Spice M-5160
Detailed Review
Display
The display sported by Spice M-5160 measures about 2 inches. It would be a tad strenous to use the phone as its display size falls below 2.5 inches despite the portability.Battery
The battery of this smartphone that bids 5 hours of talk time on 2G network might be a concern area for heavy users. The standby time offered is nearly 200 hrs on 2G network.Camera
As much fun it might be to click pictures, video recording is equally great. The kind of pictures and videos your camera produces does not depend only on megapixels. Depending on the sensor quality and the smartphone's other applications; you can get surprisingly good photography results even with a Yes, 0.3 megapixels camera.General Features

A small device like this might neatly fit in my pockets, but that's all it can and nothing much with the cramped screen size of 2 inches. With my kind of usage and lifestyle neither will the battery last me decent hours, nor can I provide it with charging as and when needed. I more than often go for efficient devices like the as it present me with a robust call management; as I am hardly ever off my phone. Bluetooth in my smartphone is essential more for hands-free calling than file sharing.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 Spice M-5160 is. 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 Spice M-5160 as the camera is so average and a strong deterrent for me. I always feel the more the better when it comes to smartphone storage and I would always chose the Spice M-5160 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 Spice M-5160 is quite decent; but too tiny when it comes to gaming or reading. Extendable memory is always a great storage backup if you have a growing collection of ebooks, games and apps. I'd like my smartphone battery to at least last me an intensive gaming session that goes on for 3-4 hours without battery warnings; the Spice M-5160 doesn't live up to it.Technical Specification

Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
For me the 2 inches display is the first thing I noticed in the Spice M-5160. I love texting and all my friends too prefer texting over talking, so I find the screen size of the Spice M-5160 very cramped. Yes, 0.3 MP is not that great camera resolution. There are so many smartphones with better megapixels sometimes even cheaper than this phone. I love clicking pictures with my smartphone and this one doesn't seem up for it.
