Intex Boss 5.1 Blue & Black
Detailed Review
Display
This smartphone presents a resolution of 320x240 pixels. It would be a tad strenous to stick with the phone as its display size falls below 2.5 inches despite the portability. The display of this phone possesses 262 K colours. An approximate 2.4 inches of diagonal display is sported by Intex Boss 5.1.Battery
This device is credited with the typical Li-Ion battery. The battery of this smartphone that bids 6 hours of talk time on 2G network might be a point of apprehension for heavy users. The battery offers 600 hrs of standby time on 2G network.Camera
Megapixels are not the sole determiners of the quality of your images and videos. Depending on the sensor quality and the smartphone's other applications; you are able to get surprisingly good photography results even with a Yes, 2 megapixels camera.General Features

The Intex Boss 5.1 is absolutely compatible with the microSD, which have the flexibility to help you enhance the internal storage of the device. Only basic utilities can be satisfied with such a low internal memory.

Multimedia FM is a refreshing change from the set loop of your playlists.Performance
The Intex Boss 5.1 possesses a platform that operates at GSM - 900, 1800 GHz.Mr. Ajmera's Review (A business user)
Although the Intex Boss 5.1 might be extremely portable with its small exterior but I don't think it's worth against the cramped keypad it offers and even the functionality isn't worth the struggle. With all the advanced call management features present in the Intex Boss 5.1, it is good choice for business users like me. Bluetooth for file sharing is really not of much use to me, but this feature is really handy when it comes to hands-free calling.Mrs. Iyer's Review (A homemaker)
It looks really small and comfortable for carrying, but I can't type without misspelling the words at least 3-4 times, that's how uncomfortable using this Intex Boss 5.1 is. I won't worry about the other features in the Intex Boss 5.1 as the camera is so average and a strong deterrent for me. The tiny memory of this Intex Boss 5.1 will not even last me a week. I always feel the more the better when it comes to smartphone storage and I would always chose the Intex Boss 5.1 with expandable memory against any other smartphones that are overpriced and overloaded with confusing features.Ishan's Review (A geek)
As a smartphone, the screen size of the Intex Boss 5.1 is quite decent; but too tiny when it comes to gaming or reading. I dunno what good is storage which is insufficient even for regular apps and programs. Extendable memory is always a great storage backup if you have a growing collection of ebooks, games and apps.Technical Specification

Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
The first thing I noticed in the Intex Boss 5.1 was its 2.4 inches display. The screen size of the Intex Boss 5.1 is too cramped and so I can't text that easily on this screen size. The Yes, 2 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 USB connector lets me charge my phone even with my laptop and transfer files. The small 0.000335 GB internal storage of the Intex Boss 5.1 feels quite miserly. I don't understand the use of this storage if it can't contain all my media files.
