Micromax Canvas Entice Review

(A105) Score: 45.8 / 100

Micromax Canvas Entice is a decent quality cellphone, which features a big 5-inches screen, a very powerful Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1.2 gigahertz, and 2 cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 0.3 MP front camera. That's all? No, it's just the starting point of this extreme review.

Micromax decided to build this cellphone with a Broadcom BCM23550 system chip, backed up by a high speed Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1.2 gigahertz with only 512 MB RAM which is a bit disappointing for such a great device. To help with graphic intensive games and applications, the Micromax Canvas Entice also has a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU clocking at 250 MHz.

The Micromax Canvas Entice is available just in black color. This cellphone is just 0 inches long, but it is able to fit a a 5 inches screen.

This cellphone features two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front side camera. It is capable of shooting videos in 1280x720 (HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also counts with some nice characteristics like auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

This device has a good 5-inches display with a 800 x 480 resolution, providing this device with a nice image quality. This display uses CSTN capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This phone counts with wi-fi capability (and it can be provided to other devices around, acting as a router or modem), HSPA+ 4G internet connection, which is not so fast as LTE networks and 3G fast data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone has dual SIM to be able to to work with 2 different phone numbers or carriers at the same time.

This phone also features a few interesting characteristics as Bluetooth, GPS and FM Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Micromax Canvas Entice has a mid sized 1900 mAh battery providing the Micromax Canvas Entice with a below average battery life. According to Micromax, the Micromax Canvas Entice has an estimated 150 hours stand by time and a 5 hs talk time.

The Micromax Canvas Entice is not cheap at all considering it is offerred for 249 dollars, and other similar devices cost much less than that.
