plus you cannot even put CM on it
the zenfone camera is actually better

I am not facing much issues after update but I am not a heavy user. I never play games.

Also, CM 11 is already available for it.

get lumia 530 for the camera etc its a big difference
even moto is decent though incase you cant get the lumia 530
just keep in mind that 530 lacks a proximity sensor but it has another workaround technology where it uses the touch screen as a proximity sensor and "simulates" it

but in reviews..they say both 530 and moto E camera are pretty bad...whats ur input guys ?

Arre yaar, you would be hard pressed to find a flawless phone in this range.
Redmi has good camera and specs, but not a regular brand name.
Moto e has good brand name and specs, but average camera.
Zenphone has decent name, specs, camera.

That is why I suggested you an android one devices seems like you need a branded one.You need to wait if HTC,Samsung is going to release android one devices there is very slim chance though.

Even though they release it at all, it'll have SD200, 480p 5" screen without gorilla glass, 1gb ram, 4gb internal, 5mp cam and priced at 18-20k. :lol:

Snapdragon 200 is not a very bad chip it can easily play full HD videos.That is why i suggest OP to get android one device.

dont go for either,quality is a joke with karbonn and spice
wait for better oems to release android handsets or get the moto e or zenfone instead
the current android ones are not that great

its not about the SoC, its about the pricing. when Moto G offers sd400 at 12-13k, likes of samdung would offer a sd200 or even a broadcomm SoC at 15k prices (like this $hit Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo - Full phone specifications) . :facepalm:

moto e is your best bet
dont buy these chinese and indian oem phones especially at that price range
moto e is better in build etc and gives good performance and has good after sales
android one phones are not ood because of karbonn,spice and micromax which have bad service after sales and the mediatek cpus arent good

the moto e suits your needs perfectly
zenfone is an alternative worth considering as well

^^plus the oem also matters
android one phones wont be a big hit because of 1. OEMs who are known for poor quality
2.Mediatek CPUs(incompatible and slow compared to snapdragon,atleast in the low range cpus)
