Arise CZAR AR44 Mobile Review

Arise has not achieved any remarkable presence in the Indian market, but with Czar AR44 it can attract several low-budget

Android buyers. The low priced smartphone is a smart move from the company to increase their market presence. This small phone has a 4-inch WVGA display with 480 X 800 pixels resolution. The bright display provides gracious movie watching and gaming experience, but lacks at good viewing angles. You need to hold the device in a particular position to enjoy movies. It is coupled with loud speaker, which is average performer.

The Czar AR44 packs a 1.2 GHz dual core processor coupled with 512 MB RAM. It works smoothly with apps and games, but not made for gaming-freaks. Only light apps and games can be operated easily, while heavy apps and games can affect the performance. You need to add a memory stick in it to add more apps, as it has only 512 MB of space. Thankfully company integrated microSD slot that supports up to 32 GB card. The 3G compatible phone runs on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and sports dual-SIM.

The pocket friendly device's build quality is not up to the mark. The rear panel gets glossy finish that works like a magnet to smudges, but thankfully scratches are not visible. At the rear it has 2 MP camera with flash, which is a decent performer, but attracts lots of noise in dark even after using the flash. Front VGA camera can be used for video chats in normal light. The handy device packs 1500 mAh battery that can last for more than 8 hours with fair usage. In our video tests, it lasted for 4 hours and 15 minutes. Unfortunately the low priced device doesn't have GPS sensor.
