As I can see from other reviews, I'll be the first Certified buyer here.nnFirst of all, hats off to Flipkart and ekart!!! Ordered this phone on Sunday, 6 October, 2013 11:03 AM and received it on Monday, 7 October, 2013 04:00 PM so its less than 30 hours from Bangalore to Mumbai, mindblowing!!!! Hats off to you guyz!!!nnI'll talk about the cons first because they are really annoying me right now.nn1) Viewing angles are good sideways, but very bad from top and bottom. So if you are playing games in landscape orientation, then it will cause you headaches as the screen gets blackened with slightest of tilt.nn2) Cameras, both, are nothing but jokes. No other words.nn3) Headphones which look impressive don't sound that well. But maybe they are new and I should run them in burn-in period for around 100 hours and then their quality might improve. It's not a con actually but I felt it was worth mentioning.nnThat's it with the cons. There are plenty of good things and I'll not highlight them in points form but in paragraph style because there's plenty to write about.nnThe main highlight of this phone is the design which is just fantastic. The build quality looks premium and you'll feel very nice to hold this phone in your hands. Because of the impressive design, the phone feels a lot slimmer than it actually is. Nice job by MMX in this department. My phone doesn't heat that much as mentioned by other reviewers. Design, build quality and hardware, all are pretty solid.nnHardware pretty impressive for a budget phone. Specs are, 1.3 ghz dual core and not 1.2 ghz as mentioned. FWVGA 5 inch screen with 5 point multitouch, pretty good loudspeaker and crisp clear sound, RAM 512 MB and free ram around 230 mb which is excellent I must say.nnThe screen is sharp and vivid, though the resolution is low and bad viewing angles, it is smooth and touch response is just perfect. The colours are 16.7 millions, while you'll get at the most 262k colours in similar budget phones.nnAs mentioned earlier, lots of high graphics games are supported and all the basic games and apps have no issues at all. High graphic games like N.O.V.A. 3, Modern Combat 4, Asphalt 7 & 8, Real Racing 3 and even FIFA 2014 run pretty good and I am impressed with the performance. No problems with apps and performance, whatever works does work very well without any issues. Internal memory for apps is more than 1 gb so no need to worry about internal memory and no need to move apps to sdcard also. Game data is stored on external micro sdcard so that's EXCELLENT and worth mentioning.nnAndroid Jelly Bean 4.2.2, butter smooth. Latest version is there so we need not worry about latest os and all.nnHD and Full HD videos are supported in Hardware mode in MX player. Internet speed is good in all modes, eg. wifi, 3g and even 2g. Comes with two screen guards out of which one is already applied on phone. Funny thing, mine which was already applied on the phone went off while I tried to remove protective film so had to use other screen guard. nnWhen compared to its sibling Canvas Fun A74, it is a much better deal because,n1) A74 Screen size is 4.5 inch, A76 is 5 inchern2) A74 supports 3 finger multitouch, A76 has 5 finger multitouchn3) Battery of A74 is 1500 mah, A76 has 2000 mahnRest all the things are samen4) The price difference is just 250 bucks.nnI bought this for Rs. 7599 as per the discount of 5%.nnNenamark 2 score is 40 fps, Antutu is 9600, Quadrant is 3900nnThis is my 7th android phone in past 4 years and I am pretty much happy with it. And I'd suggest you all to buy this instead of other brand phones in similar budget as the services of MMX have really improved now-a-days, while I'm fed up with after sales services from brands like Karbonn, Xolo and even Samsung.
