Micromax, The Indian smartphone manufacturer, finally launched its flagship smartphone after a long time period. The brand seems a bit confident this time and priced the smartphone at Rs.24999. Yes! You read it right. Rs.24999 for a Micromax smartphone. Is it worth the price, Lets check out its specification overview.
The Micromax Dual 5 smartphone comes with a 5.5-inch Full-HD AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. It has an Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of Internal Storage. The main highlight of the smartphone is its dual rear camera setup. It has dual 13 MP camera equipped with Sony sensor, One with monochrome lens for capturing details and other with RGB lens. The secondary camera also offer background blur. It has f/1.8 aperture. It also have a 13 MP front facing camera with soft LED flash for better selfies in low light condition. It also have 4G LTE and VoLTE support. It has a fingerprint scanner on back and an IR blaster. It is equipped with 3200 mAh battery with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 support.
So, Looking at the specification excluding processor (Snapdragon 820/821 will be better choice) the smartphone looks promising, especially for the camera. But, it is still worth the price of Rs.24999? Hmm, Might not! Because we already know about the poor after sales service of Micromax. It is the main reason that the brand, which is best in the country at a time, now struggling in the market.
And, even after this, if you are still looking to buy the smartphone for Micromax efforts and the great camera. I have an another reason, why you should not buy it!
Well, you are thinking Micromax has done a lot of efforts to give finally a powerful smartphone after a long time, We should give them an another chance. But wait! Does Micromax deserve this opportunity. I think NO! The smartphone, Micromax launched today is a re-branded Qiku smartphone. Yes! It is a re-branded smartphone from Micromax. It is almost same as Qiku 360 Q5 smartphone with Micromax logo.
Qiku 360 Q5 has the same specification, as Micromax Dual 5 and even the same design. The only minor difference you will see, is in the software department, but the Big difference is the PRICE!
Qiku launched the smartphone in China for CNY 1999, which is approx Rs.18900. And Micromax Dual 5 is priced at Rs.24999. The difference is about Rs.6099. So Micromax wants you to give 6k extra for Qiku Q5 to get Micromax logo on it. Like seriously! There is no harm in re-branding smartphones, but at least maintain the price.
I am pretty sure now, that if you reading this you will not buy this smartphone and if you do. Please, do let me know in the comment section what encourages you to buy this smartphone, I will love to hear from you.
