Micromax A78 Review

Score: 37.1 / 100

Micromax A78 is a low level phone, packing a 3.5-inches touch-screen, a quite powerful CPU clocking at 650 megahertz, and 2 cameras, a 3 MP back side camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera. We will get a better understanding of this cellphone's features when we get into more details.

The Micromax A78 is only available in color brown. This phone is thin and comfortable, even though it's not close to being one of the thinnest phones currently available, with a thickness of 0.43". The Micromax A78 is 4.72 inches long, but it's only able to hold a smaller 3.5" display.

This cellphone is powered by a fast processing unit speeding at 650 megahertz.

This phone has a low quality 3.5 inches display with a x resolution, making images look less detailed. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This cellphone includes WiFi capability (and it can share it with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and fast 3G connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone supports dual sim cards so it can to work with two different carriers or phone lines in the same phone.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 3 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front camera. This cellphone also has flash.

The Micromax A78 uses a good 1300 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that provides this phone a poor battery life comparing with other similar phones. This cellphone has a reported 4 hs talk time and a 250 hs stand by time according to Micromax.

This device also comes with a few interesting features as Bluetooth (3.0) and GPS Geolocation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
