Micromax Canvas Hue 2

The Micromax Canvas Hue 2 is an entry-level smartphone with good core specs for its price, a good primary camera, and dual SIM support. The phone is available for below Rs. 10,000 in India.

The Canvas Hue 2 comes with a 5.0-inch HD AMOLED display that should display videos, images and text with clarity and sharpness. The AMOLED display ensures readability under direct sunlight.

The phone runs an outdated Android 4.4 KitKat OS. The phone comes with a 1.7GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6592 SoC and 2GB of RAM. The eight-core CPU will run multiple tasks on the phone at a time in partnership with the 2GB RAM. Users should expect a certain amount of lag while running demanding apps and while switching between apps. The phone comes with 16GB of storage for necessary apps and some personal data, but it is recommended to earmark this space for just apps as this space can be increased to 32GB with an SD card if space for personal data such as music and images is required.

The 13-megapixel primary camera takes quality images although a better sensor would have made a big difference to image quality and phone price. The primary camera comes with autofocus. The secondary camera is 5-megapixels for selfies. A 2,000mAh non-removable battery powers the phone which users can expect to last less than a day with normal use.

The Canvas Hue 2 is a dual SIM phone that supports a microSIM and a regular SIM, in addition to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0 and a microUSB port. Sensors on the phone include proximity and light sensors. Inbuilt apps on the phone include Hike, BookMyShow, Opera, Truecaller, and Gesture and Look Away To Pause.
