Karbonn released their new phone named as A27 which is placed at pretty lower price of 8790 INR available from Naaptol, The specifications are also decent which are available in all the phone priced at 10k INR by other Chinese mobile manufacturers. The price factor may give this phone some edge over the other having the same specs and placed higher in the price range. The best is that most of the phones in this range have compromised on the mobile OS version but this one has Jellybeans on it.
It has a dual-core Mediatek processor which his 1.2 GHz and accompanied by 512MB RAM, this is sufficient to run the bunch of applications on the phone smoothly, but you cannot expect to play heavy games on this phone. Apart from this, the screen size has been diminished from the conventional 5 inches to 4.3 inches (which is exactly equal to the screen size of Sony Xperia Z). The display has capacity touch with IPS qHD display.
