Whether it gets your attention as easily as high-end smartphones do or not, the market for budget-friendly handsets like the Karbonn A15+ and A1+ Duple is pretty huge. Simply put, not everyone can afford to or wants to invest in a costly mobile device.
The Karbonn phones we’ve mentioned are equipped with very modest specs and run on Android Jelly Bean 4.2. Speaking of similarities, each embeds dual SIM slots and a 1.3GHz dual core processor. You’re a smart buyer if you don’t expect a remarkable looking device for the price that either one is tagged with.
The A1+ Duple flaunts a curvier form factor than the A15+. Both SIM slots hidden under the hood can only take GSM cards.
