Micromax Funbook $130 Budget Tablet Review
Micromax Funbook is no doubt an ultimate tab solution with the power of Android 4.0 ICS especially in the Indian tablet market where the price of Android 2.2 and 2.3 based tablet are quite high. It is giving tough competition to the budget tablets like HCL, Zync and iberry.
Look and Feel
On the first look f+Funbook seems to be quite decent and keeping the price in mind, it offer the look what it should be. The device is available in grey plastic frame with matte finish and has the black glossy capacitive touch display.
It equips 7 inches of capacitive touch display which allows the resolution of 480×800 and also has 0.3 MP camera and three physical buttons for menu, home and back. There is no rear camera which means you will definitely miss out the best picture quality from this tab and would only have to compromise with the 0.3 MP front camera which can only provide you the low resolution pics.
Features and Performance
Micromax funbook comes with Android 4.0 ICS which offers cool user experience and under the hood you will find the power of 1.22 GHz processor which is supported by 512MB RAM which direct the users toward the soothing and smooth performance. The touch screen has the capacitive nature and it allows you to have a soothing interaction without even the stylus.
Micromax funbook offer the 1080p video playback and also support the .mp4 format, however the video recording is not as effective as other tab camera and you cannot imagine much with the low resolution camera.
For internet access you can connect the USB dongle with the mini USB port and which will enable you to enjoy the experience of 3G on the 7 inch tablet.
Most importantly, battery is powered by 2800 mAh battery which allows you to easily fetch the play time of 3 to 5 hrs; however the time varies depending upon the usages of the application and activities.
Apart from this, you can access the google play to download the free and the paid apps along with the movies, ebooks, games and lots more.
Final Verdict
Well frankly speaking I am impressed with this low-budget wonder based on Android ICS from Micromax, however there are lots many flaws which you need to accept, but still as a user point of view, at just RS. 6499, Micromax Funbook offers you a great value which you might be looking for.
