I brought this mobile today from market. I must show you all the pros and cons: Pros: * Auto-focus decent rear Camera with OK flash and Hd (720p) video record capability (Awesome at daytime) and tap to focus capability, front camera is almost OK. * Dual core 1 Ghz snapdragon processor and around 400 Mb ram.* 1 Gb user available internal storage. * Beautiful & Slim design. * Sensors: Proximity, Light, 3 axis, Gravity. * Screen resolution is decent, brightness is very good. * Quadrant benchmark : 2500, Nina mark 2 : 44 fps ( very good). * Plays Temple run smoothly that means all the applications will run. * 5 point multi touch ( awesome). * Skype * Etc. Cons: (very few) * touch sense is a bit low ( I am still finding its setting to increase its sense) * Sometimes a bit laggy ( I dont know why) * In box headphone is of poor quality * Battery backup is not great but alright. (1 day after full charge)

After receiving my handset through ebay.in, I did not feel any disappointment for the price i paid. Good/nice hardware all accessories in white and free screen guard. Android 4.0.4 It is 5 fingers multi-touch. I have played some of the games like Temple Run, Angry Birds Space and Raging thunder. all works smooth without lag. ANTUTU banchmark SONY Live with walkman is 3196 AND MMX110 canvas2 is 4890 VIDEOCON 6092 Videocon a30 Quadrant score 2437 System is showing 341 MB of RAM. Free ram out of the box without installing any third party application is less than 100 mb which i seems very less as they have packed the mobile with soooo many inbuilt applications and a couple of games they also provide LED flash light application, history cleaner, gesture search, skype, facebook, The Times of India news paper, sound recorder etc. Set is having full support of Google play, maps. E-mail and Gmail is also there. It is having 1GB phone memory dedicated for applications and out of which more than 850 MB free which is a very nice. Weight is similar to that of samsung galaxy ace plus because I physically compared with it. Regarding GPU, I don’t think it is having a GPU but games are playing more good in Videocon A30 than in My Sony Ericsson Live with walkman. And equally good in Galaxy ACE PLUS & Videocon A30 Battery life is very disappointing. It did not last for a single day with both sim active and I did nothing on phone except 20 mins calling during the whole day. Ram is also an issue due to running applications which you cannot stop. 720p video on dice player is not at all running nicely. It is running in MX player. But nice hardware and value for money 1500 MAH battery is having an issue as it lasts less than a day with both sim and data active.

I am using my Videocon A30 for 15 days and this is my first android phone. Although, earlier I used my friends' andriod phones often. The phone is very good indeed. I shall describe the phone in some detail in accordance with my experience and knowledge.nnThe phone uses the Qualcomm MSM8225 chipset (SOC) with two ARM Cortex A5 cores (not scorpion! Check out Flipcart) clocked at 1GHz. This is an entry level SOC by Qualcomm in their S4 Play series . The cortex A5 core using ARMv7 instruction set (architecture) is also entry an level core with 1.57 DMIPS / MHz per core. The same SOC is used on HTC Desire X, but costs around Rs. 15k. The performance of videocon A30 is good and runs temple-run & F-18 carrier very smoothly if you have lesser applications running/installed; never hangs! nnThe build quality of phone is very good and the reviewers have done good comparisons here.nnThe phone comes with 512MB RAM. This is the main reason why heavy games give jerk (some times), but never hang! Contrarily, HTC Desire X has 768MB RAM. Vediocon could have increased the price by appropriate amount and given 1GB RAM. n1GB is the phone internal memory and can be expanded to 32GB by adding micro-SD card.nnTouch sensitivity and brightness of screen are good and pinch-to-zoom-in works well. nAll the proximity, ambient light and gravity sensors work very well. The phone also connects to wifi well. nnThe A30 has 1500mAh battery. The performance of battery can be enhanced using energy saving apps from google-play. I use "easy task killer" and "easy battery saver" apps. I am not a heavy gamer and use only 2G network with 2 sims active. With this usage battery lasts for a day (more than 20hrs) with out any problem because of the apps. If connected to wifi, any android phone will drain battery and the same with A30. nnThe heavy battery drain in performing any task is attributed to LINUX kernal used by Andriod OS. You will find faster battery drain on laptops too with OS like ubuntu, redhat, fedora using LINUX kernal.nnThe camera is of average quality. With this price tag vediocon can not afford better lens for camera although the Qualcomm SOC is capable. Out door shoot is good and indoor shoot even with led flash is not appreciable. nIf head-phone is used, the music quality is very good. The ear-phone coming with this phone is poor and saves some money for vediocon.nnI bought this Videocon A30 for Rs. 7K. Considering the above points, build quality, performance and the price, I would assign five stars to Videocon A30. nnI hope vediocon and other Indian mobile companies come out with better handsets in future. nnThank you.

Lets break down into the usual pros and cons.nnPros:n1. Dual core processor - Quadrant score 2566- Better than most of the phones under 10kn2. 4' inch screen and good resolution - Not too big and can be used with on hand and letters are crisp and clear.n3. Has all 3 possible sensors that can help in better usability - Light, Proximity, 3 axis Gravity.n4. Contains all the possible network and connectivity optionsnnCons:n1. Ram is very less to take full advantage of the dual core processor and worsened it by adding lot of default application. - Either have to disable it in the app management or might have to go to custom ROMs.n2. Headphone is of very bad quality - But mostly cant argue due to the low price of the phone.nnConsidering the fact that this is actually a sub 7.5k phone, it carries lot of options and if they had increased the RAM or atleast not added the extra junk apps, this would be the perfect value phone ever.
