Byond B63 a dual core dual SIM smartphone with a 4.5 inch screen and running on Jelly Bean OS, now listed on Flipkart with a price tag of Rs. 9,999. Suddenly we are seeing too many dual core handsets being launched.
And why not, the dual core handsets will be outdated soon with quad core models, and you just need one such handset. Anyway those waiting for dual core handsets, well now there are just too many options, but ironically it is difficult to get some or all of these handsets as they run out of stock pretty soon.
The Byond B63 is powered by a 1.2GHz dual core processor with dual SIM capabilities. The handset weighs 164 grams with 10.7 mm thickness. The main highlight is the Jelly Bean OS that it comes loaded with.
The TFT LCD Screen is 4.5 inches with supported resolution of 950×540 pixels (qHD) and also supports 5 point multi touch. The B63 comes with 512MB RAM and 4GB internal storage. Micro SD card is supported.
Other features included are 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, micro USB port and 3.5 mm jack. The handset gets power from a 2000 mAh battery. There are two cameras a 0.3 MP front and an 8MP rear auto focus with LED flash.
For the price this definitely looks like a good buy and that too with Jelly Bean OS. You also get leather pouch within the box pack. The Celkon A200 is also available on Flipkart for Rs. 7,999.

Sir, Thanks for the review of B63. I want to by MMX A110, but it is not available in the market. So I am thinking of B63. Is it advisable to buy B63 instead of A110? Thanks in advance.

I am planning to buy a budget phone less than 10k.. can u suggest me a phone with a decent camera and 1gb ram…
Hi, Gogi. I am first time posting on your wall. I have been referring your site for new launches and daily updates… I really appreciate you for updating on these various mobiles on daily basis. I am planning to purchase this Byond B63 mobile but having confusion in the brand value… request you to give full depth review of this phone if possible…
Kanaiya, they told they will send the review unit, I am still waiting for that.
I am using this phone. In the 3 days I have had this in my hands, I can say the following
Pros
- Cheapest Jellybean phone in the market
- Good 4.5 inch screen with high resolution (better than Samsung Grand Duos)
- Enough processing power to run most apps, suits my needs to the T
- Not much battery drainage – Used phone for 4 hrs with 3G data / installing & testing apps – battery went from 75% to 60% only.
Cons:
- Camera isn’t so good, a 3MP camera gives better quality than the 8MP camera this phone has
- Processor is reported in the specs as a 1.2 Ghz Dual core, though online benchmarking tools (Quadrant) show it to be 1Ghz Dual core
- Phone heats up very fast on using mobile data / maps
- 720p videos do not play well
Hey please tell me the bench marking scores and gaming review. Is 512 mb ram sufficient enough? Also, hows the sound quality?
I buy this phone from six days. I totaly agree with Ankit,s opinion. Camera is so bad.
hi gogi, Does 512 ram is sufficient for running jelly bean for this hand set , i heard that for smooth running the jelly bean hand 1gb ram is must, is it correct?
Prasad, don’t think 1GB is required, JB can work on 512MB also.
Great Looks. I Like this Phone.
Gogi sir, can we get android 5.0 update for this phone? Is Byond a reliable brand?
Does it have ips screen and led is single or dual, and gpu?
Hi Gogi,
Everyone’s now jumping onto the dual core bandwagon. Jelly bean, out of the box is going to be a USP.
Looking forward to your review on Videcon a30 and Lava Xolo a700 & a800 and also Mediatek vs Qualcomm.
Gogiji , byond b63 also looks good to me accept 512 mb ram & most important hows d performance of d features it has……so, plz do review & give benchmark scores…..& ratings…waiting for it…..
I will be getting a review unit soon, so that is also in queue.
Waiting for your review, jellybean in new for budget phones and buying this phone can make me hide its brand name from friends but im ready for it if Jellybean is worth that risk, does it? pls do a review as soon as possible
Hi Gogi,
Why are the mobile companies not providing smartphones with 1GB RAM instead of giving us phones with 512MB RAM?? We won’t mind an increase in price around Rs.11,000 to Rs.12,000. We require phones with sufficient RAM memory to run applications smoothly.
