Indian smartphone manufacturer Lava launched their budget friendly phone- Lava X3. As mentioned in the headline itself, the phone is priced at Rs. 6499, though it packs quite good specifications, at least on the sheet. Looking at the specs sheet, the phone looks a pretty interesting device.
Lava X3 is powered by a MediaTek Quad-core processor clocked at 1.3 GHz and coupled with 2GB of RAM. It looks pretty good with the amount of RAM provided, however the processor variant remains a mystery. The phone runs Android Lollipop 5.1 out of the box. The phone has 8 GB of storage on board which can be expanded via microSD. Here as well Lava maintains some kinda suspense, don’t know why. The device weighs about 141 grams and packs a 2500mAh battery inside. The phone has dual SIM card slots, however none of them supports 4G LTE. However it has other connectivity options like 3G, Bluetooth v4.0, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Micro-USB.
The phone sports a 5-inch HD (720×1280 pixels) IPS display. In case of camera, the phone sports an 8-megapixel rear autofocus camera with LED flash and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. However, Lava has added some camera features like face detection, face beauty, panorama, motion tracking, and live photo. The Lava X3 is the second handset from the brand in its X Series, earlier was X10 which was priced at Rs. 11,500.
