The time is turning good for those desirous of high-ending mobile phones at affordable cost. A small group of smart phone producers seems to have specialised in giving the market-leaders a run for their money. This is evidenced from the range of low-cost phones entering the market of late.
Karbonn’s latest entry, ‘Karbonn A30’ launched recently and priced at a rate below Rs 12,000.00 is a case in point. The model is bigger (5.9”screen), smarter (Android OS v4.0.4) and powerful (1 GHz dual core processor). With an 8-MP HD primary camera, dual SIM, expandable memory up to 32 GB and long lasting Marathon battery of 2500 mAh., the phone is a super-phone indeed. Its unwieldy size (166x91x10.7mm dimension) however gets this closer to a tablet of 6”, thereby making it a little bulky, and is considered to be a drawback.
