Micromax Canvas L Review
(A108) Score: 48.4 / 100
Micromax Canvas L is a fair quality Android device, which counts with a high performance Quad-Core processing unit speeding at 1.3 gigahertz, a really big 5.5 inches multi-touch display, and 2 cameras, an 8 megapixels back side camera and a 2 mega-pixels front camera. But let's get into some more detail.
Micromax equipped the Micromax Canvas L with a high speed Quad-Core processing unit speeding at 1.3 gigahertz, bundled in the MediaTek MT6582M chip with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit low comparing with its impressive CPU. Graphic rendering generally eats a lot of processor time, so the Micromax Canvas L uses an additional ARM Mali-400 MP2 graphic processing unit running at 416 megahertz to help handle those graphic tasks.
This phone is for sale in 2 colors, blue and white. This phone is a very compact phone, taking into consideration it has a 5.5 inches screen and it is just 0" long.
The Micromax Canvas L has a good level 5.5" display with a 960 x 540 resolution, making everything look nice. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.
This phone features two cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front side camera. This phone can also film 1280x720 HD videos at 30 fps. This camera also counts with a few useful features: auto-focus, flash, face detection shooting, geo tagging and HDR mode.
This cellphone has wifi connection (which it can provide to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ (4G) data connection, which is not so fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and fast 3G data connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses two SIM cards to be able to to use 2 different phone lines or carriers at the same time.
This cellphone comes with an inmense 2350 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that provides this cellphone a good battery duration. Micromax reports a 8 hours talk time and a 210 hours stand by time for this phone.
This cellphone also includes a couple of useful features such as Bluetooth (4.0), GPS Localization and Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
This cellphone is priced about 249 dollars, which is very expensive for a device this level.
