Coolpad Cool PLAY 6
Compatriot conglomerate Xiaomi already has a vice grip on the low-priced and mid-priced range of phones that dominate the market and cater to a specific demographic. Coolpad entered the Indian market in order to loosen this hold and get a cut of the pie by delivering models priced below Rs 10,000.
Speaking from a specifications point of view, one would be bound to feel that this phone should ace in all departments, especially considering the fact that it has a dual-camera feature which is probably the main reason why they priced it at Rs 14,999. However, even though it has definitely got its redeeming set of characteristics, the offering still somewhat falls way short of expectations in the end after one weighs the pros and cons. It doesn’t mean that the phone doesn’t hold its own amongst other mid-range offerings.
