Looks like Xolo is finally stepping up their game and if this is price under 20k then it will be a steal for sure.

by the time Play gets launched, Android 4.3 will be out. These mobiles ship with stock Android, should ship with upto date OS (at least 4.2) out of box.

Too much to expect from Xolo.

I like XOLO better than micromax.
Especially the BSI camera.

 

[kartikoli]

its a single sim and now a days dual sim is a necessity

 

[Gollum]

not for all. There are people who still prefer having one sim.
I'm not one of them though

And here is XOLO spamming with the market with "Good Specs" Phones but with slightly old android

But I've not seen any Nvidia Tegra 3 based phones running 4.2 till date.

Is it so hard to include 2gb of ram ? Ram is probably the cheapest component of a smartphone so why not stuff it as much as possible ?

 

[omega44-xt]

At 167g, its a bit heavy phone(140g would have been better). Now this is a good spec phone at good price (Android 4.2 would have been icing on the cake). Now there is a competitor for Xperia L in terms of performance

Hey Flipkart is again showing wrong specs.......... This phone is shown as dual SIM ???

 

[randomuser111]

CPU performance would match/surpass L but GPU is significantly worse

Kudos to Xolo for trying something new and original (in Indian market). Unlike MMX which is ripping off Samsung quite overtly.

There haven't been many Tegra 3 devices (off the top of my head, I can name LG Optimus X4, Nexus 7 and HTC One X).

 

[RohanM]

^^ Kudos to both MMX & XOLO
MMX = for shiting on samshit like hell
XOLO = as u said ...

 

[Gollum]

moreover XOLO only makes smartphones.

 

[Extreme Gamer]

I would be interested in seeing what the quality of the display is.

Given how prices tend to be lower than the competition for "similar" specs, I have a feeling the display will probably be on the lower end, not quite the same as those found on the HTC One. Maybe the panel will not even be manufactured by Samsung/Sony/LG.

But I hope I'm wrong and that they do provide an awesome panel.

Till date XOLO phone does offer better display that other phones in the same price range. XOLO Q1000 does have a better display than Canvas HD. I have seen it by placing both of the phones in my two hands and if you check some reviews, they also have said the same thing.

Since this is based on Tegra 3 like HTC One X and Nexus 7 this has high chances of getting CM and thus becoming the first Indian brand phone to do so.
