  • it is a stupid phone. the track bal is the major problem with it. initially it was good. i recommended some of my frndz to buy that mobile, and they did it. within a year, the track bal was worsened, and they faught wit me for suggesting the wrong mobile.

  • there are two problems one is the track ball and no.2 there is no option for silent mode.

  • It is a mind blowing phone but the only problem is the track ball....... the company should give trackpad instead......

  • I'm 100% satisfied customer using micromax q5fb i can call, sms, mms, browse net, teethering to my laptop, mail configuration etc. I love q5fb

  • There is NO feature of "Silent Mode". This is basic requirement for any mobile phone.

  • It is a cheap phone so I did not expect much from it, but only two flaws has made my life horrible. One is the Trackball and the other one is the back cover. I have changed the track ball twice within one and half year. And the back cover is loosely fitted. Otherwise, the keypad is well and sound is mind blowing.

  • Using this hand set for last two years,but, I couldn't configure facebook, email to my hand set. It is only restricted to phone calls & sms.Even the local seller is not aware who is selling this mobile hand set.

  • that:s called ausom...realy....Becauce...i trear ball is so better

  • i am unable to acess Nimbuzz...

  • its good phone nice mp3 internet its look like a nokia phone. but one thing in it is trick ball that is not good that i not like.

  • I am using it from last 2 and a Half year I am happy with it It is very good phone If compared with nokia asha 200. The only -ve point of micromax q5fb is trackball other wise Its good..

  • this mobile is very gud only trackball gives problem.

  • guys the micro phone is good....bt trackball and camera are useless...

  • This phone is very good but is aveliable facebook is not work plz load good app and track ball is bad can you change.

  • Phone is good but its trackball gets unserviceable. I bought this phone in June 2010 and changed its track ball 3 times.

  • I'm using this phone. It's an awesome phone with maximum features. It helps us to access the internet upto high speed. Its quick and easy to handle. Battery is good, never gets heated up like Nokia or Samsung phones. What if Facebook Midlet Suite doesn't work? You have seperate applications for Facebook. You can even access it through Snaptu. Camera is good. I'm surprised none of you like the trackball. I've been using it for long and the trackball is too good. Has no problems. It is, of course, efficient.

  • I like everything about the phone, but the problem is with the trackball, getz damaged easily.

  • A very good phone nice gprs speed. But trackball damage easily.

  • a very modern but no any facilities available in it i was very depressed with this phone and its function

  • is there any option to download or watch live videos through this phone though iam unable to do that and make all my efforts to solve the problem but cant resolve that plz clarify my doubt

  • looking good but for using ...... eye ball is not working. too weight.

  • I have been using this phone from the past 1 year and it's waste piece of shit. Better to go for Nokia, Sony or Samsung at this price. Only new in this is Qwerty keypad and trackball. Trackball after few days doesn;t work properly. There are no smileys while sending or receiving messages. FB midlet doesn;t work at all. very touch to handle. Waste of buying this phone. Cannot connect to internet thru pc.

  • micromax is cool...but the problem is itz trackball nd it's facebook midlet.Also the delete all option is very bad!

  • headphone symbol remains same this the big prlm, nimbus face book opera mini no use, weight is mor

  • The set is having lot of problems. The track ball goes completely out of order within few months of use. the authorized service centers are very irresponsible. the repairing is quite expensive. To repair track ball, spare is not available and customers are advised to leave to handset for 25 days which render you helpless to buy another set to carry on your work. repaired track ball also have a very short life.

  • good cell phone but there should be msg tones to be set having trackball problem when u recive a call there is cont vibrations and when u put headphone in socket the sign remains

  • Such a nice phone. in lower budget.

  • see frnd...m using the same set 4 the last 1.5 yrs....nd the trackball problem is common....but there is a way 2 solve this problem. jst go 2 the market n buy spirit. its a solution to clean the dust which has entered through the trackball way inside...jst open the set with a screwdriver n open the trackball compartment...clean the compartment with brush...n after that use the spirit 2 clean ur trackball...clean all the 4 magnet sets presant in trackball comp. after cleaning it ur trackball would work fine.

  • FAKE WASTE HANDSET , Better throw your money to drain. These are Stamped C category Chinese phones . WORST MICROMAX SEVICE . If you want to buy semi branded phones , then you can go for SPICE . It is much better. Even MAXX is better than micromax .

  • I have Micromax Q5 since 1 year. barring other problem the tracball problem is very prominent. I have this problem for last 2 months cursor does not move downward which make problem in operating it. What is the solution of this problem. the other problem is it's cd driver not working in window 7 so it make difficult to log on computer through micrmax Q5. Give the solution of this pb. where is service centre in Patna and how many days the trackball pb. will sorted out by service centre

  • It's really the waste of money. Don't buy this phone. The pc suite doesn't work & never connects with the phone. Also only 700 sms can be stored at a time.So, you have to delete the msg after this capacity. Track ball is also problematic frequently. So, don't buy this phone

  • Micromax Q5 lookes like interesting before buying, but it is totally waste of money as it shows his own quality after 5-6 months. There are lot of problem in this phone since i am using this cell from last one year, i have already visited service center 3 times. It has problem with Trackball, it has problem with Audio Jack, it also have problem in sms storage capacity. it can only store few sms's. and the very sad point is it's have an bad option called "Delete all" by mistake if you will click on this option, your inbox will be empty within a second. after all my advice is never go for Micromax Q5. Thnx

  • well my trackball doesnt work on any side.. for the handsfree problem, plug in the headfone again n then push it in a bit.. off the fone n remove the head fone n then start the fone.. if that doesnt work, jst plug it in a remove it a few time till it gets detected.. those two ways worked for me..

