Just got it under 10k from my frnd shop.
Phone is nicely built and look good in hands. All basic features are working well with windows 8.1.
Camera quality is good.
for a window phone lover just go for it instead of buying other window phone.

Comprehensive review after a weeks usage by a techie! Verdict - Well worth its price!
Ruchir Sharma (Sep 26, 2019)

I got this phone for my dad, and after seeing it in use for a week, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by it. The build quality is excellent - the kind I would have expected from my usual HTCs. The glass in front, the metal-build on the sides and the tight faux-leather finish give it a very premium look and feel, much like the Samsung Note 2, and no exaggeration there! Call quality is good, cameras are decent both on the front and back (no HD video recording though - just a measly 854x480), and viewing angles are very good. In the outdoors, the screen isn't the best out there, but it does just fine! In short, it gives you almost all the features of the Moto G at 3k less!! (And yes, it doesn't have a gorilla glass screen, so be careful not to knock it around. As a consolation, I have several friends who've broken their gorilla glass screens on phone sizes 5'' or above. Not to mention that the optics of the best phones get damaged with any number of drops. So bottomline, regardless of any phone, don't drop it!)
As for Windows Phone 8.1, I find little to blame in it. Each OS has its short-comings - Android many more than others (something most people don't know or refuse to believe) with the viruses, the unnecessary access to personal data for all random apps, and constant lagging, even on the most powerful phones such as the S4 and the HTC One Max. WP is clean and quick. Much neater and the OS never hangs. And I find every single app of my choice available - Adobe Photoshop Express, Adobe Reader, Authenticator, Axis Bank, Cocktail Flow, Dictionary.com. Despicable Me : Minion Rush, Files, HDFC bank, HERE Drive+, HERE Maps, Hungry Shark Evolution, Indian Express, IndiGo, Mixology, Runtastic apps, Skype, State Bank Freedom, Sticky Notes HD., NYT Crossword, Truecaller, Viber, Whatsapp, Wikipedia, and many more. The app gap thing is mostly an over-exaggeration - Android will have almost a 1000 flashlight softwares to WP's say 50, so there is bound to be a difference in number, but most, if not all the useful apps are there. Won't find any trouble on that front.
The Snapdragon 200 does disappoint a bit - but then again, coupled with a 1 GB RAM, it pulls through just fine, and what else could one ask for a sub-10k phone! Multi-tasking is quick, and games such as Asphalt 8 : Airborne play without any lag, and at a smooth frame-rate!
Sanjay Kavade wrote in his review certain things which I wish to clear -
1. "According to official Microsoft web Windows 8.1 has folder creation on tiles but you can not create it in W121 though it is Windows 8.1." - That is a feature of WP 8.1 Update 1, which can be gotten for now through a Preview for Developers or will be released in the near future.
2. "You can't play ringtone while you setting it. You have to make a call to see what kind of ringtone you have set." - In the list of ringtones there is a play button in a circle on the left side on the screen, upon touching which you get a preview of the ringtone.
3. "Ringtone volume adjustment is not good. You can not have individual volume control for system volume, Alarm volume, massage volume, phone ring volume" - You have 2 different sets of volume controls - Ringer & Notifications, and Media & Apps.
4. "Internet Data toggle is not available on notification bar. you have always go to setting to turn it on and off." - That is true, although MS promised to remedy that in the upcoming updates. For the time being, one can download Cellular Data by Microsoft Corporation and pin that to the start screen to toggle phone data.
In all fairness, this is a brilliant phone! You may lack the Nokia/Microsoft Mobile apps but you get all the rest. Its a great device, and I recommend this to anyone who wishes to spend around 10k for a phone!
Great device, and servicing seems promising. No wonder Micromax is as of this financial quarter the leading smartphone seller in India, having overtaken even the giant Samsung!

A decent windows phone from Micromax
Subhrojyoti Mazumder (Sep 26, 2019)
on Flipkart
I am writing this review after 5 days of using the phone. If you go for the outlook, its awesome. Performance is quite good as compared to android mobiles. 1GB RAM is enough for performing all heavy applications. All the windows 8.1 features are running very well. Battery backup is not as good as 2000mAh has to be. It lasts for 7-8 hours. If you connect to the internet it will last for 4-5 hours with continuous usage. One thing that I should mention the network connectivity is superb and I never felt any network issues. Rear Camera quality is average and not like 8 MP. The front camera is so much disappointing since it cannot take clear pictures in low light, even you will feel very irritating if you go for video chat in artificial light. Display resolution is good to play all HD videos.
The huge drawback which is usually expected from Micromax is the average hardware. Speaker quality is so average and if you play audio over speaker it will make you a little disappointing. Though the build quality of the phone is quite good.
So if you expect a low budget windows phone, I would say this is the perfect one. Thank you for reading my review.

The title is my nickname to this phone as it has got(ze) everything you are looking for .
Let's once again thank flipkart as unlike previous times where the delivery used to be hassle free , this time it went into extra time but that's because W121 came all the way from Jaipur to Pune.
The phone is superb , here we have - HD screen , 8.1 OS , Leather backpanel , 8MP /2MP camera, and many more.
The sound clarity and the picture quality are too good. Touch is awesome.
Most important , i read reviews where people said that the battery backup was not good , so here's some help - Adjust the screen brightness to LOW , enable battery saver mode and switch off wi-fi and 3g when not in use and it will last a day .Also a big surprise , i was able to charge the phone from 5% to 95 % in just 1.5 hrs where other phones take 3 hrs.
You have the usual Microsoft Windows apps and also hindi is avaiable as a language option for navigation , although we might need another software to write messages in it i assume.
It is indeed light as compared to my earlier phones and plenty of color combinations to set the mood right.
Price is also tempting so all in all an excellent buy.

Marketing could be better
Rajesh (Sep 26, 2019)

There is nothing worst marketing than showing a pale contacts page on mobile screen. Why some 3D game screenshot was not displayed? Microsofts own Halo game could have been displayed. Few metro apps or lock screen with beautiful wallpaper screenshot would also added advantage.
Windows 8.1 capable of 2D games, 3D games, Office, Whats app, facebook etc. Those things could be highlighted. Fire the marketing people behind this!!
