LAVA Iris 401 Review
Score: 42.3 / 100
LAVA Iris 401 is a low end Android phone, counting with a fast 1300 megahertz Dual-Core processing unit, a 4-inches capacitive touch-screen, and 2 cameras, a 3 mega-pixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front facing camera.
Lava decided to power this phone with a good performance 1300 MHz Dual-Core CPU with as little as 256 MB RAM memory.
The LAVA Iris 401 is very slim and practical, but it's not close to being one of the thinnest cellphones you can find, with a thickness of 0.41". Lava made the LAVA Iris 401 in 3 colors, black, blue and red.
This device has two cameras, a 3 mega-pixels back camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera. It can also capture videos up to 1280x720 (HD). In addition, this cellphone's camera also features geo tagging and flash.
This phone has a very good 4 inches display with a 800 x 480 resolution, which makes everything look very good. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.
The LAVA Iris 401 has Wi-Fi connectivity (although it can't be provided to other devices around, as a mobile mobile hotspot) and 3G connection type, using EDGE technologies. The LAVA Iris 401 has dual sim so it is able to use 2 different phone lines or carriers.
This phone also includes a handful of cool characteristics such as Bluetooth (3.0), GPS Navigation and Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
This cellphone has a 1450 mAh medium sized replaceable battery providing this phone with a not very long battery life. This device has an aproximate 250 hours stand by time and a 9.7 hours talk time.
This cellphone is not cheap at all considering it is priced 249 dollars, and many similar cellphones cost a lot less than that.
