Comparisons Featuring Karbonn A30
Short Review
- The Karbonn A30 features a large 5.9-inch TFT display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 158 ppi.
- Its design is bulky, measuring 166 x 91 x 10.7 mm and weighing 280 grams, which may be cumbersome for some users.
- Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.0 GHz CPU and 4GB of RAM, providing basic multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera is 8 MP with autofocus, while the front camera is limited to 1.3 MP, suitable for basic selfies.
- The 2500 mAh battery offers standard usage but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software is outdated compared to current standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer.
- The absence of HDR and stereo speakers may limit the multimedia experience.
- Overall, the Karbonn A30 is a basic smartphone with essential features but lacks modern enhancements.
