User Reviews for Salora SM401

DO NOT CONSIDER THIS AS A CHINESE PHONE. IT ISN'T Bought blue one which is quite beautiful, typical desi phone i must say. I had salora tv and radio long back which tempted me to buy another electronic gadget of salora. Awesome battery life, 2days on a single charge (calls, net surfing & bluetooth included). Some subtle features but v.important like sms scheduler, call blacklist (sends busy tone to the caller directly, whereas my symbian v60 rings once and then blocks), answering machine (awesome, u can record tour message and set time limit for recording), call recorder, fm recorder. There is also Flight mode Can be flawlessly used as a webcam. GPRS is fine and quick. Bluetooth is fast. Faster than motorola phones, transfer is v.quick via my computer on bluetooth (impressive) Memory expandable upto 16gb. Also an ok 1.3mp camera with flash(not powerful though) USB charging & mind blowing sound (not like chinese ones), one can play in background and swiftly browse the songs via dedicated keys on the top. I connected this phone to a 5.1ch outdoor & the effect was AWESOME. & all these for 1.6k Cons:- Initially, one may find typing tough as the alignment of keys is tight and elongated. Only 2 themes. Have to compress images to set them as wallpaper/contact image. Has to keep camera on night mode always as to get clearer/bright picture even during daytime. Overall, I would recommend this phone to all those who wanna buy cell with a budget of 1.5k with pro features like FM & call recording, answer machine & call blacklisting. This one is better functionally than spice/micromax under 2k. finally, flipkart is awesome in packing matters.

1600rs... worth every penny. LOOKS: simple, yet sleek. big sized buttons, responsive screen extremely bright BATTERY LIFE: trust me, extremely good. CAMERA: average, clicks decent pictures during the day. flash not powerful at all. SPEAKERS: mindblowing clarity and volume.. almost makes it a music phone. EARPHONES: good. tried others too, they work great. OS: java, extremely well setup layout of icons, good default theme with bright animations. FINAL CONCLUSION: as i have bought it for my grandfather, he finds it simple and easy to use. personally i think its a great bargain.

Its a good phone. I got it delivered on 13th feb, i ordered it on 5th of feb. The phone operating system is a better version of the Chinese mobiles available in the market. Good side:- 1200 mAh, good battery life. Sound is loud and crisp. sounds good on headphone. bluetooth works well. data service is there with pre loaded apps(google,orkut,facebook etc) Bad side:- Camera quality not so good (well one should not expect at this price range) keypad is bit hard verdict:- Good phone at this price range,with larger screen and a good music and FM player

Every review stated above were true but there is a problem with the radiation , using the phone for more than 15 mins calling could cause a massive head ache . So be careful.

I bought this mobile phone last week, it is perfectly working. It has almost all features as expected. And start up is very fast even its a dual sim phone whereas starting up of other branded dual sim mobiles are slow.. But it gets very loud even for volume level 1, makes irritating. simply valuable product for money. go for it.
