Phone for Practical Use!

**Caution**nThis review is for those who want to get a budget android device with a focus for practical purposes. Its not a fancy item to show off!nnAfter my disclaimers, i am good to go!nI am using this phone since 2 months and got is @ 6580 Rs from Indiatinmes shopping so flipkart should learn how to control pricing. You can get it too if you got HDFC card.Here are my observations.nnMay be its a XOLO with a 6580 worth of cost but easily beats Xperia as far as speed goes.nnHardware:nnIt got a fast 1.2 Ghz quad core qualcomm chip, 800+MB user available RAM and ~ 3 GB space for user (plug a 32 gb card and save all your crap), dedicated adreno 203 chip for graphics, all placed over qualcom snapdragon chipset .It would be better than any off the mill Chinese phone like carbon, intex, micromax etc It never hanged till date and never lags for any application i ran. I am an engineer by profession & as a hobby, write apks for fun. Its a guinea pig for me to test the applications and boy it works like charm. Regarding common games like temple run, combats etc ,, no issues Graphics are good , it will run smooth, never complains. So, as far as speed is concern, I will say with this price its a total loot.nnConnectivity:nIt got all in one shop for sale i guess.nWifi work flawless, no heating whatsoever. Blutooth, 3G, GSM,Wifi hotspot all works great. It got a dedicated GPS chip so dosnt matter you have a gprs data pack or not, a working sim or not, just switch on the GPS, load sygic and maps and volla !! you are good to go with free navigation and thanks to sygic application, it has voice navigation , work like a pro. I am practically using this feature and performance is within 5 km/hr speed tolerance and within 30 meters of positional accuracy and that too for free! without GPRS... There are few great apps which will allow you to transfer data back and forth to device & your computer on wifi signals. works great. Wifi hotspot, bluetooth are all standard and no complains whatsoever.nnDisplay: very ordinary one glass solution. It is OK but you would be a fool if comparing Iphone's Display with this. add few zeros in your budget and get a i phone instead if you dont like its screen. For all practical purposes i will say screen is nice. nnBuild quality:nNothing fancy. Solid build , could be better but who cares as long as it works fine. The show off is a proprietary for i phone and xolo is cheap phone so compromise is evident. It would be like comparing maruti with bmw.nnSIM; Two sims (1 GSM-3G & 2nd GSM 2G)nnSensor:nThere is some lag in auto screen rotation sensor. Accelerometer, proximity work fine.nnCamera:nFront camera is just for video chatting with skype. If you do hangout, screen would be all pathetic. Use skype for video chat and you are visible. Primary cam is of 5 MP and ok for this price. It got a small LED flash and work fine. Nothing special about cams.Video quality is also fine.No complains.nnEarplug: Stereo headset with mic build quality is not good, however they perform fine.nSpeaker: Not loud but OK.nOS: Android 4.1 , works great.nnFor the novice users:nInstall viber: do voice chat over your wifi connection for freenInstall Skype: do video chat over your wifi connection for free nInstall Sygic: Load all the maps on SD card, switch on GPS and navigate with voice for free (no GPRS needed)nInstall Games: You know what to do!!!nnBattery: Drains like hell. This is the only bad thing in this phone. with 1450 mah, it rains while playing games, using GPS, wifi etc. For standby & voice chat it is ok but for more common tasks, performance is poor. Lucky me, i am not allowed to use cell in office so either it rests in home plugged in during usages or plugged in the car getting it juice form usb port. Both ways i am ok with it. But for those who always in the run- "Please dont waste your money here, get something with 2600 mah or more" for rest of us, i will say killer deal.. nnSo i wont make a word on what you shud do. Read the review and decide on your own..

Aha...Now thats What you call every penny worth deal

Guys I have been using this phone from past one week and found it's the best value for money Andriod device in India. I own Samsung Galaxy Note 1 and Samsung Galaxy Grand duos...had to loose 50K for buying both...but XOLO Q500 only cost me 7200 bucks and trust me it gives me every penny worth feel while I use it. First of all you wont get any phone with 1.2 quad core Snapdragon processor with 1 GB RAM in mare 7000 INR and that too with a very good 4 inch touchscreen. This phone is simply superb as far as speed, looks and overall performance is concerned, Only one thing which I feel Xolo should improve is it's 5 MP camera which has a very poor flash light which doesn't work properly but that too can be ignored as there is a very good feature in camera pp to improve backlight after clicking the photo. So that too doesn't matter. Go for it...hard to beat deal.
