Proud to use a Lava phone that's assembled in India and it handles my daily apps without lag. The free service support they offer is a genuine bonus over other brands. Minor gripe is the display could be a touch brighter outdoors.
Good value, free service support
Display dim in sunlight
The Lava phone itself is well built and performs fine for the price I paid. What holds me back from a higher rating is the slow and unpredictable software updates. When it works it's good value, but the support experience is hit or miss.
Well built for the price
Slow, unpredictable updates
Bought a Lava feature phone for my elderly parents and the loud speaker and big buttons are perfect for them. Battery seems to last almost a week on standby which is brilliant. The only downside is the basic interface feels a bit dated.
Loud speaker, long standby battery
Dated interface
My Lava handset comfortably lasts a day and a half on a charge which is exactly what I needed. The clean software has no bloatware and feels smooth for everyday calls and messaging. Only wish the camera in low light was a bit sharper.
Excellent battery, clean software
Weak low-light camera
My Lava smartphone shipped with bugs and the promised software update never arrived after months of waiting. Customer support kept deflecting and the service centre couldn't fix the random restarts. Hugely frustrating to be left with a glitchy phone and no resolution.
Abandoned software, poor support
