Micromax A25 Smarty Review

Score: 39.5 / 100

Micromax A25 Smarty is a not very powerful Android device, with a good performance processing unit clocking at 1000 megahertz, a compact 2.8 inches display and a 1.3 MP back side camera. Great! That's it? No, it's just the shortest summary in history.

This cellphone comes with a MediaTek MT6515 chip, holding a great performance processor running at 1000 megahertz and just 256 MB of RAM memory. To help with graphic rendering, this cellphone also uses a 200 megahertz PowerVR SGX531 graphics processing unit. This phone comes with a 122,88 MB internal storage memory, a small amount that could be enough for some basic users considering it also has an SD extension slot to store songs, pictures and videos and even some apps and games that allow external memory installation.

This phone is only available in black color. This device is a bit heavy comparing with today standards, weighting 3.6 ounces. Whereas this cellphone has 4.11" long, it only holds a way smaller 2.8" display. This cellphone is a bit thick compared to nowadays cellphones, with a thickness of 0.51 inches.

The Micromax A25 Smarty includes a good 320 x 240 (QVGA) 2.8-inches screen, providing this cellphone with a good graphic quality. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This cellphone provides WiFi connectivity (but it can't be shared with other devices as a mobile mobile hotspot) and 3G connection type, using EDGE technologies. The Micromax A25 Smarty has 2 SIM cards so it's able to work with 2 different carriers or phone lines in the same device.

This cellphone is only equipped with a 1.3 mega-pixels back camera.

This phone has a medium capacity 1280 mAh replaceable battery, which is not really enough for a demanding cellphone like this. Micromax claims this cellphone has a 180 hs stand by time and a 4 hs talk time.

This cellphone also includes some useful features as Bluetooth (enables communication with other devices, computers and accessories) and FM Radio, and Accelerometer.

Micromax sells this device for $ 249, which is expensive for comparing with other similar devices.
