Bharat 2, an affordable 4G VoLTE-enabled smartphone was launched in early April. Micromax Bharat 2 is priced at Rs 3,499. It is powered by 1.3 GHz Quad-core Spreadtrum SC9832 processor coupled with 512MB RAM and 4GB expandable storage (up to 32GB via a microSD card slot). It runs AndroidMarshmallow. Micromax Bharat 2 gets a 2MP rear camera and 0.3MP front camera. Backed by a 1300 mAh battery, Bharat 2 comes with a 4-inch WVGA display.

In our firs impressions, we were highly impressed with the standard of build quality. The biggest highlight of Bharat 2 is support for 4G LTE. The display is fairly acceptable given the price point and the fact it is targeted at first-time smartphone users. The 1,300mAh battery should keep the phone active throughout a day.
