Micromax Canvas 4 A210 Pros and Cons
Pros:
- HD screen with Gorilla glass protection
- Quad core processor
- Full HD 1080P recording
Cons:
- 2000 mAH battery sounds low to phablet
- Screen size is a bit lower than other Phablets
Conclusion: For me, both the phones are just boosting their HD screen and 13 MP camera. They do not elevate the quality of experience to “Next level” they are just MicroMax Canvas HD with a better camera. But still, when I compare Karbonn Titanium S9 with Micromax canvas 4 then I would choose Canvas 4. It has a gorilla glass protection and HD video recording. Canvas HD has a smaller screen but of better density and quality, 2000 mAh battery is a bit low for this size phablet but still its decent. Pricing decides the quantity of sales and thus Canvas 4 will surely triumph over Titanium S9.
Suggestion: If you are really looking for big screen and have some money to spare better choose Ascend Mate or Xperia ZR. If you want an awesome camera go for Xperia ZR which sports a 13 MP camera with full HD video recording. Ascend mate has some cool features packed into it but you will still miss Dual SIM functionality.
