There ara a couple of Indians brands that have tried their hands at getting an affordable Android device for the Indian junta and Micromax is one of them. The company had recently launched the Micromax Andro A60 and now it has tried to keep the momentum going with its Micromax Bling2 A55.
As the name suggests, Micromax Bling 2 is successor to Micromax Bling, which was a jewel studded device targeted at the fairer sex. This new device too has the same set of target audience but it does not have the cubical swivel QWERTY keypad form factor and is a bar phone accenuated by soft and smooth curves.It's 2.8 inch capacitive display screen provides an average experience to its users.
Micromax Bling 2 A55 is Dual SIM (GSM + GSM Device) that runs on Android 2.2 Froyo.Also,it support 3G on both the SIMs to help one get a better browsing speed and experience.Unfortunately,the handset does not support video calling, which can prove to be an add on for a device like this. There is a 699 MHz processor thrown in to help consumers get pretty smooth experience out of this handset at this price point. The phone's Dual SIM is basically dual standby so one SIM appears to be off in case the other one has an active call running on it.
The Bling 2 has a 3.0 megapixel camera that takes average pictures.Another disadvantage is that it has a fixed focus camera. Lack of flash makes low light imagery even more difficult. Other onscreen settings include the option of zoom in/out, white balance and stone location on/off.
Micromaz Bling 2 A55 priced at Rs 8,990. Other option could be Samsung Galaxy Pop(GSM) priced at Rs 8,700 and LG Optimus Me P350 casting Rs 8,400.
