Micromax Canvas A115: 3D experience at rock-bottom price

The first thought that struck me after hearing the name Micromax Canvas 3D (known as A115) was, does one need special 3D glasses to use it? One doesn't. Though Micromax is not a pioneer of 3D smartphones, it has an edge in this segment, it is priced at only Rs 9,999. HTC and LG, too, have 3D smartphone offerings, but these aren't very popular. For a 3D-addict, the Canvas 3D is a treat, though one has to watch it from a particular angle. It looks similar to the LG Optimus 3D. At 12.7 cm, the screen is bigger than the LG and HTC 3D variants. The clarity in 3D display is much better. The phone has two keys - for power and volume - and gives it a clean look. The applications can be easily accessed by a touch on the screen. The phone is powered by a dual-core 1.2 GHz processor, with 512 MB RAM and has 4GB onboard memory and a microSD card slot. The Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean makes things fast and smooth. The interface, too, is very responsive - one doesn't have to try too hard in shifting between apps and menus.
