Lava Mobiles has silently launched another low cost dual core handset called the lava Iris 352e that runs on Android 4.2 and supports dual SIM. The Iris 352e is priced at Rs. 3,749. This handset does not support the 3G networks.
Another low budget phone probably powered by the same 1.3GHz dual core MediaTek chipset that we have seen on almost all new dual core handsets that were recently launched. The Iris 352e supports dual SIM with dual standby mode.
The multi touch screen is 3.5 inches with resolution 480×320 pixels – 262K colors. It’s a dual core powered handset that does not support 3G. There is 2MP rear camera and VGA front camera. Handset is 12.5mm thick and weight is 98 grams.
352e runs on Android 4.2 with 256MB RAM and 113 MB storage for apps. There is micro SD card support (32GB). Other features are 2G(EDGE/GPRS), micro USB, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Probably with no built in GPS receiver. Battery is 1450 mAh capacity with up to 6 hours talk-time on 2G networks.
Lava Iris 352e is listed on many online stores with a lowest price tag of Rs. 3,749.

You can should not be an issue.

I think the clamor for a review of a Rs 3500 entry level android hand 4.2 set is growing– this particular set seems to be quite good as far specs are concerned what with a dual core processor as well as camera with a LED flash- these mobiles have a huge market in India- not all Indians have 6 or 10 or 20 k to spend on a mobile. Mr Rana you will be doing a favor to lots of ppl. by reviewing this set..or alternately suggest a site where a genuine review of such hand sets is available..i am personally interested to gift one to a nephew on his 15th birthday.
Gogi Rana
I will try getting this for review sometime next week.
Vijay
Thanks Mr Rana
You will be filling a void..By having a review of a 256 MB RAM set running 4.2, i very much could have picked up this set for about Rs 3200 with a coupon code but avoided, because of lack of a review..surprisings lots of ppl i meet are looking for a 3.5inch Android Set running 4.2–mainly for internet with 2G/Wi-fi, and mainly for whatsapp. ( which i think will eventually be the death knell of the SMS..

Hi gogi sir, i want a android smartphone which have good camera and powerful gpu for gaming and a brilliant screen like amoled or ips, after many searches two handset in my eyes are Micromax A90s pixel and canvas 2 plus and my budget is about 10k please suggest me about this i’m waiting for your kind answer…… 🙂
Kumar Abhishek
Canvas plus not that awesome screen man. I would suggest Karbonn S5 or Xolo Q800. Both are around 10-11k and are awesome in performance and camera and also have good screen. I am sure those will be better than A90s and can2+. Also Zen 701 HD is available on ebay at 9200 (after coupon) but it’s reviews suggest that some of them are defective.
Sanchit
Yes gogi sir u should review at least one phn with this 256 mb ram
so users can at least get an idea on how these perform in basic tasks
and dey can choose this above basic feature phns.
still Majority of india buys phn under 5k only.. its a bitter truth. :\
rohit
these specs on 256mb ram gives about 100 mb free ram on start up,and still it can play temple run2 n also some hd games . good phone for basic users with low budget and better than those single core 2.3 vrsn 256 mb ram phones.

Hi Gogi,
I have been reading your post for couple of weeks and find it very interesting with all the info that you provide.
I do have a query.. I have Micromax A85 can you let me know if I can install android 4 or above, is it possible.. I have installed android 2.3 as the stock one was a battery sipper.
Thanks…

lava needs to promote its company atleast like Micromax to get firm position with so many phones getting released they need some advertisements
manju
hi, gogi. You should review atleast one phone with above specification so it helps people while choosing alternative phone to feature phones,i am thinking to buy one of these 256mb,1.3dc,jb smart phones as secondary phone. And these days you are not reviewing android phones below 5k, 4k.. Thanks..
