Micromax has launched its latest budget smartphone, the Yu Yuphoria, at an event held in Delhi. The device is quite a head turner with a metal frame body, 2GB RAM and 5MP front camera at the most sought after price tag of Rs 6,999. This also means it will be competing with others at this popular price point from Xiaomi, Motorola and Lenovo. We’ve put the Yu Yuphoria, Xiaomi Redmi 2, Motorola Moto E and Lenovo A6000 in the ring to find out which one emerges as the winner, at least on paper.

Take a look at the comparison chart below:

Bottom line:

Micromax’s Yu Yuphoria has further intensified the battle of budget phones in India with a metal frame and whopping 2GB RAM. It’s the only device in that price range that doesn’t look plasticky. If you are looking for a large screen experience then the Yu Yuphoria and Lenovo A6000 are evidently a better pick, closely followed by Redmi 2. But in terms of display quality, the Redmi 2 has a higher pixel density and could offer a slightly sharper display.

In terms of processing power, except Moto E, the other three are powered by Snapdragon 410. But Yuphoria has an edge over the others with 2GB RAM. So, it is better placed to handle multi-tasking and one can expect a smoother and non-laggy experience.

In terms of camera, Moto E disappoints with its 5MP rear shooter over the 8MP found in Yuphoria, A6000 and Redmi 2. For selfie lovers, the Yuphoria is a clear winner with a 5MP front shooter, compared to mediocre cameras found in the rest. In terms of connectivity, they seem almost at par, save the 4G support missing in Moto E.

The Moto E leads with a 2,390 mAh battery, followed by Lenovo, Micromax and Xiaomi. However, Yuphoria also includes the quick charge functionality that is not found in this price range.

With all four carrying a similar price tag, the mobile OS becomes one of the crucial differentiating factor. If you are looking for pure Android experience then look no further than Moto E 2015, other three come with skinned OS. Both Yuphoria and Moto E run the latest Android Lollipop mobile OS. Needless to say, Yuphoria gets a layer of the latest Cyanogen OS 12. Another differentiaing factor is the 16GB onboard storage found in the Yuphoria, while the others come equipped with 8GB. All four have expandable slots up to 32GB.

All in all, the Yu Yuphoria looks like a great deal, at least on paper.
