After the success received from Iris X1 and X5 in Nepal, Lava launches Iris Selfie 50 phone for Rs.14,500. Iris Selfie 50 is their new midrange phone that focuses on Selfie users. It is now available for purchase in different stores all over Nepal.
About the Phone
It comes with a 5 inch FWVGA display (854 X 480 pixels) with a pixel density of 240ppi and is powered by a Quadcore Broadcomm processor running at 1.2GHz and 1GB of RAM. There is 8GB of internal storage with up-gradable memory card slot upto 32GB. For taking pictures and videos, there is 8MP rear camera with Dual LED flash and a 5MP front camera with LED flash. Both these camera can record videos in FullHD resolution. It runs on Kitkat 4.4 .2 with minor Lava’s own tweaks and customization. The phone supports Dual SIM and include features like Wifi, Hotspot and GPS. The best part of this phone is it’s 2400 mAh battery & considering the battery only has to power a lower resolution screen and a low powered Quad core processor, we expect the battery life to be decent.
Our Verdict
Lava iris Selfie 50 is a good phone if you are into taking too much selfies. However, if you are a multimedia person and play games more often, then Iris Selfie 50 could be a setback as both the screen and the performance of Broadcomm chipset are mediocre and could let you down. There are better options in the form of Honor Holly and Redmi 1S.
