Good things about the phone: Size & looks:
-> Its a cool looking bar phone with a perfect size. Perfect size I would say because its neither too small to causes inconvenience in using it & nor too big to fit in your pockets. Its has a sleek design.
-> It has a SCRATCH RESISTANT glass. So scratched & spoiled touch pad is one less thing to worry about.
Sound clarity:
-> Put your headphones on & you won’t even miss a beat. Even if you hear without plugging your headphones the sound clarity is quite good.
Camera:
-> Camera quality is quite good for a 5 mega pixel camera. I am no expert on technical part but still 5 megapixel is a thing of a past, a better camera should have been offered for this price
-> Video recording is possible at 720p quality which is second best quality you can have right now. The best video quality is 1080p.
Long battery life:
The battery life of this phone is very impressive. I have to charge my phone only once in 2 days. 48 hours of battery life with my kind of usage is really impressive+ it has a battery saver mode with 3 options:
1.Always save battery.
2.Never save battery.
3.Save battery when its low.(it will activate when 20% battery left)
Bad things about the phone:
Limited free apps:
If you are an app lover than windows phone is not for you. There are very few GOOD free apps, most of the good apps are paid apps.
For example: On Android Angry birds is a free app but for windows it is a paid app whose price is Rs.55 & there are many more such apps & games which are free on some platform but are paid on windows.
No music arrangement functions:
There is no option to make a playlist, There is no option to add music in the favorite list.
There are default settings for song arrangement (albums, songs & artist) so It becomes tedious to find the desired songs one by one every time you want to here music.
Tricky to use:
Tricky to use in some areas.
1.To Install apps & game from the SD card, you need your phone internet (WiFi or data connection both will do) turned on otherwise It won’t detect apps on SD card.
2.The ringer volume option & music player volume option are interlinked. So if you are listening music on head phone at low volume. you will have to remember to increase the volume later otherwise your ringer volume will remain low & you will miss your calls.
