Oplus Xonphone 5: Heavy On Features, Light On Pocket- Video Review & Details
by Rohit Khurana •
Oplus launched its 7 inch tab called Oplus Xonpad 7 with premium specs and not so premium price earlier this year. Now around the mid of 2014, we see another high-value-for-money phone coming from the house of Oplus called the Oplus Xonphone 5. The ideology behind this product is also the same as we saw with the Xonpad 7, which aims at bringing high value features at low cost to the customers. The first thing which comes to out mind when we hear such things is that the product may be sub-standard, as it is selling for lower than the competition products, but that is not true. As per my personal experience with the Xonpad 7, I can tell that the brand did not cut any corners when it comes to product quality. However, to keep the price this competitive, they have saved on the distribution and sales network cost by partnering with one of the leading online sellers in India, Snapdeal.
