Micromax Canvas HD A116 user review


[CERTIFIED USER REVIEW 1]

Overall OK OK
I purchased this phone a month ago, during SC 10% cash back offer, till date not found any issues with phone , overall decent phone in this price range. Body of phone can be made better, it looks very cheap quality plastic body similar to china made phone, so better to go with some decent flip cover.
Also, till date I had not received the cashback, so don't know how genuine are these offers which ******* made for Cashback. Bcoz of cashback only I purchased from ******* else I was getting same phone from on different site at somewhat 300 bucks lesser.

Worst service by micromax.Dnt even think of taking it
Service from micromax is really worst.U give ur mobile for service and u will get the mobile after a month and that too problem not rectified.Frankly speakning ,I bought the A116 from ******* now really suffering alot with display problem.I have given it to service center at ameerpet,Hyderabad 3 or 4 times.Today also my phone is at service center.When u submit ur phone they just ask u to "wait for our message to ur mobile number.when it comes collect it from our service."Out of ur curiosity if u ask for how many days it takes and for formalty they say u a week....but a minimum of 20 days will take....Just saying u one thing if a problem arrives ...for micromax..just throw it in dustbin...

From HTC Desire HD to Micromax Canvas HD
I ordered it from ******* by paying 13699 though it was available at 12999 on ebay. Item was delivered very quickly as expected.

Pros:
1. Amazing performance
2. Jellybean is a magic.
3. Very slim and good form factor.
4. Available in full black (front and back).
5. 2000 mAh is just sufficient to power the quad core processor and light up 5" display.

Cons:
1. Build quality is not up to the mark.
2. Screen color reproduction is not that great.
3. Display sometimes feels flickering (very rare).
4. I heard that Warranty and Service of Micromax is pathetic.

If you are looking for a android phone somewhere between 12k to 13k canvas HD is the phone.

Way better than i expected!
Firstly i bought this phone just as a temporary phone till i could find a better one. The price being about 13500 sounded like a good buy.
But after i received the phone i was pleasantly surprised, it looked and worked way better than i thought.

My experience after using the phone for about 2 months.

Pros:
1. Great looks
2. Light Weight
3. Super fast ( Quad core processor and 1gb ram)
4. Dual Sim
5. Good Battery Life ( Lasts 1 full day with 3g usage using one sim, have not tested the battery with two sims)
6. Expandable memory to 32gb ( I use a 16gb memory card with no lag at all)
7. Amazing HD display. Beats the likes of Galaxy grand hands down.
8. Good sound quality and loudness
9. Has a surprisingly good camera. Work a little on the settings and you can will be able to click great pictures and videos.

Cons :
1) 1 gb internal space for installing apps. You can find apps on the play store that move the app to the external memory card. But when you install an app or update an app it is first installed on the internal memory. So if you don't have enough space in the internal memory you will not be able to even update your apps.

This issue might be addressed in the latest android update.

2. The loud speaker during calls is very clear but it could have been slightly louder. Can't really count this as a negative because it could be to also prevent the speakers from getting spoiled.

3.No task manager. You have to individually kill apps. But you can get a task manager app.

All in all it is a brilliant phone. If you can manage with the storage issue then this phone is for you. I'm sure this should be taken care of in the next software update.
