After Micromax Canvas Nitro A310, the domestic manufacturer is all set to launch its elder sibling, Micromax Canvas 4 Plus A315. Images and details of this upcoming smartphones have been leaked by folks at Desigadgets, and this implies an imminent launch.
If leaks are to be believed, Micromax is using an AMOLED display for the first time and this will make a difference. The 5 inch AMOLED display features 720p HD resolution amounting to 294 ppi.
AMOLED displays, conventionally seen in Samsung high end phones are characterized with excellent blacks, high contrast and oversaturated colors. The whites however aren’t superior to IPS LCD panels. This makes AMOLED displays quite apt for watching videos and other multimedia content. If you keep a dark background, it will also help save battery.
The CPU is same MT6592 octa core clocked at 1.7 GHz, but compared to Canvas Nitro, RAM has been reduced to 1 GB. Internal storage is 16 GB and it hasn’t been specified if this can be expanded.
There is a 13 MP rear camera and 5 MP front shooter combination and most likely it’s the same camera module used in Canvas Nitro and you can expect similar photography experience. Software is latest Android 4.4.4 Kitkat.
Battery capacity was a refreshing change in Micromax Canvas Nitro, but Micromax has apparently rolled back to a 2000 mAh battery for Canvas 4 Plus. This however doesn’t essentially mean that battery backup will suffer. Perhaps you can count on AMOLED display for some battery saving.
According to import data, Micromax has already imported 8,500 units in India and we can expect official announcement very soon. The retailer reveals that the MRP price is 17,400 and the best buy price will be 16,500 INR. Will you be willing to pat 4k extra for the AMOLED display in place of IPS LCD? Let us know in the comment section below.
