User Reviews for Spice Coolpad MI-515

I have been using this mobile from the last 3 days. It is slim, handy and touch response is good. As the mobile phone technology is growing day by day, once we buy a phone, immediately we will see the higher version of it within a month or two. But I feel mobile with 1 GB RAM, and 1.2 GHz Quad core processor is sufficient even for next two years. Some of the technical details of the mobile arenn1. CPU is 1.2 GHz Quad core Mediatek MT6589 ARMv7 processornn2. GPU is PowerVR SGX 544MPnn3. Pixel density is 240 with 56 fps.nn4. Quadrant benchmark score is 3589 and Antutu benchmark score is 12067.nn5. It is having the facility to install the apps either in phone storage or in external sd card.nn6. Our of 4 GB phone memory, only 750 MB is available for app storage and 1.7 GB free n for other storage. Out of 1 GB RAM, 650 MB of RAM is free which is more than n sufficient to run any high end game.nn7. Incoming call volume is good. Speaker volume is little less.nn8. It can play and record HD videos.nn9. The only drawback of this phone is its battery. Battery drains quickly if you use wifi, n videos and games. I have observed that a continuous use of wifi for internet, battery n can last not more than 4 hours. If you use mobile only for calling, battery lasts more n than two days.nn Finally I can conclude that this is a very good mobile with all these features especially the two criteria which I mentioned in the beginning. Since with these two features you can run any game or video or internet without any lag.

the most satisfactory phone as per configurations and budget wise, i could not find the phone in local store so i have ordered today...let's hope there's no disappointment ;)nthe quad core processor with 1gb ram makes it cool enough to go for it under 10k.. dont know bout services thoughnedit: been playing with it for one daynthe pros : n1. built : i never expected to get such a solid built at this price range.. much better compared to 10k samsung htc and mmx phones.n2. display: clear enoughn3. touch response : feels like htc onen4. performance : excellentn5. cool apps preinstallednnthe cons:nweak battery : just like my old lumia 510.. drains quickly if playing full time wit itnscratch guard that comes with it detached in one daynheating : but not Much..less than htc phonesnsound : hahaha pathetic! i miss my old nokia xpress music.ncamera: for namesake..but at this price ok

This is my third spice phone model in last 1 year. I did not want to spend too much on a mobile as I keep changing phones. After use of 15 days my review;nProsn1) Sensible pricing for a quad core phonen2)1 gb ramn3)ips screenn4)slim, and very light, slimmer than samsung galaxy grand.n5) 3gn6) very good finishing, ( I never expected it to be so good, almost as good as samsung) n7) antenna very powerful, signal 5 bars 90% of the time, voice calls very sharp and clear.n8)charges very fast.n9) no heating problem even after continuous use of 4 hours.n10)very smooth and soft touch screen, very responsiven Minor consn1) ring volume not very loud. n2)gps is slown3)phone is pre filled with lots of useless apps by the manufactures which you cannot remove, uses up some of the ram, (still i found about 500 mb ram free.) n4)no choice of color, only one available.( seriously miss the white color)n5) 5 mp camera strictly average, good only for outdoor photography in sunlight.(but I compared with other 5 mp camera phones and this performed slightly better)n6) back cover very hard to remove, scratched the back cover the first time I removed it.n7) Only scratch guard is available in matching size, no flip cover available.n8) Battery life is about 30% less than samsung.( pricing is also 50 % cheaper than samsung)nn Would recommend this phone as it is the cheapest quad core mobile in India with ips screen and 1 gb ram with very good finish quality.

I am writing this review after 2 weeks of usage.nnGood Points-n1. Touch responser is very good and smooth.n2. Phone specs are very good. Has a 1.2GHz quad core processor and 1 GB RAM. No lags what so ever.n3. I dont use my phone for gaming, But I did try slightly heavy games like blood and glory, fast and furious 6, CSR racing, dead trigger etc. All these games ran smoothly without any lags. I did not try asphalt or heavier games. Lighter games like temple run and subway surfer are very smooth too.n4. I watched some videos on youtube. Picture quality was good. n5. Display is good and bright.n6. It is a 5inch phone, but is not as bulky as some of he other expensive phones of 5inch size. n7. It had almost all apps that I nedded pre loaded.. Whats app, youtube, gtalk, TOI, twitter, FB, world clock, google maps, google chrome, opera etc. All downloaded was games. It also has an anti virus per installed.nnBad Points-n1. The touch buttons do not illuminate in the dark. Once you get used to the phone it does not matter. But I did find it a little difficult at first.n2. Head phones are not great. I use a different head phone irrespective of phone or mp3 player. So, does not matter for me.nnOther Points-n1. Battery is decent. It works for a day for me with moderate to slightly heavy usage. n2. Speaker phones are decent too.n3. Camera is a 5MP camera. Again it is ok. Phone camera never gives the clarity of a good digital camera. This phone clicks decent pictures.n4. Definitely value for money phone. n5. Good aesthetics.. Looks like any other expensive phone. nnI am not some one who spends a lot of money on gadgets. I have a value for money phone (quad core phone less than 10K with kind of spcs it has). I am happy with it.

With features of 1 GB RAM n 4 GB ROM; it is just as expected - Fast & Responsive. Amazing speed at which one can interact with the applications. Somehow, my word documents (with file size of more than 2mb) open faster on Spice than on any other Nokia or Samsung tabs.nnThe inbuilt browser works great. As mentioned by other - Yes, incoming calls have a very good audibility. Loud-speaker - slightly less, but good enough for a drawing room environment.nnCamera Quality is very good, with addition feature of HD. Delivers perfectly for a 5MP capacity. The flash is a plus point. Spice's 'camera brightness' is much higher than what other phones offer at 5MP. Video quality is brilliant. Downloading MX Player helps.nnThe main drawback is battery backup... gets drained very fast on using 'whatsapp' or internet surfing. Or using high graphic games. 5hrs - 80% consumed. Batter is a common issue with every smartphone. Getting a portable charger helps.nnRead a lot of complaints about the heating issues. Never faced it despite playing games for 3 hrs n surfing for another 1 hr after that.nnwhen I bought it, there was no cover. But the rear of the phone is solid n smooth. Forget breaking, no scratch on falling down to the floor...nnppl criticize unknown brands easily. but if you're ready to settle for unbranded phones, Spice is the best. Agreed, customer service hardly exist and that is a high risk by itself. But the phone is brilliant and worth the price of 9K. It's been smooth sailing for me so far.
