Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel Review

Score: 45.1 / 100

Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel is a decently made cellphone, packed with a medium sized 4.3" multi touch display, a great performance Dual-Core CPU ticking at 1000 MHz and an 8 MP back camera. Let's take a deeper view of what this phone offers to us.

This cellphone is powered by a good performance 1 gigahertz Dual-Core CPU, included in the MediaTek MT6577A chip and 512 MB RAM. Graphic rendering often consume a lot of CPU processing time, so this cellphone has an extra PowerVR SGX531 GPU clocking at 200 megahertz to unload the CPU. This cellphone has a 2 GB internal storage, a medium quantity that should be fine for the average user knowing that this phone also has an external SD slot .

Being just 0.39 inches thick,this cellphone is incredibly thin and stilized. This phone feels much lighter than what one would expect from a device this size. The Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel is available just in black color.

This phone has only an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera. It is also able to capture videos up to 1280x720 (HD). This phone also features flash.

This phone has a good level 4.3" display with a 800 x 480 resolution, which makes it hard to see the pixels composing the display. Its display uses AMOLED capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel provides wifi capability (although it can't be provided to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and fast 3G connectivity, supported by HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device uses 2 SIM cards so it is able to work with 2 different phone numbers or carriers in the same phone.

This cellphone counts with a 1600 mAh medium removable battery providing the Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel with a not very long battery life. According to Micromax, this cellphone has a reported 180 hours stand by time and a 5.5 hours talk time.

The Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel also comes with a few cool features such as Bluetooth, GPS Geolocation and Radio, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

The Micromax A90S Superfone Pixel is not a very good choice considering it is offerred for 249 dollars, and some similar phones are being sold much cheaper than that.
