  1. not even close to being attractive. should be priced under 20k with these kind of hardware. Also AFAIK, quadcore Mediatek (that means Cortex A7) should allow 1080p video recording and nowadays even 16-17k mobile can record videos in Full HD. wonder why PS1 can’t. and 4GB internal memory is a joke.

    1. completely agree with Kaushik, this one should be priced similar to micromax A116 not worth the price u have hell lot of phones better than this at that price

      1. Yes, Its equivalent to Micromax Canvas HD but we can pay 3k or 4k for the Panasonic brand value. 17-18k would have been the best price for this device 🙁

  2. Like their Advertisement… they were out of India and not analyzed the present market trends or technologies. The present specs can sell at 10-12k, with similar specs Q700 is available for 9299. We have nexus 4 16gb for 25990.

    1. nexus 4 is anytime a good buy even xperia sp which in terms of specs /scores higher than s3 is available for less 🙂

  3. Wow…. Same specs as MMX Canvas HD (OK except battery), but with DOUBLE THE PRICE???

    I pity the dealers of this brand…

  4. it’s over priced… Panasonic this is India..first we see then buy ….

    Come on your brand value is not as good as iPhone…

    17-16 K Ok…
