Hello All,

As the title says, IS XOLO worth a buy or a miss @ 16K?
Heard few apps will not be supported because of weird resolution. Also need clarification on the brand, as many claim that LAVA is just the marketing people for this INTEL's phone....

Thanks in advance

manufactured by Gigabyte. Marketed by LAVA. Performance wise, it beats dual core mobiles also. Just check who offers service. If it is LAVA, then better try something else.

And the resolution may pose a problem or two for certain apps but most apps should have updated to work on this resolution too. Problem can be that most apps are developed for ARM and not X86.

Thanks Sam for the quick response :)
When I googled about the service centre, it seems there is only one service centre for XOLO in noida and they arrange pickup & drop for warranty related issues.

So, what will you recommend, XOLO or some other phones?

the closest competitor is Atrix 2 and their service is no better. And only advantage is it'll support all apps and games. Just check if XOLO X900 users are facing problem with the everyday apps.

I think not many will support plus no custom ROM. I think they are not going to provide further update
