By Sagnik Chatterjeeon
Purchased this phone for my father as a second phone. Pretty good phone. I like the display. Sound is super loud. Mobile browser is rubbish but the thing is they provide opera mini 4 as an app and it works brilliantly. The reason why i did not exchange my samsung 3310i with my father for the micromax was that the music player doesn't categorise the songs into albums, artists, most played, most recently added etc. Even the songs in the list do not appear alphabetically. Another problem is though the phone has great wallpapers, the theme cannot be change.
Thing is, this is the first non samsung/ motorola in the family and I never knew you can provide so much for 2400 bucks. Kudos to Micromax.
Two problem with X285 found
By Kapil Goyalon
1. I bought this phone with the sole purpose of Wireless FM feature. But same does not work at all places. Since this phone does not have antenna, FM is not clear inside house or closed places.
2. Font size is not that big. Moreover, by the time you are pushing keys of your friend mobile number (10 digits), the font size become so small, that i fail to see the number pressed. Wondering, why micromax did not choose to go to second line, and rather opted to reduce the font size.
Since, i bought this phone for my father (age 58+), the 2 features, i was looking forward to were wireless FM and bigger font .. i am dissappointed by my puchase.
VERY GOOD HANDSET
By Ameet Raneon
micromax x285 a superb cell for daily use.. i had not brot the handset from flipkart.had bought it on local shop. it is up to my expectations.
music volume is quiet loud. u can hear other persons voice very clearly who is talkin to u on d phn. battery life is excellent. easy to operate. gud in capturing network signals.
it would have been awsum if the camera would a bit more clear photos.
above all..its an excellent handset.. 9.5/10
Ever thought of usability aspect of a mobile phone
By Ashutosh Kumaron
Awsome !! Full value for money !!
Loudest speaker, camera, bluetooth, torch, audio/video player and recorder in such a low price with acceptable quality.
Sound clarity in earpiece and loudspeaker are excellent. Signal reception in lifts also is good. I never dropped a call. Battery backup is good.
I am using this mobile for more than 2 years now. I discovered some of the unique features in terms of usability which most of the other (high end) mobiles are lacking.
1. Start typing a name (first or last) assuming dictionary on. You will see all the possible matches in your contact list. Select anyone and call. Fastest way of finding a contact to call.
2. While typing SMS, keep dictionary on (switch by # key on bottom right). When you type a word, and it is predicted, press middle button. If you intended to type a number, press up arrow button. While sending SMS, add recipient from phonebook, type only initials of name and you find it directly.
3. In the music player, number keys change the audio settings. Up arrow key changes the repeat/shuffle setting. Volume is controlled by * and # keys.
4. For switching torch, long press 0 key.
5. Press middle button, or arrow keys for more shortcuts. All shortcut keys can be customized.
6. While in call, Middle button will switch on loud speaker, cancel button is for mute. Green call button is for hold/unhold.
7. While reading SMS, left and right arrows switch between previous and next SMS. This is not available in most of the the mobiles.
Cons:
Level 1 volume is louder than another mobile's loudest one. Listening music indoor with speaker feels loud. Earphones are bad quality. Use any other ones like Sony, and listen to the booming sound.
Overall its a great phone you can rely upon.
Good phone in its price!!
By Priyam Mondalon
i have buyed this phone from the local shop,but about this phone i want to tell that its music quality is good and very much loud,although loud sound breaks the good quality of music but its camera is fine, and screen is 2.4 inch with dual sim support
So if you have this budget...get it one now!!
Value For Money Phone
By Vikas Sindheron
If you're looking for a cheap but durable dual sim phone then i would suggest you to go by this handset.Earlier i had Micromax q5fb but it was one of the worst phone that i ever bought.I was in doubt for buying another Micromax phone but x285 was better and beyond my expectations.
Pros :
1. Sound Clarity is awesome
2. Battery Backup is Good
3. Can Watch AVI videos too
4. Message Lock,Contact list lock,Gallery Lock.
CONS :
1. Internal Memory is just 250 KB
2. Keypad is small and it makes harder to type fast.
