Excellent budget smartphone for everyday use.

Krishita Singh (Jan 31, 2023) on Gadgets 360 Recommends

Buying this product is part of my support for "Make in India" and "Aatmanirbhar Bharat." We need to support our own Indian companies so they can grow and become more. Every Indian should support their own companies so that they can grow and become more competitive. It has lots of features, and the UI looks so nice (on stock Android). The most beautiful thing about it is its design and premium look with a glass finish.

Impressive camera quality with 4G support

Anurag Kataria (Mar 10, 2016) on Gadgets 360

I came across this stunning handset-Lava V5, yesterday. I must say that this is the thing I have been looking for-4G support and impressive camera quality. I don?t think 11500 bucks is too much to pay for a phone that is offering some great features with awesome battery backup (3000mAh). Can?t wait to buy it!!!!

Decent Phone for the price you pay!

Sudip Ganguly (May 8, 2016) on Gadgets 360

have been using this phone for last 2-3 months. The display, touchscreen, camera are all amazing. Particularly the camera has some features which I did not find in Samsung Galaxy S4. However, the battery life is not satisfactory, so you would need to charge frequently, holds charge for about 12 hours from full charge on moderate use, so if you use it heavily throughout the day, you might need to charge it sometimes during the mid-day.
