Google has finally launched the first set of Android One smartphones that are powered by reference design hardware and closely integrated, standardized, stock-Android UI. While there's not much differentiation in terms of the internals, the phones, made in collaboration with three Indian vendors - Spice, Karbonn and Micromax, look and feel slightly different.

The
back is also where Micromax differentiates the phone with its own
branding and a protruding, circular, metallic ring that houses the
phone's 5MP rear camera and LED flash. The ring has a dark,
brushed-metal finish though the finish could have been better. A small,
round speaker opening and the Android One branding is also present at
the back.

Micromax
Canvas A1 looks very similar to Android One phones made by Spice and
Karbonn except for a few minor aesthetic differences. The basic design
philosophy and build quality of the three phones is consistent.

The
front of the phone features black plastic bezel that sports a glossy
finish and a 4.5-inch FWVGA(480x854p) IPS display. The Canvas A1 is the
first Micromax Android phone to come without any hardware capacitive
keys for navigation. The front panel also features a 2MP front camera
and a round earpiece.

The
4.5-inch display offers good viewing angles and decent sunlight
legibility. However, we found it a little prone to smudges. Also, while
the low display resolution doesn't stick out due to the comparatively
smaller screen size, the experience is not as good when compared to the
720p display of the Xiaomi Redmi 1S, which is priced at Rs 5,999.
