Lava Iris X1

Fantastic phone by Lava mobiles. I’ve used their phones before so I knew I could trust them when I bought the Lava X1… and I was totally right! I really like this phone and I think that it functions really well. It has kitkat as the operating system which is really good and I think that it functions in a very good way. The phone is quite light and the body is sleek. I love using it!

I recently bought the Lava Iris X1 and boy oh boy is this phone awesome! I have a long commute to office everyday and listening to weird people is not something I like doing and hence I play games on my phone. This phone with its 1.2 GHz quadcore processor backed by 1GB RAM and internal memory of 4GB is very smooth in execution of all the games and software that I download. The android version is 4.4.2 Kit Kat, which is the latest and is compatible with all apps. The 4.5 inch screen that comes with a FWVGA (854*480) and supports 16.7 million colors makes for a great viewing experience.

A very good phone @ this price.
I face only one problem with internal memory...
And I think lava x2 will solve this problem

Hey guys this is an honest review of this phone. I've used it for more than a month and then I sold it on olx and this is my experience:

Lava is an indian company. And as a budget device manufacturing company, they keep in mind the average people while making their devices. The main flaw in the design of these devices is that, THE 4GB INTERNAL STORAGE IS DIVIDED INTO TWO SYSTEM PARTITIONS (1.1GB FOR APPS AND THE OTHER 1.36GB FOR OTHER MASS STORAGE OR AS WHAT THEY CALL "SD CARD").

This is totally un-cool. You buy a device to get more storage and what you get is a low space and a bunch of flaws in the UI. Yes you can insert a memory card. But... after you move your application to the sd card, it simply vanishes after you reboot your phone! AND IT ALWAYS HAPPENED NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO!!! You can check online, you can check on xda devlopers site. Everyone is complaining about this!

Then I tried to use a different memory card. I thought that it may be my card that is causing this trouble. I was using samsung 2GB class 4 memory card. So I switched to a 16GB class 10 (samsung only) and I spent 1200 bucks for it! And you know what happened?? IT NEVER WORKED! I TRIED ROOTING BUT THE KITKAT MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO ROOT! SO I WAS UNABLE TO PERFORM THE ROOT! AND IT SHOWED THAT THE CARD IS CORRUPTED! I replaced the order from snapdeal (their service is just mindblowing. the guy never even asked me for a thing and replaced it without any disputes). But you know what??? SAME RESULT!! I TRIED IT WITH MY CARD READER ON MY LAPTOP. AND IT WORKED PERFECTLY FINE!

I know that many people doesn't have a concern about applications. You just love those iphone-ish looks don't you. WELL, I DID TOO!! And you know what happened? One day my brother dropped it from even less than a meter's height and bamm! The side silver bazzle got scrached and not even that! The back got a little damaged just by one blow! Now no matter what I fit there, back cover or the flip cover, it just won't fit perfectly like before!!

It's a relief that I managed to sell the phone and the guy who bought it didn't notice it. Otherwise my money was totally wasted you know!

So please guys, think twice before buying these sort of "good looking" phones. They're just good for photo shooting and for making and receiving calls. NOTHING ELSE!

I bought this lava iris x1 phone @ Rs 7000.. from my friends shop.. u will never get in this price this phone.. friendship is priceless..
