Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 Smart Lens Review
As the race to improve smartphone optics flares up, we’ve also seen a variety of interesting offshoots. These range from cameras with built in Android case in point being the Galaxy Camera, Nikon S800C or phones with a more full featured captured module. The Galaxy S4 Zoom and the Nokia 808, 1020 would fall in this category. The problem however is the size and thickness tradeoff being made here.
Sony is trying to change things up a bit by introducing a brand new category of products into the mix. The QX10 and QX100 are Sony’s attempts at letting you have a point and shoot camera that works with your phone and fits in your palm but isn’t permanently attached to the back of your phone. If that sounds weird, you’re right. But we decided keep our reservations about the product aside and give it a proper spin. Read on to find out what we think about the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 smart lens. Continue reading “Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 Smart Lens Review”
Xolo Q1000S Review
Xolo had launched several smartphones in the Q CORE series, the Q1000S is the company’s latest smartphone in the series. It is also the successor of the Q1000 that was launched back in May. The Q1000S that was launched at the end of August at a price tag of Rs. 18,999 has the same 5-inch display, but this has an upgraded 1.5 GHz quad-core MediaTek 6489 Turbo processor, a 13MP rear camera and a 5MP front-facing camera. Can this compete with other similar range smartphone in the market ? Let’s find out in the review. Continue reading “Xolo Q1000S Review”
Oppo R819 Review
Oppo, a relatively new player in the Smartphone world, had already impressed us with the beautifully made Find 5, its current flagship device. But as any company that looks to expand its portfolio, Oppo has sought to address the mid-range market, which brings volume as well as the ability to reach more people. The R819 is a step in that direction. Armed with a 4.7 inch 720p display, a super thin 7.3mm profile and an 8 megapixel camera, the device is a decent cut-down in specifications when compared to the Find 5, literally in every sense, including thickness and weight. Oppo is now getting into the very similar yet extremely crowded mid-range category, but does the R819 impress enough to stand out? Read on for our fully detailed review below.
Note: Check out the 360 degree view of the Oppo R819 before proceeding towards the full review!
Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 Review
So far all the flagship smartphones had a 5-inch starting from the Micromax Canvas A100. Even the Micromax Canvas 4 that we reviewed recently had a 5-inch HD display. Micromax launched the Canvas Doodle 2 A240 recently with a 5.7-inch HD display at a price tag of Rs. 19,990. We reviewed the first A111 Canvas Doodle last month, which was launched back in May. Even though the Doodle comes under the Canvas series, it was not the company’s flagship phone. The Canvas Doodle 2 costs twice as much as the first Doodle. You can check the 360° view of the phone, to check how the phone looks. Is the phone worth the price ? Let’s dive into the review to find it out. Continue reading “Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 Review”

Nokia Lumia 925 Review
The Nokia Lumia 925 was launched in London a few months back, as the company’s answer to all the issues related to the Lumia 920. Concerns of bulk, thickness and similar looking design were addressed, with the Lumia 925 sporting a new Aluminium based design, a thinner and lighter build, bringing along some needed changes. The Lumia 920 was already a well rounded flagship smartphone, and with Nokia supposedly fixing all of its issues in the 925, does it make it the best Windows Phone currently available in the market? Our detailed review might help answering that question, read on.

iBall Andi 4.7G Cobalt Review
iBall has launched a lot of Android smartphones in India for a while now and it is yet to make the mark that others like Micromax or Karbonn have been able to make. Things could change very soon for Mumbai based iBall with the launch of their recent iBall Andi 4.7G Cobalt.
The iBall Andi 4.7G Cobalt has the right mixture of specifications and pricing to make it a successful, but only if people knew of its existence. It is a typical mid-range phablet that has the specifications and pricing resembling other devices, but is different in its own way. It was launched at a hefty price tag of Rs. 19,995, but now it is available for around Rs. 15,500 in the market. Continue reading “iBall Andi 4.7G Cobalt Review”
