No point fidgeting with a screen that poses real difficulty both while watching videos and typing on the cramped keyboard, the portability that is offered by the smaller screen seems futile against the little value it offers with respect to functionality. I primarily rely on phone for emails and calls which are extremely frequent; so such a meagre battery really doesn't cut it for me. Not an hour goes by without my phone ringing, that's why I always go for something like the Celkon Smartron A87 that has all the advanced features to ease the communication. Although I am not so much into file sharing via Bluetooth as I am more of an email guy, but it is quite essential for hands-free calling.Mrs. Iyer's Review (A homemaker)
I hate typing messages on the Celkon Smartron A87 with its tiny keypad as I misspell a single word more than 3 times. A smartphone without a good camera is really not my choice, even if the Celkon Smartron A87 sports other excellent features and fairly makes up. It features enough space for all music, videos and images so that I don't have to delete anything. I always feel the more the better when it comes to smartphone storage and I would always chose the Celkon Smartron A87 with expandable memory against any other smartphones that are overpriced and overloaded with confusing features.Ishan's Review (A geek)
The 4 inch display may be quite decent for a smartphone but I don't like it for my reading or gaming purpose. Gaming is really a turn off on this 1 GHz smartphone; reading is still bearable. An internal RAM this low isn't capable of handling any level of multitasking or gaming. I can download and save all my cool and graphic-heavy games with the 512 GB internal storage of this smartphone and still have enough room for my ebooks and apps. If you have gaming and ebook library as huge as mine, you can never say no to an extendable memory storage. I can't deal with battery warning just within a couple of hours into my gaming session; the Celkon Smartron A87 is quite frustrating in this matter.Technical Specification

Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
The first thing I noticed in the Celkon Smartron A87 was its 4 inches display. The screen size of the Celkon Smartron A87 is too cramped and so I can't text that easily on this screen size. The Yes, 5 MP camera resolution is not that cool. You can easily opt for any other smartphone with a better camera, it might even be cheaper. I don't think this smartphone can click awesome pictures, which by the way is my favourite hobby. The Celkon Smartron A87 never makes me delete videos and photos because of storage issues. I have my entire music library on my smartphone. All my amazing pics, videos, music, apps and books easily fit in my smartphone.
