The company has finally unveiled the Micromax Canvas 4 at a launch event that has been dragging on for ages, and has come under a lot of criticism from many watchers on the company’s official Facebook Page.
It was revealed by the company that it took a total of 11,500 pre-bookings for the device with 4,000 made inside the first 24 hours and was with none of the specs or pricing officially known, but it has disappointed many that have seen the specs that include a 5-inch HD IPS display where many were hoping for a Full HD display.
The Micromax Canvas 4 is priced at Rs. 17,999 and will be available from this weekend, and other specifications of the device include a 1.2GHz quad core processor with 1GB of RAM. Camera wise there is a 13-meagpixel rear facing shooter along with a 5-megapixel front facer. There is 16GB of onboard storage that is expandable by a further 32GB via microSD card, and it will be running the Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean operating system.
A number of features were showcased at the event that included being able to unlock the handset by blowing at it and two videos can be played on the device at the same time. The main camera has a five lens setup along with optical image stabilisation that is capable of 1080p video capture.
The smartphone is built from anodized aluminium that will give the device a premium feel and you even get a free flip cover in the box, and the handset also features gesture controls similar to the Samsung Galaxy S4 for watching videos or other options.

NOT AT ALL! MICROMAX GAME IS OVER.
THEY LOST THE MARKET. THE CAN IMPROVE THE PRICE BUT WITH EXPECTED SPEC.
Sadden by the launch, should have full HD display, 3000Mah Battery life and price around 16K. I shall have to cancel my pre-booked order.
It is similar to its previous version Canvas HD A116 except, camera resolution(13MP> 8MP) and memory(16GB> 4GB). They kept everything same only price tag has increased. Their created hype is fussed. This show how they are technically competent on phone spec. They just have given new name of “Blue Life One” and brought the phone to India from China. There is no innovation in this model. I will say go for Micromax Canvas HD A116 and put a 32 GB ram into it and update its firmware to Android 4.2.1 (it is very easy to upgrade, no need to go to service center). Download MX Player, DicePlayer from Google Play for HD Video Player and “Pixel Media Server” and “Pixel Media Controller” app for DLNA Connectivity. Micromax made us disappointed with this innovation!!!
I have cancelled my order , but I did not get any message when my money would be return or my order is cancelled.
I cancelled my oreder too….I was expecting 2GB RAM,3200MAH battery,full HD display….
