Panasonic P55 was launched here in Nepal for Rs.15,100 and features a big 5.5 inch High definition screen, rather outdated Quad core CPU (MT6589), 1GB of RAM, lower internal storage with 4GB, 8MP back camera that can record videos upto 1080P, 2MP front camera and a reasonable 2500mAh battery. Looking at the specs, it’s not astonishing, but there is a huge 5.5 inch HD screen that could lure the Multimedia users. So, does Panasonic P55 punches above its weight? Let’s see on our review:
