We’re now seeing smartphones at the Rs. 5, 000 mark which we wouldn’t have imagined.
The lower prices go, the more potential first-time buyers will take a leap. Micromax has been pushing out low-end phones with specific tweaks that it thinks will cater to newbies.
Surprisingly for a Rs. 5, 000 phone, the Canvas spark Q380 looks and feels pretty good. It doesn’t seem cheap or poorly fabricated like low-cost devices used to. The front is plain, and only the camera and earpiece tell you which way is up - navigation buttons are on-screen rather than capacitive touch points below the display.
The phone is quite good for its price.