I guess the cost, and even on 512RAM the performance is really good no difference between 1GB and 512MB but noticeable only when you multi task more or play games.
Gogi sir, Plz have a luk on the new “micromax a120 canvas 3″ It will be coming soon in the market D specifications look too cool.
Jeet, I am aware of it, but all you see is speculations nothing confirmed yet. We don’t know if it will be 5 inch phone or a lower screen one in which case it will not be called canvas. So wait.
Thanks gogi still expecting high from canvas 3.
Hello Gogi, lots of confusion…please suggest only a mobile under 10000.
Sunny, A110, Lava Iris 501 and this B63, you have 3 options. I have not checked the B63 but A110 already done review and 501 review is up you can check.
Dear Mr. Gogi
I am very much confused with following three phones
1. Lava 501:— Got big screen. Better battery but ICS n low brand value
2. Bryond B63:… Smaller scrreen size than Lava 501 but its a jelly Bean but highes processing speed. Little bit higher priced than Lava 501, BUT UNKNOWN BRAD VALUE. No past performance review.
3. MMX Canvas 2:… Higher Price but bigger Brand Value still an ICS
Whcih one to bye?? Please suggest.
If possible please reply on my email also.
Thanks and Regards,
Pankaj W.
Sir can you do the unboxing of Byond B63 android smartphone looks like very good phone in price range, please, cheers.
Dear Gogi
Please confirm the O.S.details b’coz when launching time of Phab lll it was j.b.and when i purchased it ,was ics.
Anyway I am from the same city where this phone is manufacturing I will try to get details and update you on this.
Also while using Phab lll light sensor dosent respod ,f.m.clearity not up to the mark.
So please review on this at the earliest.
Santosh Shirke, Pune.
Ok thanks someone who has ordered Byond can you please do.
No review for this one? sorry for troubling so much, but I have to exchange cell withing 4 days.
Am still waiting for review unit. You can try the A110 or Lava Iris 501.
Not andi 4.5h? should I get new piece in that itself or its not that good?
Andi 4.5h is also good and its with 1GB RAM hence priced more.
Thank you sir, cheers.
Why, WHY no 1 GB RAM!
Totally Agree, even there are some TAB’s available online having ICS, 7 inch capacitive, 4ooo mAh battery, 1 Ghz processor and 1 GB RAM with calling function.. under 8k.
I am looking for tab with calling function … please tell me ….. with ICS, 7 inch capacitive, 4ooo mAh battery, 1 Ghz processor and 1 GB RAM with calling function.. under 8k.
Waoo! Gogi you are building your Fans! Nice Review
Silly copy of MMX A110@
Hi gogi,thank u very much such a nice articles u r posting here.i think it’s 2 late 4 byond 2 launch dual core handset…co’z we’d already a lots of options. Nw it’s time 4 quad core,and huwei has already took initiative by announcing G520,a 4.5” smartphone powered by mediatake MT6589 quad core processor @ just 225 dollar.and hope very soon Indian brand like micromax,karbbon,lava etc will follow them..here is link 4 huwei just announced G520 http://m.gsmarena.com/huawei_g520_is_a_45_quadcore_phone_on_a_budget_china_only-news-5346.php
The looks are like any HTC Phone. A good buy, however.
Micromax must learn lesson of this gadget at least upgrade its operating system 2 jellybean.
Good phone has at least some thing better than micromax a110 in screen resolution.
It seems Impressive than all previous launches!
Mine does not heat up!. It does have 4gb internal memory, 2 is usable. It also syncs facebook contacts. Add facebook account, go to settings-> accounts-> select facebook, and select sync on..
Don’t spread false information. I already have one, and if i need one more, I will not hesitate to buy byond b63. Happy with it
Every one or the other gives false information just to bring confusions among others though inside they feel the product is good. BYOND B63 is a fantastic unit and doesnt have any flaw till date. Its one of best successful model of Byond.
