Karbonn A1 is a not very powerful cellphone, coming with a 3.2 mega-pixels back side camera and a small 2.8-inches touch-screen. Great! That's it? No, it's just the shortest summary.
The Karbonn A1 is quite thick compared to current cellphones, being as thick as 0.55 inches. This cellphone isn't a very compact phone, taking into consideration it is 4.2 inches long,but it only contains a 2.8 inches screen. It appears that Karbonn forgot about weight optimization in this 3.7 ounces cellphone. This phone is for sale in black color.
Karbonn packed this cellphone with a good 2.8" screen, and a 320 x 240 (QVGA) resolution, providing this phone with a nice graphic quality. This screen uses TFT capacitive technology, but it's not multi-touch.
This cellphone comes with a decent 4 GB internal storage, which is quite good considering that it also has a slot for an external memory card .
This cellphone counts with wi-fi capability (which it can provide to other devices as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G data connection, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Karbonn A1 works with a SIM card for GSM carriers.
The Karbonn A1 is only equipped with a 3.2 MP back-facing camera.
The Karbonn A1 counts with a 1100 mAh low capacity battery that can keep it running for some hours, although you will need to charge it even after moderate usage. This cellphone has an estimated 4.2 hours talk time and a 250 hs stand by time according to Karbonn.
The Karbonn A1 is not a very good choice considering it is priced 249 dollars, and many similar cellphones are sold for much less than that.
