You will soon be able to buy the Micromax A116 as it is now listed on Saholic with a coming soon status. The price tag or the expected release date is not mentioned.
The Micromax canvas HD is the next highly looked for handset that I am sure will create another buzz like the one we have seen and still seeing for the Micromax A110. The A116 USP is HD display, 1GB RAM and 1.2GHz quad core processor.
Micromax also becomes the first Indian company to announce the quad core handset. We might see some more companies joining the bandwagon within few weeks or months. For those waiting for a low cost quad core the A116 is the only option for now.
The Micromax A116 comes with 4GB internal storage with micro SD support. For connectivity there is 3G with HSDPA speed of up to 42Mbps, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0 and micro USB port. The camera however is of the same 8MP resolution with LED flash as seen on A110 with a front VGA camera.
The battery is of 2100 mAh capacity that should give about the same backup that the canvas 2 gives. The handset runs on the Jelly Bean 4.1 OS. The price as disclosed at the press release was under Rs. 15,000. So let’s see what Saholic or any other online site will price it at.

Don’t know how they got the stock when the A116 is being delayed.
They had given note as this Product Will Be Delivered Within 7days After Release.
Hey don’t buy from MVP you will regret.
They don’t deliver even for months. When they have out of stock even then they show in stock.
Just check the complaints at consumer court forum. I had also suffered the same.
You should be a lot patient if you want to buy from MVP.
hi virtual.
just wanted to know have you got the phone from MVP. because even im a victim of MVP
Same here. booked one on the 4th of Feb. Screen showed “in-stock” inspite of the phone not even being launched !!! Tried emails, phones, everything. No reply. Nothing.
Hi,
I am also suffering from myvirtualplaza these days, as I made a payment of 15000 when I booked Canvas A116 on 8th Feb.
Is there a way to get refund?
Also, How long did it take to deliver, when you purchased from them?
I think they are fake… Heard a lot of complaints about them.
MYVIRTUALPLAZA.COM are big time fakers. right now im a victim for there micromax A116. after placing the order they just gave me a auto reply regarding my transaction details. after that no service from them. i tried calling all there number but all are busy 24hrs and send about 12 emails to all the concerned people. no reply from them… dont get caught by there fake advertisements. “NEVER EVER BUY ANYTHING FROM MYVIRTUALPLAZA.COM” . my small request for everyone
I agree with you Arun & have been victim too. When did you order & what steps can we take to get our money back or product?
If u paid by credit card then u can contact your bank and fill a dispute form..u will get your money within 15 days..If u paid by debit card then u will get your money by charge back though it will take atleast 2-3 months
Thanks Ashish for this info, I paid via Netbanking. Please suggest me in this case.
MMX A116 when it will be in the market? and where can I make the advance booking for it?
Delayed, but don’t go for advance bookings.
This phone will be good like me i’m a baba.
Hii all,
Read this article .
Mithlesh, MMX said the handset will be available in first week of feb. Chinese new year starts from 10th feb. I guess they they don’t want to stop the flow i.e. launch the handset and then for the rest of the feb – no stock and hence out of stock status. Lets see what Karbonn does.
Today I saw the SG grand in a mobile showroom and to me it looked very ugly as the resolution is not so good….don’t know what happened to Samsung, 800×440 in 5 inch screen??? I immediately cancelled my prebook order which I did a week ago on a online store..thinking about mmx a116 now!!
Saholic says device will be available on 10th feb 🙂
no march 4
Dear Gogi, i am going to buy a smart phone between Rs 15000. which one is the best for all ways…. Samsung Galaxy S Duos, HTC Desire or Karbonn A116
Does it support full hd video recording and full hd playback?
Hello Gogi, good job by you in terms of explanation of specs but I am worried about the colors of handset it has black at front and white at the back panel. Let me know if it is available in one colour, either full white or full black. Pls suggest..
Yaar …micromax now a brand.
Company like micromax present India vs England cricket series
Present Bollywood screen awards
Many world class celebrity events…
Etc…
Micromax is far better then zopo..celkon..wlk..etc..micromax had more then 10 year in India..they know what customer exactly want..in cheap price..
I m always used samsung..htc..before my mmx experience.. m using samsung galaxy s2..but after trying mmx…mmx realy served a good phones in budget..even they have many service station..many tech guru gave handsoff to mmx..
Mmx now brand…i know mmx is to clever they slowly increase cost of the phone..by giving good hardware and features..by that customer not shocked or surprise..
Even other brand may also good..but they need to take time for setup there is good units in India.
Dear frinds hold on for one month ,U will get better option as ZOPO is going to launch there Quard core phone ,& as per build quality Zopo is far better thn MMX or any other Indian brand ,One more thing Spice launch there new Dual core with 1 GB Ram & 2550 MAH battery ,I personally think a Quard core phone with 1 GB ram is same as a Dual core phone with 512 MB Ram,So Wait for some time ..
Sir, any news about next series of a90s?
Some ppl are saying canvas HD has only single sim active….so does it mean it does not have dual standby?……..and could I be able to receive calls on the fone on both sim?
Yes u r right it has only one sim.
Arun.
Micromax Canvas HD A116 will be available by 10/02/13
Gogi will this phone be with dual SIM with duel active like karbonn a7+, coz i heard its not. Plz answer.
Its just a single sim.
Arun.
Guys,
Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos I9082 White available on Snapdeal at Rs 21500.
Hope to see Canvas HD with price on Saholic soon.
MMX there is no need of ADD about CANVAS 2, its already a big hit & 1st choice at 10k.
stop the ADD, cut ur costs for it & dont try it from consumers.
stop a110 production coz dualcore are dead.
Bang again with CANVAS 3 with a price below then 13k, remember make it 5.5″ screen.
if not just bow down to ZOPO.
MT6589 production is much cheaper then 6577 said by MEDIATEK.
So we expected low price below 13k. But it seems demand for new soc is very high, SONY may use it too, so MTK trying to charge more. this issue may be the reason for the late. Besides MMX want to rise as premium brand, forgets its history & reason of its success. So MMX is no longer peoples 1st choice.
Guys i dont think it is with MTK6589 soc (which supports 13mp cam) may be broadcom. So it seems canvas 3 may be more then 17k,if it is then we can say its THE END of MMX coz i think all other brands come with much aggressive LOW price.i belive ZOPO RocK’s 2013 (they must open s.centers ASAP& must keep the price low by 2 to 3k in whatever they launch) This is too early for Q’cores,even at china too they are not launched at stores. Wait till MAY.
Let’s hope for the best and let’s see MMX deliver as commintted !!
Relax Raju. Micromax has clearly told in its press conference that the phone will be priced under 15000/- (Which many including myself think it will be around 12-13K).
The only reason why one would not buy Zopo or any other brand is because they don’t have service centers. Zopo would not launch service centers in Inida because it is CHina based co.
lol…sure MTK6589 supports 13MP max but it doesn’t mean in every device with MTK6589 chipset will come with 13MP.
Hi gogi,
Yesterday i was posting a review regarding my experience about mmx mobile.
but don’t know why you delete my review.If you are not promoter of mmx brand.
I think it is not fair if you give an option to post user review.
And also i am not using any abusing language.
Please again do not remove my comment.
Vivek, you had posted the comment multiple times hence it got deleted automatically also you used a different email this time. I have check the comment its live now.
I do not work for any company and neither promoting any brand, I just suggest the best that is available in the market. Moreover the comment you posted is not related to the post, so in future please post comment related to the topic, I get a lot of comments and the first thing I check is if its related.
R/sir, will u still buy d phone if u came 2 know that it can not play and record full hd songs or videos.
Gogi, Does it really have hsdpa of 42mbps as mentioned by you?
This is mentioned as on the saholic site, not sure until I check the handset, cause you know even on micromax website they at times have incorrect information.
Dear Gogi we need a Full Hands-on review from you & guys u can get some specs info here for now..
mobihubby.com/micromax-launches-a116-canvas-hd-5-inch-android-4-1-smartphone-with-1-2-ghz-quad-core-processor/

