Score: 45.5 / 100

This cellphone is quite a compact phone, taking into account that it features a 5" screen and it's just 5.77 inches long and 2.84 inches wide. This device is incredibly slim and good-looking, being just 0.34 inches thick. Lava is offering the LAVA Iris 500 in a lot of color variations, black, blue, red and white.

Lava ships this phone with a fast Dual-Core processor ticking at 1.3 GHz and 512 MB RAM memory.

This phone packs a medium 1800 mAh Li-Ion battery that can keep it running for many hours, although you will probably find yourself looking for a place to charge it even after moderate use.
