Karbonn A24 is the next in line from Karbonn Mobiles probably hitting the Indian markets in August. There are many new killer features that will make the A24 the best buy, this includes the price too.
Still waiting for the Spice Mi-500 well there is more to come, the Karbonn A24 is way ahead and Spice did make a mistake by delaying the launch. Karbonn claims that the A24 smartphone display (960×540 pixels) will be something as better as what you see on the iPhone 4S, WOW!.
Add to it the default OS loaded is the latest Jelly Bean or Android 4.1. The A24 is also being termed as a Phablet (Tablet + Phone) but I don’t think the category fit here, especially when you look at the screen size with is just 4.5 inches, big enough but a 5 inch screen could have made a difference. I call it, the min Phablet.
There is more on the A24, to start with it will come loaded with all the necessary features like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth GPS etc. If you are still not impressed with it, then the 8 MP rear autofocus camera, plus a front camera for video calling, could change your mind. This phone will support 3G (no 4G yet), GPRS and EDGE. A dual core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz will meet your expectations.

Karbonn A24 Key features
- Dual Core (1.2GHz) processor.
- RAM / ROM / Internal Memory – Unknown.
- Network (GSM/WCDMA).
- 4.5 inch capacitive touchscreen supporting amazing 960×540 pixels resolution.
- Topped with Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean).
- 3G (HSDPA / HSUPA), 2G, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and micro USB.
- Dual Cameras (Rear 8MP AF with LED flash + Front VGA).
- Additional features: Micro SD slot, Gravity sensors, Proximity sensors and 3.5 mm Jack.
You will agree that the Karbonn A24 specifications are too good, well now for the price it’s under Rs. 13,000. I was planning to buy the Spice Mi-500, but I have changed my mind, I will wait for the A24. Expect the Karbonn A24 review as soon as I get a hand on it, unless something better than this is launched, at a competitive price, of course.

I am waiting karbonn a24 i can wait till feb 1st week Is that time enough to get a24 pls tell that sir.
Mohamed, there is no news about A24, not sure if the handset will ever be launched.
Hi gogi, This is Mack here and my question is I am planing to bye KarbonnA21 but I am also looking for karbonnn A9 plus. which one should i buy for?. And which one is the good screen TFT or LCD..bcs A21 has tft screen and A9plus has lcd.. Pls suggest..
Or u suggest some good smart phones options…
Mack, instead of A21 go with A110 and instead of A9+ go with Karbonn A11.
It seems the company may never launch a24, it might just be a hoax to threaten its competitors, if it were not a hoax what would be the reason to delay it for more than 4 months.
When will karbonn a24 release. I am waiting from august. Please tell me gogi.
Deepak, its been too late it may never happen better look for some other handset.
Dear Gogi
I have been waiting for Karbonn A24. I’m checking it in the border side Sunauli but is not available. Also read all the post and am confused if it’s released.
Kindly let me know
Dinesh, no nothing yet about K A24.
Hi Gogi,
Good to see Karbon A24.

