7. XOLO Black:
The Xolo Black is the first phone from XOLO in its ‘Black’ series. If we talk about the design, the phone looks stunning, it has rounded corners, Corning Gorilla Glass 3 covers both the front and the back of the phone. On the back, the placement of two cameras and the LED Flash in between them looks amazing, the power button & volume rockers are placed very nicely on the side of the phone, the power button also has breathing light for notifications which looks very stylish. The phone feels very premium and scores full marks in design. The XOLO Black sports a 5.5 inches Full HD display with 403 ppi pixel density and the display is awesome. It runs on 1.5 GHz Octa-Core 64-bit 2nd Gen Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 Processor coupled with 2 GB RAM which has good performance, the phone can handle mid level games pretty well although it lags a little in heavy games. The best part of the phone is the dual camera setup on the rear. The Xolo Black has two rear cameras of 13 MP & 2 MP and both work simultaneously, the 13 MP camera captures the subject while the 2 MP camera is used to capture the Depth and the final image is the combination of both. The rear camera comes with features like fast focus (0.15 sec), Ubifocus™ (you can change the focus after clicking images) & ChromaFlash™ (snaps two shots, one with flash and one without). These features promise a lot and the picture quality is good but could have been even better. The 5MP front camera also comes with front LED Flash. It runs on latest Android 5.0 Lollipop with beautiful HIVE UI on top of it. The phone has a great 3200 mAh battery.

9. Micromax Canvas Knight 2:
Micromax has launched the next version of the popular Canvas Knight named as the Canvas Knight 2. The first thing to notice about the phone is its stunning design. The phone measures just 6.3 mm of thickness and it has an all metal and glass build as it has got Corning Gorilla Glass 3 on both the front and back of the phone while the edges of the phone are metallic. This gives a premium design and look to the phone and at the same time it feels very good in the hands so, it scores full marks in design. When it comes to performance, the Knight 2 is powered by the powerful 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon Octa core 615 processor coupled with 2 GB RAM. This makes the performance of the phone very good, it runs smoothly without any lags. The 5 inch display of the phone comes with AMOLED HD display, well its good but seeing the tough competition, a Full HD screen would have done wonders for Micromax. The phone runs on the Android Lollipop 5.0 with nearly stock UI. It sports an impressive 13 MP rear camera which comes with Sony IMX214 CMOS sensor and the phone also comes with 5 MP front camera which comes with lots of modes to get a perfect selfie. The phone supports 4G and dual sim.

The phone packs a 2260 mAh battery which is expected to deliver decent battery life. Overall, the phone packs decent features and a great design so, if you are looking for a greatly designed slim phone then the Canvas Knight 2 can be a good choice. If you want a slim phone, you can also go with the new Micromax Sliver 5 which is the world’s slimmest phone with its 5.1 mm thickness.

[section label=”10. HTC Desire 626G Plus”]
10. HTC Desire 626G Plus:
Beautiful!!! This is the feeling you get when you first see the phone. The HTC Desire 626G Plus carries forward the new design trend of the mid ranged HTC devices like the Desire 826. It has a plastic build but the phone’s design is awesome and you can fall in love with it instantly. It’s not only beautiful from outside but the HTC Sense UI is also pretty beautiful. The phone is also good when it comes to the hardware which runs the phone. It sports an Octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A53 Mediatek MT6752 Processor and 1 GB of RAM which runs the phone smoothly but, it’s not for heavy usage and surely lags behind the competition. It has 5 inches HD screen and the display quality is decent. In the HTC Desire 626G Plus, HTC has increased the rear camera from 8 MP in the Desire 620 to 13 MP, it also has a 5 MP front camera and both the cameras of the phone are good. It supports dual sim but misses out on 4G (LTE) which its competitors are offering at the same price. It has got a 2000 mAh battery which gives acceptable battery life, 8 GB of internal storage which can be expanded upto 32 GB. One thing to note is that, the back of the phone is glossy so it attracts fingerprints easily. Overall, the phone has nothing great to offer in this highly competitive market and only HTC fans should think about buying it. HTC also offers bigger 5.5 inches HTC Desire 816G Plus (Octa Core), it can be a good choice if you want the design of HTC with a bigger screen.
