Very good buy. Happy with it...

Rajat Rajput (Nov 1, 2014) on Flipkart

Pros: 1. Very good display quality (9 out of 10). Brightness awesome. Contrast ratio are also good (not the best). Colour reproduction perfect. 2. Build quality is one of the best. Aluminium build feels awesome in hands. 3. Weight and size of the device makes it absolutely fun to use. 4. Battery life is unmatched. Best feature of this device. It's been 2 day with average usage and it still have 60% battery left. 5. Software: although I'm not a fan of custom build of android from device manufacturers, and build which came with the device "4.2.2 - emui 2.2" was laggy, but after manual update to "4.4.2 - emui 2.3", I started to feel good about with emui. There are several helpful utilities. and also emui 3.0 in itself is awesome. so device is going to be more awesome with time. 6. Camera quality OK. Outdoor photos come very crisp, indoor pics are average though. Cons: 1. Volume and power buttons placement should have been moved to at-least 1 inch above. these are susceptible to accidental press. Not a major issue though.

Excellent Phablet

Dipak Ranawat (Oct 1, 2014) on Flipkart

Well, I will be updating this review after a month, but for now, I think it is a great phone.. tablet.. Sorry.. Phablet! When some people say that 7" tabs are available for 10k or so, they do not realize that they are dual cores with 1GB RAM. What I really wanted is the minimum spec of 1.5+ Quad Core Processor + 16GB Storage + 2GB RAM + 8MP Camera. When you search with these filters, you will only find good phones with small screens or Nexus 7 costing 27000. Why I think this is better is because it is 7" yet it is way too sleek and easy to handle than a Nexus 7. The bezels are almost negligible making it look really nice. I personally do not like the way Nexus 7 looks. The battery gave me 2.5 days with Wifi ON at all times. That is really a huge battery I must say. As of now, I think this is a perfect device for those who want a big screen. If not, go for Huawei Honor 6. That is a good phone too.

Excellent Tablet and worth for 20K

Pavan (Nov 1, 2014) on Flipkart

Tremendous built in piece with bright and awesome display...5 stars to the speed, battery, camera and power. Really loving it. HonorX1 is far better than Tab3, Tab4 and other players. As usual, Flipkart service is the best and cheers.
