It doesn’t attract finger greasily readily. Unlike Yureka, you can not calibrate colors in Yuphoria from settings. Double tap to wake and double tap to sleep options are available in settings.

Conclusion
Yuphoria is a sturdy device, and yes, for a price of 6,999 INR, it is a great deal. It’s major strength will be the performance and software it offers for the price.
hey there, i have a doubt, Is the Battery Li-ion or Li-Polymer ?
is the battery Li-Ion or Li-Polymer on the Yuphoria ???
Dear DEEPAK what about multiuser in lolipop and ambient display. And display type somewhere its saying tft some where LCD can you please confirm it
Multiuser support is there. Ambient display is not there. Display looks like IPS LCD to my eyes.
The display is mentioned as IPS TFT, but technically IPS LCD displays are part of TFT LCD displays only, though generally non IPS LCD displays are termed TFT LCD.
Either ways, viewing angles are good, though as i have mentioned, colors are on the warmer side, which is not necessarily a bad thing. first time users won’t notice any difference
It is lithium Polymer battery, i have corrected in specs
USB OTG is supported but it’s not available due to a known bug in CM12. Possibly an update could fix it.
In terms of display, rear camera, speaker which one is best redmi 2 or yuphoria?
display on redmi 2 is better, though it is slightly smaller. Rear camera on Redmi 2 is better. Front camera on both is good. Yu speaker seems louder, though i have not tested speakers side by side yet. Redmi 2 speaker is pretty good too.
OK. Thanks a lot
I loved the phone totally the features and design is too classy 🙂
Yuphoria better buy
how did you get to know … is it a wage guess
Deepak, i would like to know about the call quality of this phone? as rest of the specs looks awesome!
If notification led is not there , the how does o comes to know abt a miss call or msg
Yuphoria definitely has a lot to offer. Amazing stuff 🙂
redmi 2 has 1gb ram and 8 gb internal… and has kitkat running… 3 times more radiation
hey what is the SAR Value of the YUphoria ?
You never know tht… it may or may not 🙁 as the yureka sports CM12 too but it supports OTG…
what about the warranty
Can Someone tell me about the screen protector…….is it good???
what you think is better yuphoria or lenovo a7000?
can you please review about the heating and battery, ’cause they were the main concerns for yu yureka and i had to sell it ultimately. Irrespective of quick charge making up for the 7 hrs talk time as mentioned by company,how is going to hold a day when using moderately? (music streaming apps,gaming for an hr tops, camera max 30 min,calling 2-3 hrs,whatsapp etc for 2 hrs max)
furthermore sir, can you please review about the heating(gaming and while casually texting) and battery, ’cause they were the main concerns for yu yureka and i had to sell it ultimately. Irrespective of quick charge making up for the 7 hrs talk time as mentioned by company,how is going to hold a day when using moderately? (music streaming apps,gaming for an hr tops, camera max 30 min,calling 2-3 hrs,whatsapp etc for 2 hrs max)

when u r going to upload full review of yuphoria?
yureka best ya yuphoria
u got a 5inch screen and less thn 1 sec to turn it on :/
NO, My frnd owns yureka… after the lollipop update… it’s a piece of crap… lags sometimes
Awesomely written Deepak. Exact info which i was looking for.. Great work.. !!!
any results on battery backup of yuphoria
Its average. Battery is draining fast with HD videos and gaming
Im asking how much time it can hold like 6 hours of 4g etc
heating is not an issue here, but battery performance is average at best.
we didn’t face any issue with call quality so far
in my opinion Lenovo A7000
in 30 minutes of moderate gaming, batter depleted by 13 percent. 22 minutes of HD video it reduced by 11 percent. Standby times seem good so far. haven’t tested 4G as we don’t have 4G coverage in our area
Yuphoria call volume when we are in traffic it’s audible or not pls replay me
thanks
can we use strontium sdhc card on yuphoria ???
i think the lollipop has the so called on screen function. the whole screen blinks in for the notifications na?! (Atleast my Moto E 1st gen does ):p
so no led light required!
That is specific to motorola
hi deepak which one would you consider better in terms of camera, performance and battery backup between yuphoria and a6000 plus?
Lenovo A6000 Plus
heyy which is the best smartphone in terms of battery life yuphoria, redmi 2, lenovo a6ooo+,,..????
will yuphoria get the otg support update or not
Does it look fashionable ?
Hi , I have a few questions .
1) How is the audio output via these headphones and a better set of headphones , such as say skullcandy or senheiser ?? I saw some saying that the output is not quite good , even with good headphones . The sound seems monophonic when listening to at high volumes .
2) Does the proximity sensor have a bug ? Many reviewers report that the sensor doesnot work correctly .
3) How do macro shots look — does the subject get focussed right ? For example , can the petals of a flowers be differentiated in a macro shot ?
4) Does the keyboard lag ?
5) How clear is the audio via the loudspeaker ?
Hope someone answers these .
Sir is there any issues with the proximity sensor with this phone…if it is there sir please suggest any possible ways to fix this…..
That’s subjective. I think yes, i didn’t like it much the first time i saw it, but it grows on you.. kind of

I have problem my icon of by phone is appering big please help
try this –
Long press on the screen –> You will get the three option for background setting –> Go to “Grid Size” –> Change it according to your preference (Change it to “COMFORTABLE”) –> Also Scroll Down and Switch off “Larger Icon”.
If that does not work for you then you may need to get the third party UI launcher like Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher. Check the below article on how to install the launcher and customize your icon and UI
