    Exclusive : Is This Micromax’s next flagship Android Smartphone : The Superfone A100 ?

    Looks like we sprung a leak! It appears that Micromax is working on a new Android device that seems to resemble the HTC One X in construction, its evident inspecting the design renders we got our hands on. The above image is of Micromax’s next supposed flagship device the Superfone A100.

    A close inspection of the design shows a slightly larger size and a centrally placed large camera lens (could this be the first 8 mp camera phone from Micromax?). The phone also appears to have dual sim slots and a micro SD card slot. Initial impressions put the phone as a slim power phone, but we really can’t judge based on factory drawings.

    Hopefully the product comes out soon, touting a 5 inch screen, a large camera,a  big battery and Jelly Bean for a low price say 14k-ish ( Hey one can hope right!). In reality, no real information for the phone is available, and all Micromax officials, including those known to us, refused to acknowledge the existence of such a product. Acting pricey eh Micromax? 

    We will keep you updated on more news as and when we can make it available.

    How To : Upgrade Micromax A85 to Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, Step by Step ( iGyaan Version)

    Happy March 2012 people, since we promised a stable workable rom for the A85/ cherry Magnum / K Touch k700 with Android 2.3 , we are here to deliver in time. 

    Before we begin with the update process there are a few things we would like to clear out few important things with you people.

    Important Notes 

    1. We do not take guarantee that this rom will work perfectly and could crash / damage / brick your device. So proceed with your own caution.


    2. This ROM has been cooked by iGyaan but is majorly based on the official Cherry Magnum 2x update (you will see once you flash your phone)
    3. We have added bug fixes and tweaks from the Micromax Android 2.2 rom and K-touch K700 Rom to this upgrade.

       

    4. Unfortunately during the update you will loose all data/ apps and most importantly gesture features from the Micromax 2.2 stock rom. So Please Backup Accordingly.

     

     

    Here are our finding with this rom.

    (Based on 3 test units)

  • Upcoming Micromax A78 SuperFone gossip may not impress the onlooker

    Upcoming Micromax A78 SuperFone gossip may not impress the onlooker

    Micromax is working on a A78 Superfone gossip, yet another phone in their Superfone lineup that may be ridiculed by the lot of power hungry buyers. The device however according to us may actually show some promise if Micromax works out the kinks.

    The phone features dual GSM sim slots, and will come with Android 2.3 out the box. It has a large enough 3.5 inch capacitive touch along with a QWERTY keyboard in the same candy bar format. Now here are the low key elements, it works on the same old processor you saw on the A75 and has a 3 MP and a 0.3 MP cameras but assumed to be fixed focus. Now the battery is also a sizable 1300 mAh one but does it justify the dual sim capabilities?. 

    Price is expected to be under the Rupees 10,000 mark , with the device available as early as next week.

  • Micromax Superfone Lite A75 Unboxing

    Micromax Superfone Lite A75 Unboxing

     

    A quick unboxing and hands on with the recently launched Micromax Superfone Lite A75.  The device is a first from Micromax in many ways, including first under 10k with 3.75 inch screen, first with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) and also the first Dual sim Android. Check out the video below.

  • Micromax SuperFone Lite A75 Hands On

    Micromax SuperFone Lite A75 Hands On

     

    We just got hold of a unit of the Micromax A75 SuperFone and we couldn’t wait to get our hands on with the device. Before i get down and dirty unboxing the unit, here are a bunch of sneak peak images for the A75.

    The build quality of the device is fairly surprising, its really well built. The overall form factor and shape feels really good in the hand and fits well. First impressions of he unit show that the display is bright and vivid and the screen is very responsive. The device does not show lag or slow down while moving from screen to screen or navigating the menus. The device comes preloaded with Android 2.3.4 and is supposedly good enough for Ice Cream Sandwich, But no official words on that. (We are still struggling with 2.3 on A70). The device is more expensive looking than it actually is. It also comes with unique UI enhancements done by Micromax that make the experience a little better. 

    Specs include a 650Mhz processor, a nice 3.75 inch 320×480 capacitive screen, Android 2.3.4, 10.9 mm thickness, 1300 mah battery, the standard Wifi b/g/n- Bluetooth 3.0. Not to forget the fact that this is a dual sim phone, both gsm+gsm.

    Most of Micromax’s new marketing and dev team is from HTC so you will start to see some Ui flavor(maybe its because i already know this fact). The device is an excellent add on the the Under 10k list and will definitely make the holiday list of the phones to get under 10k. Wait for the Unboxing video going up shortly followed by a full review.
