Review : Micromax q5
It has been More than Three months that i have using This Phone Thought to write a review(sorry for being late guys ).
Design and Build Quality
Despite being heavy (very heavy infact) its feels and fits in hand perfectly..with the silicon cover its perfect. The cover gives excellent grip which
is very usefull for this fone as it is very heavy..
At this cost it feels like u own a premium fone .The guys at micromaz have done great job designing and making this phone and u notice it at first glance .
the keypad is perfectly placed and keyfeed back is just awesome. Even for bigger fingers there would be no problem during typing.Though it takes time to
get adjusted , but once u get hold of the keys its just breeze. Back light for keyboard also is quite good.
The track ball is quite good but whenever u use u get little worried about its life time.
theirs shortcut keys to facebook which opens to a application Which is quite wonderfull (application) and another shortcut key to Msn messenger (which
i think is unnecessary , they rather should have included shortcut key to yahoo mes ).
The build quality as i say again is quite good . The back battery cover which like a thin alluminium plate is little awkward to insert and remove though it feels good.
Call Quality
In call volume is quite loud and no problem at all..
and all basic in call features are present.
Screen
Screen as u expect isnt of great though meets the requirements . sunlight visibility is below average .
veiwing screen from side angles is quite dificcult. While watching vidoes unless ur staright looking in to screen , it glares (darks) out alot.
its a QVGA screen. which in other words is a genral 2.2 inch screen rotated for widescreen experience , It serves its purpose .
Video watcing for single person at good angle is Quite good.
Connectivity
It has GPRS, HSCSD, EDGE, micro-USB and Bluetooth
With in built opera , yahoo , msn , google talk and ebuddy apps which serve their purpose to top level , Though in opera u cant type a web address
in address toolbar..Its a bug and it hasnt been fixed so u have to search or use messg box..its irritating but not so bad.
net speeds as it has EDGE are not that bad and u see no connections drops during chatting in messengers
Performance
Unlike the other Java os'es Its blazing Fast Thx to Track ball .
The menu is well layed , no problem accessing anything and . When u hit space key at Home screen u get a shortcuts to all apps which u can Modify.
Camera
Nothing to talk about it here its below paar..

Music
This is something to talk about
As The phone has Yamaha Amplifier the Music is a treat , The music is a real plus for this phone..the bundled earphones serves it purpose quite good .
But if u pair this phone with good earphones it'll be magic.
Though music player could have been improved with pay-list and etc..
it has some default equalizer setups and other basic music customization features.
Battery Life
q5 has 1000mAh battery
With 10 calls 2-3 hours of music and 1 hour of internet usage daily
it keeps going to 2.5 days which is not a joke..
[b]Conclusion[b/]
Its great phone for sms, Chating addicts with great music and video playing capabilites
It doesn't feel cheap or Chinese .Though its strictly Not for Power users...
