After the A116 Canvas HD, the Canvas 2 A110, Canvas Viva A72, and the Canvas A100, Micromax is introducing a fourth member to the Canvas family. Christened the A115 Canvas 3D, the device boasts of an autostereoscopic 3D display. The Canvas 3D is priced at Rs. 9,999 and will be available form the first week of May.

Just like the Canvas HD and the A110, the Canvas 3D has a 5-inch display. The A115 also houses a 1GHz dual-core processor, and runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The rear has a 5MP camera and the front has a 0.3MP camera for video calling. A 2000mAh battery powers the smartphone and Micromax claims that the device will last for up to 4.5 hours of talk time. The smartphone also supports Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi and expandable storage up to 32GB via a microSD card. The RAM and built in storage isn’t known.

Being a 3D smartphone, Micromax claims that users won’t need to wear 3D glasses to consume content on the smartphone. Users will have access to “Micromax 3D Space” giving them access to 3D videos and 3D games.

This isn’t the first time that we have seen a 3D smartphone. We have had the LG Optimus 3D and the HTC Evo 3D hit store shelves in India. The two smartphones were premium priced and boasted of glasses free 3D displays and dual rear cameras for clicking 3D images. Both the smartphones failed to catch any market attention. We have also seen some budget smartphones take a shot at 3D displays but all in vain.



How the 3D display of the Canvas 3D performs is something we will comment on once we have our hands on the smartphone. Up till now there is only one device that has given us an accurate picture of depth perception without the use of 3D glasses and that is the Nintendo 3DS. The hand held gaming console is the closest we have come to having a great glasses free 3D experience. On other devices, especially the previously launched 3D smartphones, the experience has been mostly gimmicky.

Micromax has been on roll launching budget devices in India and making a name for it self. Recently, Micromax claimed that it has sold over 1 million Canvas devices. But all hasn’t been well for the budget smartphone king. Recently Ericsson sued Micromax for infringing patents pertaining to 2G and 3G wireless technologies.

The Canvas HD, Canvas A116 and the Canvas Viva A72 have been successful budget smartphones in their respective price brackets. Will this winning streak continue with the Canvas 3D, or will the smartphone crash and burn? Stay tuned, as we will bring you the complete showdown when we get our hands on the Micromax A115 Canvas 3D.

i guess this is the 2nd or 3rd 3D phone from an indian manufacturer. time and time its been proved 3D is useless as there is hardly any content that use 3D yet manufacturer bring 3D mobiles. it works more in the kind of "create hype, sell a few thousand units, stop selling product".

True, can you tell it to the 90% of the Indians out there
If we say anyone that 3D in cellphones is useless, they will give a noob lecture to you

But why would anyone want a 3D IN Their mobile? 99% Of the 3D content Is useless, I seriously don't know whats the use of releasing almost every movie in 3D when it's useless.
Crappy move to attract noobs

3D mobiles =Almost no content = Pathetic.
Though Micromax is not targeting people like us here in TDF. It is for those who will go ga-ga on hearing they can view 3D in their moblies. Thus, mission successful.

Busy!!
if micromax can sell canvas viva with pathetic 110mb internal and 256mb ram then they can attract many eyeballs just creating hype with new technology

'your phone doesnt have 3D my micromax can play and shoot 3D videos' should be common in few weeks
