The Cloud Flash is Intex's most recent entry in its 'Cloud' series of smartphones and it's just in time for the holiday rush. This Rs.10,000 smartphone boasts off having a protective glass back and of course 4G connectivity. However, the Intex has its work cut out for it as the Lenovo K3 Note (Review | Pictures) happens to reside in this segment too. The latter is one of our favourite phones of 2015 and was one of the most popular handsets on Flipkart this year. Let's see if the Cloud Flash has what it takes to pose as a better alternative.
The Intex Cloud Flash is the latest offering in the ‘Cloud’ series which boasts of Gorilla Glass 3 protection for the front and rear panels. The design is a bit too simplistic and is easily forgettable. It does have a vivid HD display however which manages punchy colours and good viewing angles. Camera and battery performance are average at best and could have been better. At Rs. 9,999, it’s hard to ignore the Lenovo K3 Note, which despite its age, continues to offer better value in this price segment.
