Karbonn A12+ Review

Score: 46.7 / 100

Karbonn A12+ is a not so powerful Android phone, packed with a 4 inches display, a fast 1300 MHz Dual-Core CPU, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front camera. Great! That's it? No, it's just the starting point of a much deeper review.

Karbonn decided to build this phone with a good performance Dual-Core processing unit running at 1300 megahertz with 512 MB of RAM. This cellphone comes with an average 4 GB internal memory, which is adequate for the average user knowing that it also has an SD memory card expansion slot .

Whereas the Karbonn A12+ is very slim it's not close to being one of the thinnest devices currently available, with a thickness of 0.41". This phone is for sale in two colors, black and white. The Karbonn A12+ doesn't feel very lightweight comparing with today standards, with a weight of 4.73 ounces.

This phone has a nice 800 x 480 4" screen, giving this device a very nice image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This device offers WiFi capability (which can be provided to other devices around, acting as a router or modem) and fast 3G data connection, over HSPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone has dual sim so it's able to use two different phone numbers or carriers.

The Karbonn A12+ features two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera. The camera also has some nice characteristics: auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

The Karbonn A12+ has a 1400 mAh medium Li-Ion removable battery that provides this cellphone a not very long battery lifecompared to other cellphones.

This cellphone also features a handful of nice characteristics such as Bluetooth, GPS Geolocation and Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Karbonn A12+ is priced about $ 249, which is a very high price for this type of phone.
