It doesn’t seem to be a phone worth the pricing. 3G and that normal screen are given by other brands at a lesser price, and Videocon itself isn’t a strong competitor in the market yet.
I strictly stay away from those Indian manufactured companies phones since it doesn’t last long. It just last not more than for 2 years because of its parts and so its priced lower comparatively to Nokia or Samsung or Sony Mobile handsets.