I will buy this but iphone 4s has 3.5 inch with 640 x 960 pixels with 330 ppi can a24 play 1080p videos in 30fps.
If anyone wants to buy a24 after available at shop contact me at my mail address …aniket8593@gmail.com
Thanks to karbonn a24, i’ve got a Nexus 4… If karbonn a24 had been released any sooner I would’ve fell for it… Thank u Karbonnnn
I am confused between micromax a110 and karbonn a24. Pls suggest me which one to buy. I have heard that a110 has poor battery backup. Pls let me know your opinion. Thnx.
Only thing which i consider worth buying in karbon a24 is its propagated 1 gb ram, this size makes these low cost phone my favorite.
Waiting, waiting., I got tired it will release in 2020, now get this to hell not wanna buy.
I think its a rumor but some say 4.1 having a bug and they are releasing next ver which will be named jelly bean as well. I think karbonn is waiting for this update for releasing A24.
hi,
gogi please tell me karbonn a 24 release date
Adharsh V R
Karbonn is a very good Indian manufacturer. I bought A9+, its build quality is extremely good and the performance is smooth. Snapdragon dual core processor done a good job minor con is camera quality. I have one doubt gogi sir will it get Jelly Bean update? I am also eagerly waiting for karbonn A24, plz reply.
Adharsh, I have not checked the A9+ yet, but don’t think it will get a jelly Bean update. No news about A24 yet.
Hi Gogi I have been also waiting for Karbonn A24. Should I wait for some more time or other company like micromax will launch A24 type mobile Please reply soon.
Hi Gogi Ihave been
Waiting for Karbonn A24 release in market .When is it coming ?
Or Should I go ahead buy A 21 instead.
NO NEWS of A24, now already its better to go with either LONOVO phones or ZOPO, they will offer better quality, for 10% more price i think, we will compare when they come on the road !
No, prakasa rao, don’t go for karbonn a21. It’s features are extremely good but the matter is speed. Even though it has got a 1.2 Ghz dual core processor which is the same as karbonn a24, the ram doesn’t support it. While you run a program or an app, the two processor (ie the dual core processor) will take each some amount of space from the ram to run a single app. So you cant run 2 apps fast. To run it fast in a 1.2 Ghz dual core processor it should at least have 768 MB of ram. The k-a21 has only 512 MB of ram whereas the k-24 has 1 GB ram.
hi Gogi, I have bought A21, although i have no experience of smartphone but for browsing i found Karbonn A21 ok. But if their is any moving object, camera quality of this is not good at all. kindly suggest any application to improve the camera quality.
Neeraj, for moving object camera is no good, it is the case on all smartphones. For better picture you can try using the different modes and manually try selecting scene modes – I mean avoid auto detect mode where possible. See if you get better results. Outdoor the camera quality should be excellent, indoors not that good.
Karbonn a24 is never gonna comes out…oh by the way I’m gonna buy galaxy note 2 after 2 days…and there is nothing better bigger greater than galaxy note 2 right now…not even i phone 5
Thank you gogi, but I think I ll wait for 2 more days, coz my friends told me that karbonn is going to launch a24 on the final of the karbonn cricket series, lets see.
Gogi, do you have any ideas about the launch of micromax a90 + and is it going to sport a 960 * 540 resolution screen with16M colors because anything less than this will not look crisp?
Please check this link http://www.gogi.in/micromax-a90i-superfone-pixel.html
I am waiting for this phone since 20 days and now I need an android phone desperately, please suggest me the best android phone up to 12K , please suggest a phone with a good body make too..
Wait for few more days for Micromax A110 or go with A18 or Karbonn A9+.
Gogi, karbonn A9+ or karbonn A18, your choice?
Vishu, I will go with A9+.
Hi good to see so much of action for this phone! I personally have karbonn a9 and a18, a9 is good look wise and built wise I like karbonn for their products.
Had a bad experience with micromax funbook, and can't wait any longer for a24, but have reservation try in mmx a110 coz its hard wares and ram just freeze I don't wanna trust mmx, or try spice!
Just waiting for clt20 to end to get the release of a24!!!
Fingers crossed hope it happens and it has 1gb ram and its slim just like s2.
Do you really think karbonn is much better than mmx? I was planning to buy mmx a110. What bad experiences did you noticed in mmx funbook? Reply soon.
Don’t worry mmx is to good.
Dear,
Just joking )
I also have burnt my hands by purchasing Micromax A85, but now all in my family have Micromax, my kids have Micromax Funbook, my wife and Brother have A90 and I have A110, all are working well, so it is possible that you might have had faced a problem in funbook, which can happen to any product and any brand, MMX is doing very good has beaten all in many aspects and is now India’s 3rd largest Mobile Company according to an article in Hindustan Times Mumbai edition published on 5th of November 2012. So believe me MMX is good, until you star don’t match with the brand and the other product that you buy also has a problem(
Hi Gogi, How much longer do you think we would need to wait for the A24? my existing phone is dying already (touch is dead, I can only receive calls and call back the 1st num on my dial list
) and I am pulling along waiting for A24… but if its taking too long then I really need to buy myself another phone pretty soon any advice on how much longer I could wait?
Mahesh, Nothing yet, A24 is still rumored it may or may not happen. The A21 seems close to what A24 was to house.
Hi Gogi,
I think you are doing a great job and I want advice from you. I am planing to buy a dual SIM Android mobile. Please suggest should I go for Samsung galaxy s duos or should I wait for Karbonn A24 (or any other if better than A24).. My budget is around 15k.
Thanks in advance…
Satish, wait for few days also the A110 from Micromax will be available wait for its review and then choose. You can easily get a dual core for under Rs. 15K.
