Videcon A30 hasDual SIM, Android 4.0 based A30 is currently the flagship phone of Videocon. It comes with 4 inch screen with WVGA (800 x 480 pixels) resolution and a 1 GHz dual core Qualcomm Scorpion processor.It also has a 5 megapixel rear camera with LED flash and a front facing VGA camera. A 1500 mAH battery powers the phone which is priced at Rs 7,700.
Design
Videocon A30 has nothing special in terms of design. It has an all black front and a white coloured back panel which is shiny and can get slippery. The camera sits in the top middle portion flanked by an LED flash. The Videocon logo is at the bottom, slightly above the speaker grill.
The power button is situated on the top towards the left side instead of the usual right hand top side. Since the phone is small in size, the placement is not an issue, but the 3.5 mm jack is placed on the right of the power/lock button, which makes it a bit awkward to unlock the phone while using the headphone. However it is not a deal breaker anyways.
The volume rocker is on the top left side while the USB slot is on the lower side of it. Inside the back panel, the Videocon A30 houses two SIM slots alongside the micro SD card slot. Thankfully, one need not to remove the battery to access these but a hot swappable memory slot (which does not require the phone to be shut down while inserting or removing the SD card) would have been better.
The four capacitive touch buttons below the screen are all back lit. Having four buttons point to the fact that phone was designed for Android 2.3 but Android 4.0 was ported to it. This though is no drawback as it allows all the functions Android 4.0 except for that fact that you will have to long press the home button to see all the running apps which in case of three button design is a one touch affair.
