HTC, Microsoft, and Sony already have phones with powerful front cameras to cater to the selfie craze sweeping across the globe. The latest to join this bandwagon is Micromax, with its Canvas Selfie.
The Micromax Canvas Selfie has a 13-megapixel front camera with flash and an app which is embellished with a ton of beautification features. The marketing campaign quite clearly indicates that Micromax is targeting women with this phone, but we'd say quite a few men would also be interested in the Canvas Selfie because apart from the powerful front camera it also has a good list of specifications. Let's find out how it performs.

Look and feel
The Canvas Selfie is by far Micromax's most unique design yet and probably its best one too. The phone is quite unlike other candybar smartphones we've seen in the past - the top and bottom are curved in a way that reminds us of the aptly-namedSony Ericsson Xperia Arc.
Available in two colours - Pearl White and Sapphire Blue - the Canvas Selfie tries really heard to steer clear of the monotony of black smartphones. The Pearl White edition has gold metallic edges and the buttons are also made of metal. The rear of the phone has a faux leather finish with stitches running along the edges which we first saw in the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Review |Pictures). The Canvas Selfie feels light to hold and is a great device for one-handed usage, even if slightly bulky.
