I read many bad reviews of these android one devices on flipkart and Amazon.in
mainly network connectivity
heating
bad battery life
hanging issues
app download issues over wifi from play store getting error 4xx
bad primary camera quality

I kind of feel like this comes when you compare it with more expensive devices but network issue is not something that one can overlook.

No problem regarding downloading app via WiFi, Network Connectivity, Camera Quality is also okish type. Infact it's comparable to that of sub 10k phone.

Regarding battery I also, though I can't comment much, but yet I don't have any complain. :p

Please use it heavily, like a child would and then post a review.

Its not his phone, its for his gf. Its on soft hands :D

Yeah, but I have airtel broadband at home so I use WiFi when at home. But she keeps Mobile Data always on (almost). And ofcourse, my call would hardly last 15mins. But her each call is of around 30mins - 1hr. So you can guess, the true use of battery :D

That's only battery life dude. Its supposed to go low if you talk long.
I'm more interested in teh other aspects of the device.

Btw how is the call volume and earpiece volume. These has been reported to be lower than standard.
I's hate a phone that is quiet at the earpiece. I should be able to hear things.

The ones you read on amazon are for the micromax version only. Spice one does not heat up too. I play Gt racing 2 and the phone barely gets warm. Dunno why n
Micromax one is plagued with issues.
