Onida is a well-known name in the Indian electronics market, and one that is highly associated with televisions. One of India's earliest home-grown manufacturers of TV sets, the company started its operations in the early 1980s in Mumbai and has now grown to become a respected name in home appliances alongside its traditional strength base in televisions and home entertainment.
The Onida i4G1 is the Indian television manufacturer's current flagship device, although it's strictly a budget offering. The device runs on a Snapdragon 410 SoC with 1GB RAM and 8GB of internal storage. The camera, display and software are decent, as is the battery life. However, poor build and design, unreliable performance, and a high price for what is being offered all bring the phone down. The i4G1 is a poor attempt from Onida that we find hard to recommend except for its battery life.
