 "Karbonn's Titanium Mach Two - a looker but short on performance")
Karbonn's Titanium Mach Two comes with a five-inch HD screen and Gorilla Glass 3 on both sides. Priced at Rs 11,290, this one is a looker. A slim body and light weight (112g) add to its merits.
A closer look, however, reveals its loopholes. There is a clear resemblance with the iPhone 6. The apps are cluttered and look more animated than life-like. The touch is also not the best one will see in this price range.
Both the back and front cameras are eight-megapixel, a boon for the selfie-obsessed generation. But picture quality tends to be grainy, especially with the back camera.
The biggest issue, however, is its 1,900mAh battery. Considering it is an Android, the phone's battery lasts only four to six hours. The Moto G (second gen) at around Rs 11,000 offers a better display and battery life.
The Titanium Mach Two falls short of becoming an all-purpose smartphone easy on the wallet, though it looks gorgeous.
