The Yuphoria rocks powerful specs and brings the Cyanogen experience on a budget. Our review
Jun 25 2015 By Deepak DhingraAt Rs 6,999, the YU Yuphoria is a highly noteworthy option for anyone looking for a capable budget device. The specs that it offers for its asking price are quite loaded, and the fact that it uses a metal frame and looks stylish are the proverbial icing on the cake. But that’s just one side of the coin. At the time this smartphone was announced, we thought it’s going to trump the Lenovo A6000 Plus (review) easily. The A6000 Plus was pretty much the most affordable smartphone with 2GB of RAM at the time. However, with the gripes we have with the Yuphoria, we can’t really recommend it outright. The Coolpad Dazen 1 (unboxing first impressions) is also another compelling offering with 2GB of RAM, though the offered storage is 8GB. Coolpad launched it at Rs 6,999, but has since dropped the price to Rs 5,999 making it a worthy option, at least on paper.We believe that the issues we’ve seen on the Yuphoria are mostly software related, and can possibly be resolved via a software update. In fact, YU has just released an update, and we hope that it addresses the problems we’ve mentioned. As of the time of writing this review, our test unit hadn’t received the update. YU’s blog post mentions that the update would be rolling out over the next few weeks and if it does iron out the kinks and improve the battery life, the Yuphoria has what it takes to be a very compelling option in the affordable segment. Update, June 30th We`ve just flashed the incremental update released by YU manually on our review unit, and can confirm that it does resolve most of the issues we mentioned. The device generally feels more responsive, and the freezes on the lockscreen and the delay in the screen switching when receiving incoming calls are gone. Thanks to the update, we feel that the Yuphoria is definitely a worthy buy if you`re looking for a 4G-capable device without breaking the bank. Accordingly, we`re also revising our review rating to reflect this.
