Why the Rs. 4,999 Mobiistar CQ Is the Envy of the Budget Segment Right Now

The idea of a budget phone is very different these days. A few years back, phones under Rs. 10,000 would be considered as budget, but now that category has shifted closer to the Rs. 15,000 segment. What you have under Rs. 10,000 bracket now are the entry-level handsets - your first phones, if you may.

Unlike the competition, Mobiistar hasn't cut any corners by giving you a hybrid SIM slot in it's dual-SIM phone, and you get a separate, dedicated slot for the microSD card.

The biggest highlights of the Mobiistar CQ however are its cameras. It has a 13-megapixel selfie camera with multiple Beautify levels and upgraded photo-processing algorithms. Not only is the CQ's selfie camera optimised to capture great images, its beauty filter can brighten and soften the skin, enlarge eyes and enhance the v-line of the face presenting the best version of you. The beauty filter has been carefully designed to bring out your natural beauty, and not make your skin look pasty or plastic-like.
