blunder by going for this. Samsung relies on its brand name(which is on the wane) and offers many such pieces of crap.
                  on the other hand My friend, Rakesh bought Micromax canvas 4 today on 11 Aug.I used his phone heavily for 30 minutes and found it fantastic.Net speed at HSDPA 42 MBPS was awesome(I am using samsung quattro with pathetic speed of 7.2)13mp camera is quite good.Display is nice and scrolling is great. the only thing i didn't like was its flip cover.(But we can dispense with it). Barring this con the phone is matchless. i will certainly recommend this phone to all of you.

                    AnonD-168666, 11 Aug 2013My bro got this phone 1 month ago......in this device u can... moreso u enjoy watching 720p videos on a tiny 2.44inch screen(its not 2.2)...good....now considering that price of bb 9320 is marginally less than quattro...it ain't have dual sim,only 512mb ram,only 3.15mp cam,no secondary cam, a low ppi(164),512mb internal memory, no wifi hotspot and no dlna...and most importantly no android (that too jelly bean os)...so i think you only watch 720p videos on ur phone and make calls and txts....good luck..

                                      jonty007, 08 Aug 2013hahaha...reliance customer care they have few points memori... moreYes, jonty. I understand your situation. So reliance customer service won't be of any help. What is the signal strength you are getting in your mobile? Go settings-> About device->status. There you would get the signal strength in dbm for SIM1 & SIM2. Anything better than (-70dbm) would give you good speed. If it is less than (-90dbm) you would start getting slow speed and around (-100) or -105dbm it would just work sometimes and won't work sometimes. Check the signal strength for SIM1 or SIM2 depending on in which Slot you have put your SIM. Do the same check after changing the mode to GSM and then see whether the signal strength is better. If you are getting poor signal strength only in WCDMA, then I think it would be mostly because reliance tower signal strength issue. Also, did you check with any of your friend who is using reliance SIM in your area?

                                        optimus, 08 Aug 2013will this phone get android 4.2.updatei think it will get 4.2 but not 4.3
