Another Micromax handset called the Micromax A68 Smarty 4.0 now gets listed on lalajionline for a price of Rs. 7,499. This is a 1GHz, ICS powered handset with 5MP camera.
The Micromax A68 it seems is here to complete with the Kabonn A15. However price wise the Karbonn A15 still wins. The A68 is dual SIM phone with a 1GHz processor and 512MB RAM. The specifications listed on the lalajionline may not be 100% accurate.
As per the specs the internal storage is 2GB, micro SD card of up to 32GB is supported. The display screen is 4 inches with 800×480 pixel resolution. The handset is 9.9mm thin. There is a 5MP camera with fixed focus and LED flash.
Interestingly there is no mention of 3G, instead 2G network is mentioned. I think for the price it should have 3G. Other features included are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, micro USB and 3.5mm jack. Not sure if GPS is included it’s not mentioned in on the box pack.
Micromax had recently launched the Micromax A25 Smarty a low cost 2G phone. The Micromax A68 comes with 1600 mAh battery that gives a talktime of about 5 hours and standby time of about 6 days. Looking at the specs 4 inch screen and ICS OS is good but the price is much more than the Karbonn A15, moreover the 5MP fixed focus camera will not be enough to convince users. What do you say?

We all know that these phones are manufactured in China or you can say are rebranded Chinese phones but I think Micromax has proven by bringing devices like A52, A100, A90, A110, A90s, A25 etc..that they are indeed one of the top smartphone sellers in India. Karbonn on the other side is doing a decent job but has not yet brought phones like Micromax A110 and A90s.
We all know the truth about both of these sellers after sales service but again what are you expecting in this price range? If you handle these phones with care, they can easily last for more than a year or two.
Hope the above information will help you decide between Micromax A68 and Karbonn A15.
