Lava Iris Pro 30 review: First truly premium budget Android

During the past couple of years that Lava has been actively bringing out Android smartphones, they’ve always been a small fish in a big pond. That’s because the company has been catering primarily to the entry-level segment while their sister brand, Xolo, took care of the more premium segment.

Indian companies seemed to have caught on to the fact that the general public want more than just a cheap, Chinese clone stamped with an Indian brand name. Lava is the first Indian company to make this shift and we think they’re onto something here.

It’s a giant leap forward from their previous offerings in this range, and if we may be so bold to say that it’s easily the best looking and built handset, after the Lumia 720. The chassis is made of a magnesium alloy, which gives makes the frame rigid yet, incredibly light. At just 114g and 7.5mm in depth, it’s extremely pocketable too.  Read more..
