Well, I bought this phone for 9K Rs and am quite happy about it.

Spice MI 535
Display: IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen
CPU : 1.2 GHZ Quad Core
RAM : 1GB
Internal Memory : 16GB stock
Battery: 2550 mAH (1.5 days of battery with wifi ON all the time, 2-3 hrs of surfing.)
Camera Primary : 8 MP (photo quality is good in daylight but poor in low light conditions)
Camera Front : Wideangle 5 MP
OS: Android JB (I upgraded to MIUI custom rom)

I am happy with its performance and it beats Moto G hands down in pricing and feature dept. The service of Spice is good had a problem once with wifi when I dropped my phone and they replaced the PCB with no arguments.

Best app for e-book reading and text wrapping of PDF's on android tablets? I found qpdf and giving it a shot. Any other recommendations (paid/ or free)?

Did anyone find a a workaround to severe lag in Samsung Galaxy Grand duos after 4.2.2 update? I need to fix this asap without losing any data :Frustrati

My nexus 4 works fine with regards to volume control on kitkat. You should get it check at the service centre.

I switch between Aldiko and Moon reader. Most of my collection are epub but. I think both works pretty well for PDF's as well.

I use FBreader. It's fast, lightweight and can open most of the ebook formats!
I used to use aldiko, but stopped since I had some books in the .mobi format and it doesn't support .mobi.

And it should be around the Rs. 10000 mark if Flipkart is a little less greedy this time. :)

10k, i was backing my self between 8.5k - 9K for final launch price looking at the rate at which they imported :D.

I am still very much optimistic that they will price it cheaper than 10k going by the tagline of Moto "Made to last. Price for all".

But one can never be sure about flipkart's pricing strategy.

4 GB internal memory, i am not sure if it is expandable or not. If not then its a deal breaker for me as i was considering it as my secondary phone.

All you Moto G users - how is your battery life? I am getting just 12 hours on my Nexus 4 and it is getting bugging considering that I used to easily get 20 hours or even a day on my Micromax A110.

For Moto G check this #18096

For battery related issue try a App called "Battery doctor" i was suffering from poor battery life in my Grand Quattro, using this app from last five days and can certainly see some improvement after trickle charging.

Trickle charging is very well explained in below video

Hope this helps

The trick is to leave the phone in charge at least for 40 minutes after the charging is complete. My Moto G's battery used to drop from 100 to 90 in less than 1hr if unplugged immediately after reaching 100℅ but if I leave it in charge for 40 mins after reaching 100℅ the battery reaches 90% after 5 hrs. In both the cases the phone was kept unused.

Yup, have used similar apps. But will check out Battery doctor. Hope there is some improvement.

Will try this too. Hopefully will be able to squeeze out some more battery life.

I am getting around 1 - 2 days of battery life, with moderate to heavy usage of IM clients, browsing and full day mobile net on.

Do any of those battery saving apps really work? I had tried a few of them on my old Explorer and they really didn't make any difference.

So guys I have installed BeanStalk ROM in my Galaxy S3. It is a Kitkat based ROM. I must admit that this is the smoothest and the best ROM I have used till date. Great battery life and no random reboots. Very smooth and no lag.

I am getting nearly a day on my six month old nexus 4. Of course usage profile is a major factor. Here's mine
