Apart from efficient and advanced call management, I'd also like my smartphone to be able to perform functions like Document Viewer, Pushmail (Mail for Exchange) and much more, just like the Videocon A45. 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 Videocon A45, 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 Videocon A45 is what I like the most. I won't worry about the other features in the Videocon A45 as the camera is so average and a strong deterrent for me. The tiny memory of this Videocon A45 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 Videocon A45 with expandable memory against any other smartphones that are overpriced and overloaded with confusing features.Ishan's Review (A geek)
The display of this smartphone seems to be very well-calibrated and it keeps me reeled in with my gaming and reading. Reading is still fine, but gaming on a 1 GHz smartphone is really dreadful. Even the lowest graphics games need RAM higher than this. 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 Videocon A45 was its 5 inches display. The Videocon A45 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, 3.2 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. 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. The small 0.512 GB internal storage of the Videocon A45 feels quite miserly. I don't understand the use of this storage if it can't contain all my media files.
