Comparisons Featuring Micromax Canvas Play Q355
Short Review
- The Micromax Canvas Play Q355 features a simple design available in dark blue and white, with a lightweight build.
- Its 5.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 178 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6582M chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 1GB of RAM, suitable for light usage but may struggle with multitasking.
- The rear camera is 5 MP, capable of recording 720p video, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The 2820 mAh battery provides moderate longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 5.0 Lollipop, the software experience is basic and lacks modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the Micromax Canvas Play Q355 is a straightforward smartphone with essential features for casual users.
