If
your liking lies in size, then you don’t need to look east or west, an
indigenous product is here to satiate your needs(and greed as well) - KarbonnA30, which happens to be the biggest phablet in the world at the present
moment, and will remain the same in the foreseeable future. The phone is as
good as it is big. Come let’s examine the visceral specifications of the AndroidICS powered handset.
Unboxing
First
and the most important aspect of the handset is its display size, which is 5.9
inches; the screen is a TFT LCD one with 800x480p pixel resolution. The
capacitive touch of the handset is state of art and the navigation from one
page to another is a joyful ride altogether. A30 is quite able to play full
1080p HD videos.
Moving
towards the look and feel segment of the handset, it seems a little heavy for
your liking and bezels might also seem a little redundant, but for a device as
big as A30, these things go pretty inconspicuously. Size and weight go in
tandem.
In
the camera segment, the Karbonn A30 has two cameras on offer, an 8MP camera on
the posterior, supported by an LED flash and a 1.3MP camera on the front side
of the body for video chat and self portrait.
Some specimen images and videos given below will speak for the quality
of camera.

Moving
towards the connectivity section of the handset, it has almost everything that
an Indian user might think of, all the way from GPRS, EDGE, HSPA(3G), Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, and USB. The interesting thing is Wi-Fi is capable of working as
Wi-Fi hot spot and USB as USB modem.
In
the storage capacity, the handset has a 2GB of onboard storage, which can
be furthered till 32GB via a microSD card. Ample quite ample.
Talking
about the CPU and RAM, the Karbonn A30 has a 1GHz Cortex A9 dual core
processor, well complimented by a 512MB RAM. So, no need to worry about the
performance speed of the machine.
The
handset has G-sensor, Proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor. Then, there
are a lot of pre-installed apps like Paytm, ET, nexGTV(live TV), Gmail, Gtalk,
Yahoo messenger, WhatsApp, YouTube, TOI, Wechat, Saavn music, Kingsoft office
etc. . Then there is GPS and Google maps as well.
