Our Opinion
Specs are not everything but it does tells a lot about the phone. The Xolo Q1001 thus looks pretty unimpressive on paper at Rs 6,199. At this price point, there are several good handsets, few are even from the brand Xolo itself.
To start with 4 GB internal storage (of which only about 2 GB will be available for users) is not acceptable, for any handset above Rs 5,000. Most new age devices above Rs 5,000 do offer 8 GB of internal storage. Also, FWVGA display Resolution isn’t any good nor is 512 MB RAM.
