Both the models are pretty identical to each other and also in most of the specifications they ranks the same except for the screen sizes.
On the top,there is a 3.5mm audio jack with the microUSB charging port at the bottom.Volume Rocker is present on the left side and the right side is occupied by Power/Wakeup button.

- Both the devices will be running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) which is disappointing but performs well.
- Both the devices are powered by 1Ghz Processor and 256 MB RAM.

Micromax A100 Detailed review


Introduction :
Micromax had launched recently launched Superphone A100 canvas in the market priced at Rs.9999 . Currently A100 is available in Single core version and its dual core version is expected to be out in the market by September end.
Micromax is one of the leading Indian brands in the market and is coming up with the products good in looks,features and priced reasonably.

Design Looks :
This phone is quite slim but not as slim what it is expected to be (just 11.9 mm thin to be precise).
It feels very light in hand as the body is complete plastic with a matte finish back cover.
Micromax had not placed any buttons on the front of the screen which is invisible when the screen light is off.
When screen light is on,there appears 3 buttons which also takes up some pretty pixels on the screen,thus reducing the space for the screen view.The screen resolution is (854*480) on a 4.95 inch FWVGA screen.
The volume rocker is on the left side and the power button on the right which looks a little raised .There is a 3.5mm audio jack present on the top and a micro USB port at the bottom.Really a impressive device in looks,good build quality.

Multimedia and Interface:
The screen is very touch responsive.The credit goes to 1 Ghz processor and the large screen which performs very well.Micromax A100 comes with all the multimedia features and with some preloaded apps like mBuddy,mZone,mStore,Google Plus etc. but the disappointing fact is the non-availability of AISHA feature on it which is there in low budget phones of Micromax.
A100 Superphone canvas sports a camera of 5 MP and a front camera of 0.3MP for video calling.
The camera performs good in its price and an average recording of 480 p(demo) .


The browsing on this phone is very very good with zooming and pinching very smoothly.If you're buying yourself a device for web browsing,this is going to be a very good choice.
The sound on this device is also good.It comes with a different sort of headset which is non-in ear headsets unlike A90 and A52.
The device is capable of 5 multitouch which is useful in playing games demanding high amount of touch responses.

Performance:
The 1 Ghz Qualcomm Scorpion processor performs its job very well and there is no lag in moving from one screen to another.Also there is a good performance by the Wi-fi and bluetooth.
It comes with a Adreno 200 GPU which makes it possible to play some games likeTemple Run,FruitNinja,AvatarHD without any lag.It comes with an internal memory of 2GB(1.3GB left for the applications).ICS out of the box is a very good thing for this device.In this price bracket,the device proved to be a value for money product.
The notification panel is a sweet for the user getting their useful and frequently used option at one place.You'll not have to install other widgets for this.

Battery:
It comes with a battery of 2000mAh which performs well and ends up with some good amount even after the heavy use for 5-6 hours.

Benchmark:
On testing the device on Antutu benchmark,the results were
Total : 2845
CPU:  1027
GPU:  293
RAM:1021
I/O:    504
On Quadrant benchmark, it scored a total of 2189.

Final Verdict :
This device under Rs 10,000 is a very good buy if your budget is limited to this and you can't afford to go for more.
And if you're ready to spend some more bucks then I would suggest you to go for Micromax A90 which is priced at about 12,000 but will be available in markets in September.
However,you can wait till September for the dual cores version of Micromax A100 which will be a very good in terms of performance.

The device might take some time to come in the market,but you can buy a one from Flipkart as the device showed up itself yesterday only.
