As we earlier reported, Micromax has officially launched the Micromax Canvas Knight A350 in India after a series of teasers and the price tag of 19,999 INR is significantly lower than what we had expected. Canvas Knight A350 is also the first smartphone with 2 GHz MT6592T Processor which boast of some impressive performance scores on MediaTek website.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. Rahul Sharma, Co-Founder, Micromax said, “At Micromax, we have always believed that real innovations are a direct result of the consumers’ needs, and customer centricity has to be at the core of developing products. Canvas Knight is another milestone for Micromax to bring the best combination of technology, style and affordability for the masses.” He further added, “With the launch of Canvas Knight, our first Octa-Core smartphone, we have yet again raised the bar of affordable innovation in the country”.
The display is 5 inches in size and features Full HD 1080p resolution and is manufactured by world reknown Sharp Technologies. The MT6592T true octa core processor clocked at 2 GHz and backed by 2 GB RAM and ARM Mali450 GPU is quite capable of handling the pixel density of 441 ppi. The internal storage of 32 GB is also quite impressive at this price range.
The primary camera has a 16 MP sensor with omnivison camera chip sensor and M8 largan lens. Front camera is also equipped with a 8 MP sensor for high quality video chatting. For music lovers, Micromax has provided with Yamaha music amplifier for sufficient loudness.
The battery capacity of 2350 mAh is the only thing which doesn’t match the hardware prowess. Micromax has not yet specified how much talk time you could squeeze out of it. Preloaded stuff includes BBM, Hike, M!security, truecaller, games like RealSteel WRB, Where’s My Perry and Where’s My Water and more. Press release doesn’t mention body dimensions, but it is expected to be only 7.3 mm thick.
Micromax has managed to keep the price right, which makes this phone a very viable option in the mid range price segment. Canvas Knight would be exclusively retailed from Micromax official website from 05th March 2014 in 3 colors – Black, White& Gold and Black & Gold.
