Hands-on with the Celkon Win 400 as it officially launches in India for ₹4,979
In a printing event in Hyderabad today, Celkon Mobiles, one of India's largest domestic handset makers, officially launched the Celkon Win 400, the company's first Windows Phone device.
The dual-SIM entry-level Windows Phone device packs a 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 quad-cadre processor with 512 MB RAM. The Win 400 will be available in online and offline stores in ii colour variants – blackness and white – starting today at a price of ₹iv,979 ($80).
Murali Retineni, Executive Director, Celkon Mobiles, had this to say during the launch of the Celkon Win 400:
"We at Celkon believe in products which change the lives of our customers. In continuation of that, we are today pleased to announce the launch of our first Windows-based phone Win 400 which combines the best hardware and a versatile Os to offer a Windows Phone for all."
Design
For a sub-₹five,000 smartphone, you expect mediocrity and 'proficient enough' build quality. On unboxing the Win 400 with a like expectation, I was surprised to find a nice looking, decently built smartphone. It'southward all plastic of grade, but doesn't look too 'inexpensive', and the design and the minimal aesthetics work well for information technology. I used both the colors, and particularly liked the white one.
The 4-inch WVGA display is decent, and although the touch isn't the all-time in upkeep phones, it works quite well and the navigation and scrolls are smoothen.
Hardware
Like all budget Windows Telephone devices, the Win 400 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 one.two GHz Quad-core processor. The RAM is a modest 512MB and the internal retentiveness is only 4GB (expandable using microSD carte du jour), but I wouldn't complain well-nigh those specs in an entry-level phone when more expensive phones with similar specs are available in the marketplace.
For the piffling that I played with the device, I didn't find any lags or delays in scrolls or browsing webpages. Yes, there's a few seconds of loading/resuming when firing new apps or switching to ones in the groundwork, but that is understandable for nigh budget to mid-range devices.
I'thou not certain of the 1500mAh battery, but the visitor asserts that it lasts an unabridged twenty-four hour period easily.
Camera
For nearly budget smartphones, camera is the least of my considerations. Not because I don't go clicking effectually and share my meals on Instagram, but because near of these devices have a shoddy camera. The Win 400 has a decent 5MP automobile-focus snapper at the back though. In proficient light weather (and that's the merely fourth dimension I've got with the device), the photos are bright and colors are true. There's little graininess when you zoom into the photos or see them on a larger display, merely for about social sharing, it works fine. There'south flash as well, just I oasis't tried it merely notwithstanding. At that place's a 1.3MP forepart camera, that is decent for an occasional selfie, but I wouldn't expect much from it.
Software
The Win 400 sports the barebones Windows Telephone 8.1 feel with no start-political party apps built in. There's just one tertiary-political party app (Truecaller) bundled in. Of form, in that location are Microsoft services like the MSN apps, Skype, OneDrive, and OneNote.
Out of the box, the phone has just 1.66GB of costless retentiveness. A memory card is a definite need for most practical purposes.
Summary
It'south early to make a judgement, simply for the price, the Celkon Win 400 looks similar a great device. Information technology'due south moderately powered and has a decent build quality, and looks quite okay – things that make a great affordable telephone. I'll take it for a spin for a few days, and come across how it performs in the real world.
What are your thoughts on the telephone, its design and internals? Allow the states know in the comments.
