Guys , Check out the full professional review here http //www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwS1JveNfPs Check out the benchmark results of the phone here... http //www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q i6frZKtTw&feature=context-gau Just Giving some first Impressions of my New Karbonn A9 Smart Phone The Display is big - 3.8 inch Battery is a big one too 1600 mah 3G and Wi-Fi enabled Other Details , I have mentioned in Video.. And Yes, it does have a ambient light sensor, as the display brightness changes as per surroundings For Any more info please let me know in comments ***************** Some responses to Queries ********************** HI , Thanks for all the comments ... Here are replies for some of the Queries NO HD Recording, sadly . but Video recording has Resolution gone upto 864 x 480 in 3gp format till now But I was able to record upto 640x480 in mp4 using a third party software , the video quality is decent though Call quality till now has not been an issue, I have only a single sim, so cannot say about dual sim usage experience, but i have used the same Sim on both slots and it worked properly on both Slots , and yes there is a sign which says you can use GSM/WCDMA sims , there is a Dual Sim settings where you can check uncheck the sims for usage Wi-FI works perfectly and yes, marketplace is accessible through your account, internet experience is perfect, streaming videos run well Battery back is good and can last for 2 days , but depends on usage, but much better than others The flash is of good quality and can light up a dark room, photos could get overexposed if not used carefully I have been using a 16GB Memory card, it works fine, also sound quality is good, no issues there , it supports upto 32GB mmc and It costs 9k , but also depends on what more bargain you can get from the dealer :) Around 500MB is available internally for the user, I assume the total internal memory is around 1GB The Flash is a single LED one , but more than enough to suit photo and torchlight purpose Coming to games, a friend of mine ran GTA 3 succesfully with this phone, and it runs well, I see not much problems when it comes to games I tried to run a HD movie (720p) and there was a slight lag while playing, but the video was quite watchable, I need to check whether it is only for that particular video coming to Updates, I am not sure, and frankly skeptical too, maybe karbonn guys might come up with updates once a good number of handsets are sold :) Messaging has no Issues and by default opens QWERTY keyboard Irrespective of Landcape or portrait
