Expert review by : Michael Sawh (trustedreviews.com)
The Karbonn Sparkle V is one of the first handsets to launch under Google's Android One program. Aimed at emerging markets, the Sparkle V, Micromax Canvas A1 and Spice Dream UNO all share the same specs and promise a stock Android OS experience.
Dual-SIM card support ; Runs stock Android operating system ; microSD card support ; Decent speaker quality
Slightly laggy performance ; Need MicroSD card to store photos
Expert review by : Ashok Pandey (pcquest.com)
Karbonn also joins the race of producing affordable yet excellent smartphones in the Indian market. The Sparkle V is an Android One smartphone which has the same hardware configuration as Micromax Canvas A1. It looks pretty cool and easily fits
Smooth performer, Android updates, comfortable in hands, battery backup
Display, camera
With the modest piece of hardware and promise of latest updates, it becomes a good choice under the budget.
