Apart from efficient and advanced call management, I'd also like my smartphone to be able to perform functions like Document Viewer, Kingsoft, Excel and much more, just like the Micromax Canvas Turbo A250. This smartphone size is anytime recommended by me even there might be a slight struggle in typing on small keypad; it is duly compensated with the ease of one-hand usage and portability. With all the advanced call management features present in the Micromax Canvas Turbo A250, 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. Even if my travel routes, both business and pleasure, are very much known to me I'd still like the reassurance from the GPS navigation on my phone.Mrs. Iyer's Review (A homemaker)
The alphabets on the QWERTY keypad are a bit congested, but the entire size of this Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 is what I like the most. Video recording is a must on my phone, I just love recording and capturing the innocence of cake cutting or the craziness of a dinner party. I won't worry about the other features in the Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 as the camera is so average and a strong deterrent for me.Ishan's Review (A geek)

Although I would recommend a higher frequency for gaming, the 1.5 GHz is not that bad an option. Swift loading and overall smooth performance is every gamer's dream; and it comes true when you get the Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 that packs in quad core processor. The Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 manages heavy apps simultaneously and also delivers a smooth performance with my graphic-intensive games.

Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
The first thing I noticed in the Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 was its 5 inches display. The Micromax Canvas Turbo A250 has an amazing screen size, I feel. I can type only with one hand and can easily stick it in denim pockets. Though, I personally love my videos on a large screen. The Yes, 13 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. Recently, I can't imagine life without selfies, and hence the secondary camera. Clicking selfies and groupies is a favourite pastime for me and my friends. It's sometimes difficult to click selfies and groupies with the main camera, so always go for smartphones with good secondary camera. I'd like my smartphone to do all my tasks simultaneously not just perform basic functions like browsing, messaging and emails. And I won't depend upon 2G networks for that. I keep checking the GPS for new locations and traffic updates. The USB connector lets me charge my phone even with my laptop and transfer files. Lower internal storage like 16 GB makes me chose which movies, music, images and videos to keep or delete from your phone. A larger internal storage suits me more than average internal memory as I hate deleting my smartphone content due to memory issues.
