Processor

  • The accompanying 1 GB RAM is a little less as compared to the latest handsets.
  • The processing is very light and smooth. The touch is very responsive, not even a single lag was noticed.

Memory & Battery

  • The handset has 16 GB of built in memory which might not be enough for many users.
  • The memory cannot be increased as there is no slot for expansion.
  • The 2050mAh battery will not get you through the day. Only low to medium users will not need a charge in the evening. Heavy users can’t have any expectations.

Verdict

On the whole Kazam has delivered a very charming little handset (or very charming slim handset). It has some obvious drawback because of the battery and lack of micro SD card, but the phone has nailed it in the design field, the processing is fast and the display is incredibly sharp. Some users may not like it but others will definitely love it.
