Videocon has come up with a new smartphone called Infinium Z50 Nova that is priced attractively in the entry level market segment for a pricing of Rs 5,999. The smartphone is available officially from Flipkart and comes with reasonable pricing for its specifications. Here is a quick review on the Videocon smartphone for those who are interested in it.
Camera and Internal Storage
Videocon has included an 8 MP auto focus rear shooter alongside LED flash and Sony Exmor R sensor for an enhanced photography performance. This decent primary camera is accompanied by a 2 MP front facing selfie camera that can enable video conferencing and snapping self portrait shots respectively. Imaging wise, the handset appears to be decent enough for its pricing and many smartphones have started coming up with similar aspects making this one a better one in this department.
Internal storage is standard at 8 GB and there is support for expandable storage space up to 32 GB using a micro SD card slot onboard. These storage aspects are undoubtedly average and we do not have any issue in this regard.
Processor and Battery
At the core of the Videocon Infinium Z50 Nova operates a quad core MediaTek MT6582 processor ticking at 1.3 GHz clock speed. We have seen this processor in several entry-level and mid-range smartphones and it is known to render moderate performance. This processor is aided by Mali 400 graphics unit and 1 GB of RAM for moderate graphic handling and multitasking that would be expected from a device of this pricing.
An average 1,900 mAh battery powers the smartphone from within and though the exact backup delivered by it is not known we believe it should last for moderate hours under mixed usage.
Display and Features
The handset is bestowed with a 5 inch display that carries a qHD screen resolution of 960×540 pixels. Of course, this screen is average and it would be usable enough for moderate tasks without much hassle. Basically, this display will be great for an entry level smartphone with basic aspects.
Fueled by Android 4.4 KitKat operating system, the Videocon Infinium Z50 Nova is given standard connectivity aspects including 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and dual SIM functionality.
Comparison
The Videocon Infinium Z50 Nova would be a rival to the others in its class including Huawei Honor Holly, Xiaomi Redmi 1S, Moto E and Android One smartphones.
