Call it bizarre though when a battery goes low, a content settings change automatically into Hindi and one has to go behind to settings to scold it behind to English. Maybe some tweaking is what is compulsory in arriving handsets.

For a rest, during Rs 251, it is indeed a basic-level, organic device that even defies “affordability” and can assistance a masses change to smartphones from simple underline phones.

Meanwhile, consider what else can we squeeze in Rs 251.
