simply awsum

wow this i a great phone it just rocks If you planning to buy a new Android smartphone based on quad core processor but have a tight budget you can consider Karbonn Titanium S5( Rs 11,990). If we compare Karbonn Titanium S5 AND MMX Canvas HD A116,only the canvas HD has better display. AS MMX canvas HD is not available in market we can go for Karbonn as it comes with same features as MMX canvas HD has. So Just go for Karbonn Titanium S5....!!!!!!!!

Just used to this phone from a friend. It's far better than others. Processor spead is really unmatched and Camera is also good. Karbonn should gift a case to the customers to attract them to purchase this phone. I am giving 5 starts to this phone.
