Nearly two years after his old flagship handset Micromax Canvas upgraded version 5 is launched in the market. Canvas 5 claims to have been the great camera performance. Whether it will be successful in creating their own identity? Let us know.

Look and Design
2.5 D Arc curved display, Micromax Canvas 5 gives a distinct identity. To protect the front panel from scratch it is protected Corning Gorilla Glass 3. There is nothing special in the looks of the handset so that you pay attention. The metal frame feels good to hold in the hands. On top is the 3.5mm headphone socket and the micro-USB port at the bottom.

The last part is the textured plastic cover that can be removed. User can remove the SIM card and microSD card by removing back cover . However, the battery is completely sealed. The back cover is seen extremely cheap. On the rear panel 13 megapixel primary camera with LED flash.

Display
The display is of 5.2 inches and has full-HD IPS panel. It works well in all lighting conditions. The touch response is good and Direct Sunlight Display Except works fine in light condition. The available above the screen. A 5 megapixel camera and LED flash has been on the top of the screen. One way can be said that it is selfie focused handsets.

Overall, the build quality of the phone is good. Excluding back cover  it is very slim and weighs 143 grams. The same can be said that the design is extremely effective.

Specification and software
5 The main specifications are not new canvas. The MT-6753 1.3 GHz octa-core MediaTek chipset, 3 GB RAM, 16 GB of inbuilt storage, Wi-Fi b / g / n and Bluetooth 4.0, FM radio, GPS and USB OTG are given. MicroSD card (up to 32GB) exists to support. It is a dual SIM device.

Lollipop stock version of Android 5.1 runs on the phone. There is a single-layer home screen. Micromax has changed their default display screen. You might have some problems in using it.

This handset also has many pre-installed apps from the phone company, some of which can not be removed. Micromax handsets are also included in the Smart Awake gesture and can be controlled from the Settings app.

Performance
Canvas 5 to ease the daily work plays. General app usage and multitasking is no problem. Intensive 3D games like Dead Trigger can also be easily played. Micromax phones around the logo to be slightly warmer, but said without embarrassment. Call quality is quite good.

Battery
The phone is fully charged, took a little more time. Benchmark test scores were average. But in general use you will not ever bother with this handset.

Music and Video
Canvas 5 by the full-HD video with ease and play. Crisp display the video viewing experience is great. Rear mono speaker is decent voice, but definitely seems a little muffled. The headset with the handset is perceived to be cheap, but the performance is good. The audio quality is very very average, so do not expect too much.

Camera
13-megapixel rear camera surprised us with its performance, especially in daytime macros and landscape. It takes some time to focus. Sometimes you feels that their is the lack of details in the pictures, but the quality is not bad. In low light, the camera is not effective.

User rear and front camera will record video at 1080p resolution. The output is well received, but not the video stabilization is little shaky.

Front camera comes with fixed-focus lens, but it is good to take selfie.

In our video loop test 2900 mAh battery lasted 7 hours 12 minutes. It will be considered average. Phone batteries in common use is a long walk. We used the camera at the battery level falls sharply.

Conclusion
Micromax Canvas 5 is priced at Rs 11,999. The company received the handsets in the future updates of Android 6.0 lollipop is assured. Indeed, in the price range of Rs 15,000 strong claim this handset. Display quality, build, light of day in the performance of the camera and app performance, the most striking feature of this phone. For battery performance, the time taken to charge the handset and the camera's performance in low light, we are not satisfied.

Canvas in the price range compared to 5 Xiaomi MI 4 is natural to come. Given battery life, we recommend that you buy has Xiaomi MI-4.
