Karbonn has launched its new budget Android smartphone Karbonn Smart A12 in India. The handset will compete against other Indian budget smartphone selling brands like Lava, Micromax and Spice. The handset is a good option for customers who want basic Android phone within 8000 INR. The handset has a 4.5 inch qHD LCD display with good pixel density of 245 ppi at budget price. The phone has 5 MP rear camera and VGA front camera for video calling. The phone has connectivity features like WiFi,Bluetooth and GPS.
The phone disappoints when it comes to camera, it can’t shoot HD videos, the GPU is not great but works fine with all apps but not games. The single core processor and 512 MB RAM will allow multi-tasking with some lag when there are too many tasks in background but ultimately it’s a budget smart phone. The phone scores in terms of display and battery life.
