Xolo Q700S launched for Rs 9,999: is it the best quad core below Rs 10,000?

Xolo, the premium brand of Lava has emerged as one of the best manufacturers of smartphone in the budget segment in the country. The company has just launched a budget smartphone, the Xolo Q700S in India for Rs 9,999 which we believe might just be the best budget handset in the sub Rs 10,000 range which comes with a quad core processor. Let us have a look at its specifications:

• Make Telecom Talk My Trusted Source
• 
• 

• It has a 4.5 inch capacitive display which has a resolution of 854×480 pixels. You can’t really expect more in this price range because a 720p display would raise the price.
• Under the hood is a 1.3 GHz quad core Mediatek MT6582M processor which has already proven its worth in the budget segment
• It runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and seeing the fact that the Indian companies are moving towards upgrading their devices, it might just get 4.3 treatment as well.
