The QiKU Q Terra is a solid all rounder and one that deserves more than a second look
Jan 15 2016 By Deepak DhingraAnybody who follows cricket would know that captains prefer all rounders in their teams, but these players are really hard to find. The QiKU Q Terra is one such all rounder, scoring high in almost each and every aspect. It’s wrapped in metal, looks stylish, performs smoothly, lasts long on a single charge and offers good image quality from its dual sensors. The software department is mind boggling in terms of the features available, and power users are bound to appreciate the extensive options, tweaks and level of control offered. On the flip side, these can quickly turn into a negative as QiKU seems to have gone overboard by attempting to cram so many features into the platform, and the settings could seem daunting to many. This is really the only fly in the ointment, as most of the other things we’ve mentioned earlier (like non-backlit keys and half-baked features) are mere niggles, and warrants deduction of half a point from the rating. That said, some of the options can probably be ignored and left at default in case you don’t want to muck about and wrap your head around them.As far as the competition is concerned, we can’t say there’s anything else in the same price bracket that can match up to the Q Terra in case you’re looking for a large-screened daily driver. The likes of the ASUS ZenFone 2 (review) and OnePlus One (review) come close, but we think the Q Terra packs in enough to outshine them. Others like the OnePlus 2 (review) and Moto X Style (review) are priced higher, so if your budget is around the Rs 20k mark, we’d still come back to the Q Terra.In a nutshell, the QiKU Q Terra has its share of rough edges and it could be a bit of a stretch to call it a game changer, but we think it should be at the top of your shortlist if you’re looking for a capable large-screened smartphone that doesn’t cost a bomb. To consider it however, you’d need to be willing to make the jump towards a relatively unknown, and odd-sounding brand, but if our experience with the Q Terra is any indication, this jump could well be worth it.Â
