Micromax Canvas Juice 2 Review

Review of Micromax Canvas Juice 2 at a Glance:-

The Indian brands for standing in completion releasing the specs loaded phones in cheap price; Canvas Juice 2 is the Entry level smartphone from the Micromax with preloaded features viz. Mediatek 1.3 GHz Quad-core processor, 5 inches display, 8 MP/2MP Camera, 8 GB ROM & 32 GB Ext. SD Card support, 2 GB RAM, Dual Micro SIM support and 3000 mAh battery.
Silver colour handset with the black colour strip boundaries is built on the plastic; the design slightly matches the hTC Smartphone. The back cover has matte finish with curve that feels slippery in hands. The Volume rockers and & power button located on right while headphone jack and USB port on bottom. The way this handset is crafted does not make it look like cheap anyway.
Micromax Canvas Juice 2

1.3 GHz Quad Core Processor coupled with 2GB RAM gives mixed results sometime it perform smoothly and sometime it start lagging. To avoid the hanging don’t fill your phone with apps.
The good thing about display is that it has very short bezels. 5 inches display having 720 x 1280 pixels resolutions and 294ppi display density offers a decent quality of the viewing experience. Thanks to its Gorilla glass which is there to protect its display from the unexpected scratches and makes it hard.
The camera sensor in Canvas Juice 2 is not up to the standard as it is 8 MP. Camera works well in bright sunlight while the low lit conditions make the picture foggy or blurred. Capacity to focus on object is slow. Front camera is fine but here also you need some good lightning to take some quality selfies. Many brands now providing 120fps or even 240fps videography while this phone has only 15fps videography which is very low for todays standard; that is the thing we hated.
The battery is 3000 mAh looking like pretty enough in 5 inches phone with 720p resolutions but it performs average. We will get nearly one full day battery backup.

Micromax Canvas Xpress 2 Review: Pros and Cons

Review of Micromax Canvas Xpress 2 at a Glance:-

Now in the market many Brands trying to dominate by cutting their prices in Smartphone having outrageous features in this race Micromax launched Canvas Express 2 loaded with features like Mediatek MT6592M Octa-core processor, 5.0 inches HD display, Dual SIM support, 13 MP camera, 8 GB ROM with 1 GB RAM, 32 GB Expendable memory and 2500 mAh battery.
Micromax Canvas Xpress 2

The Design is nicely sliced with quite thinner design looks good in hand; champagne golden rim around the phone is superb appears metallic, back has matte finish. The volume rocker and power key are on the right edge and Micro USB port is on the bottom along with the speakers and Headphone jack on top.
5.0 inches capacitive Touchscreen is sharp and tempting. It has pleasant viewing angle and sunlight legibility of the screen is quite clear. The display is protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
13 MP camera is struggling to wash the blackness of pictures taken in low light which looks grainy. But some pictures in sufficient lightening looks beautiful. The 2 MP camera is quite good at least can capture satisfactory images.
We are happy with performance of this low budget handset having Mediatek MT6592M 1.4 GHz Octa-core processor. The processor gives Smartphone a good gaming device for most of the Games. The phone is not able to play the heavy games in high graphics.
2500 mAh battery is just below the average. Maximum it can be extended up to 24 hour for a moderate user.

  • With its high hardware configuration Mediatek MT6592 1.7 GHz Cortex-A7 Octa core Processor with 2GB RAM it perform really well. There is no lagging in any application and you can run multiple apps at a time.


Cons of Micromax Canvas

  • 3G is not working in both SIM at same time.

  • You can’t download applications on external SD card.
  • Heating is another issue with this mobile. This phone get heated within 20-30 min in upper part while using camera, playing games, using WiFi and internet but it is within acceptable range.
  • In 13MP the performance of camera is especially disappointing for low light. The sound quality in video recordings is also on lower side.

Unknown applications appear and ask for installation-
    Just disable unwanted apps and use clean master

    Battery Heating Issue-
      Use battery doctor to know which application is using your battery power or you can check Solution for Android Smartphone heating issue.

      Camera quality enhancement-
        Use third party apps such as Camera 360

        Why to buy and Final words about Micromax Canvas Nitro-

        The Micromax Canvas Nitro A310 is good for people looking for a decent handset from Micromax under 13 K INR. If you are expecting a good camera quality and long battery life then I will not recommend you this phone but keep in mind for outdoor photography it produces decent quality picture and for moderate user it gives full day batter backup.

              This phone has not-conventional design, heavy camera both the side with good hardware and software configuration. Camera is main attraction of this phone but in low light condition it is not able to capture high quality images while the outdoor pictures are great. I will not refer this phone to those people who wish to have a long battery backup; but this problem can be tackled by carrying a power bank with you. All the other features are good in the handset as its price range.
