Micromax Canvas Pep Review

(Q371) Score: 48.5 / 100

Micromax Canvas Pep is a decent phone, including a 4.5" display, a 1300 megahertz Quad-Core processing unit, a 5 megapixels back side camera and a 0.3 MP front camera. Let's take a deeper view of what this phone can do.

This cellphone ships with a very powerful Quad-Core processing unit ticking at 1.3 GHz, packed into the MediaTek MT6582M chip with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little disappointing for such a powerful cellphone. Graphic calculations usually uses lots of CPU time, so the Micromax Canvas Pep has an extra 416 MHz ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. A nice point of this cellphone is its big 8 GB internal memory and an external memory slot, allowing the user to install a couple hundred games and applications without any problem.

Though the Micromax Canvas Pep just has 0 inches long, it is able to fit a a 4.5 inches screen. This device is for sale in color purple.

Micromax equipped this phone with a good level 4.5-inches display, and a 854 x 480 resolution, making everything look very good.

The Micromax Canvas Pep has two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 0.3 MP front-facing camera. The Micromax Canvas Pep also captures videos in 1280x720 (HD). To complete the camera, it also counts with auto-focus and flash.

The Micromax Canvas Pep offers wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with 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, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Micromax Canvas Pep has 2 SIM cards so it is able to use 2 different phone numbers and even different carriers.

This cellphone also includes some useful features as Bluetooth (4.0), GPS Localization and Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone comes with a 1700 mAh medium sized battery providing this phone with a poor battery duration. Micromax informs a 210 hs stand by time and a 6 hours talk time for this phone.

Micromax sells this phone for 249 dollars, which is a high price for this type of device.