Can you compare samsung grand and this micromax mobile?I mean i know that MMX has better screen and processor in this mobile but i want to know does it really effect that much.And as I see the samsung has 3g on both sim and better after sale service.Plus it can record and runs 1080p video.So I want to know which is better.

LOL saholic mentioned ram as 1mb 😐
sir,
when u will do unboxing and full review of this handset
Hello gogi,my budget is 12000 should i wait for this phone or any other quad core as competetors will also launch devices looking to mmx or should i buy andi 4.5h
Not gud buy at 15k. Its didn’t have any sound enhancement like 3d, beat audio, no improvement in camera quality, battery backup is not good.
Sir, we are eagerly for ur review… Because your review is fantastic. You cover all the pros and cons of the system. Hope you will do the same in a116 hd..
Yes Vishnu, am buying this handset.
Hi Gogi,
When this mobile will be available in market.
Gogi Sir, How it is helpful for bussiness purpose a special view I need in this set
Gogi i am not so fond of quad core as it’ll dry phone easily, but is micromax coming up with dual core and 1 gb ram phone? and nice work 🙂
hi all,
can any one explain why it is with 8mp cam instead of 13mp?
Gogi is saholic a good shopping site as I have heard many complaint about it have you shopped at saholic before?
Sayan, I got my A110 from Saholic 🙂
Sayan, I also got my A110 from Saholic & received within 24 hours after place my order through COD. Supereb service. more than satisfy.
Probably among the best sites for buying mobile handsets.
Sayan, Me to has purchased 3 MMX A110 and several other mobiles in past, So my experience says.
Trust saholic blindly
i don’t think there will be any surprise on price front. i remember a110 was also priced at 9999 (announced by MMX) and price never came down below that. MMX has launched quad core cell phone in a hurry as in December itself MTK introduced quad core processors. not many have tested and experienced it in China itself. Lets hope MMX wont mess up like they did in V1 ROM of A110.
Hello mr gogi, this is awesome from micromax any site you can suggest for pre-booking of this phone?
dear Mr. Gogi
Please unbox zopo zp100 or give reviews of it.
Like to hear from you soon.
in waiting .. rakesh
Micromax 90x announced…
sorry sorry…it was just a prediction from igyaantv…:p
Micromax has been trying Experiments in Big Budget Phones which is Great News and This is Just Another Proof. Thanks.
Yes! and it will be good for all of us, if these Big budget phones will be successfull ( which I am sure of ) then only we will get a Butterfly like specs in 15000 – 20000 price range. Keep it up Micromax………………..
Gogi, I think u should buy the next pixel phone instead of this. What you think?
Well, if it sells for 13k my friend buying it immediately. Then will get to use and see if I wanna buy it too.
Anyone wants to sell his/her A110 Canvas 2? Please let me know. I want to buy one. e-mail: vinaykumar5320@yahoo.in
Yes i would like to sell my 1 month old canvas 2 (white) for 9K pl call 9430043144.

I have already sold my Micromax A110 for 9000/- Eagerly waiting to buy this model.
Hi gogi brother its a great news for us. I think MMX will give us a surprise to us by pricing it at Rs.11,999!
