Since its inception as a mobile phone brand it has been on a gradual growth path and Canvas series of products have accelerated the growth and improved the brand image drastically especially after the Canvas 2 A110. The first mobile phone from Micromax was X1 which had super long battery standby of up to 30 days which then followed many more phones and they never looked back. They launched many smartphones in budget segment followed by Tablets in Funbook series which were marketed heavily with the educational angle of the affordable tablets.

Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 A240 India Price, Features And Details

Micromax is going in different direction starting the launch of Canvas 4, which is a good direction in our opinion- which is improving on its own product’s quality. Rather than putting all its money on more fancy specs, now Micromax is going for better build quality products and better features in the Canvas series. Most of our readers were disappointed with Micromax Canvas 4 A210 as it did not offer much different specs compared to Canvas HD A116, but in reality, Micromax has offered something which was missing on its previous phones, is the solid metallic build quality which makes the Canvas 4 special.

With Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 A240, Micromax has continued one more step in direction of improving on product quality. The Doodle 2 is not a revolutionary device, but with a metallic build and features which it offered on the Canvas 4 A210, the Canvas Doodle 2 A240 is set to attract more refined buyers or you can say buyers who are looking for more reliable devices.

Micromax Canvas 4 Review

Micromax Canvas 4, iteration to the first budgdet quad-core smartphone in India that is Canvas HD. Micromax Canvas HD was wildly popular and with the awesome pricing it got its image up to a new level. MediaTek SoC powers all the budget Android smartphones launched here in India and overseas which comes with 1GB of RAM. Micromax Canvas 4 too has the same chipset so what makes it different from others including Canvas HD? We tested the device and you can read our review below.

Micromax To Launch Octa-Core Canvas A240 Soon

After the disappointment from Micromax with the Canvas 4, there are rumours that Micromax is planning for something big this time. MMXNewscaster the source for all Micromax leaks recently tweeted “Next: Micromax Canvas A240. #StayTuned”. Analysing this tweet we can infer that the next Micromax Canvas model which Micromax is currently working on will have model number A240 alike Canvas 4 which has A210.

There are rumours that the next Canvas model will feature the latest octa-core chipset from MediaTek MT65892 which is known to exist. Recent reports tell us that the new octa-core MediaTek chipsets are expected to arrive by the end of this month and if it proves to be true then our hopes to the octa-core budget smartphone lives in.

The Canvas 4 though pictured itself as a budget alternative to Samsung Galaxy S4 with some similar features lacking the octa-core performance but still was not able to surprise the public which expected it to be the first smartphone using MediaTek updated quad-core chipsets with Turbo boost. MediaTek MT6589T which boasts up to 1.5GHz pushing up benchmark test results a little more higher is an improvement over MT6589, the chipset in Canvas 4, Canvas HD and most of the other budget smartphones by Karbonn, Lava, Zen, Xolo and maybe some more.

GizChina expects the first MediaTek chipset octa-core smartphone to launch sometime before December this year but Micromax better hurry up before anyone else take this oppurtunity to stand back in the competition. Another possibility is having a big screen which has been now trending these days as phablets market share is constantly rising up.

We expect Canvas A240 to have:

  • MT65892 Octa-core chipset
  • 5-inch full HD display
  • 2GB RAM
  • Android 4.2

What do you think? It will be fun to see how these rumours come out to be, stay with us for more updates.