  • The facebook midlet suite application in dis fone is totally fake..... it nvr wrks!!!!!!

  • nice one liked it . good network browsers yep, buy it

  • Micromax Q5 cell is 9C. Look is 9C.

  • The very next day you will feel .. throughing out in dustbin.. so better dont go on price.... i got remind the author words now.... Dont buy things..u really wanted... juz bcos its cheap...

  • Trackball problem solved !! *do it at your own risk...i've done it so i m telling...but it works for sure... 1.open the fone completely 2.take out the trackball 3.remove the steel panel of trackball carefully 4.inside on 4 screws u'll see lots of dust..clean it. 5.screw back evrything as it ease 6.ur trackball is now ready to work

  • the recovery password is 1122

  • I am using mobile since 2001, approximately i have used 500 mobiles, in my total experience, i have a bad time when using Q5, very worst mobile. Releases at cheap cost with cheap quality. No well trained technicians in service centers, no proper response from people, i strongly recommend you not to buy this model mobile.

  • i like q5 micromax mobile..

  • The phone is splendid phone. Micromax is a good brand and my last micromax handset gave me no issue. the warranty service is good. Produst durability is outstanding. What else can u get in the price they qoute for their product

  • total waste of money defects in this phone is uncountable 1st tack ball problem 2nd qwerty keypad problem and many more Moral of the story dont buy this phone

  • Im totally agree with ur opinion... waste phone..

  • Dnt even buy micromax, they run well (with help of service centre), after warranty ends mobile ends,,

  • dfddfggdggfdf

  • I bought a Q5 last September. It was going on OK until I started having a problem with the track ball. The track ball didn't respond to down scroll. Instead if I scroll down it would scroll up although the up scroll was working on fine. It had become very difficult for me to search contacts in my phone book & also to use social networks as frequent up & down scrolling is necessary there. On going to a Mobile Repairing Centre they immediately recommanded me to take the same to an Authorised Micromax Servicing Center. I did accordingly as I didn't want my Phone's warranty to get void. The guys at the AMSC scrutinized my cell & had my track ball's mouse pad replaced. It's working fine now. It cost me Rs.450/-. They further advised me to be very careful while scrolling as the problem with my Mobile erupted due to rough & over scrolling. So I would personally say that the Q5 is a very good mobile at it's segment. The only thing one should look for is to be very cautious while using the track ball for the logitivity of it's mouse pad. Apart from this Problem the Q5 is a Way Way Winner at it's Segment!!

  • never ever buy a micromax q5 phone. Its having a lot of scrolling problem. the scrolling ball gets jammed and u cant scroll even in a single direction. even u cant scroll and select a number from ur phonebook to dial.its a totally flop phone

  • but man when i try to open the list sfter caller group it is empty deafult hence it is showing th message "No contact available" and again showas only the default group names only

  • I have just brought this phone on yesterday. Primary observation about this phone. : Good one for basic function users. Headphone sucks. As very little sound to headphone. Slot is big than headphone pin. So connection is in loose condition and even in small hit it cames out all the time. Charger slot is very tight. So if you wont handle it carefully it might damage on some stage and your money will waste. Also if you even slowly touch trackball phone lights get started. Imagine you are traveling in train rush and phone is in your shirt or pants pocket. Just imagine about the situation. If trackball damage no other keys for up down right left as option. Better not to give in hands of small childrain as well as those friends who don't care others property. Fly b406 is good option for those who having small budget to buy a new phone. It comes only Rs.2500/- with all functions (Except java) with free 4gb memory card and mobile tracker service.

  • not too good phone , but for low budget users it's best

  • this is very bad phone. youtube player is not working so this is wast

  • I've been using micromax Q5fb for almost 14 months & I suggest you should not go for the phone. The only points in favour of this phone is the low cost & advantage of dual sim (so that one can take advantage of tariffs from different operators) The cons are: 1. Pathetic after sales service (they take almost 60 days in case some major fault is there in the phone as in my case). 2. SAR value not given on the website (although when I searched on google it says value is 1.87 W/kg which is quite high) 3. Camera quality very poor. 4. Trackball needed replacement & phone camera was stopped working. (Got the phone formatted but no to avail). 5. Sometimes the backlight doesn't switch off & keeps on draining the battery (to sort this out phone needs to be restarted). It's better to go for one of the QWERTY phones nokia is offering. (in case you are a QWERTY freak otherwise there are many other options...)

  • its waste to buy this product. i have changed it three times. still its waste.plz plz go for nokia

  • yes is the great achivement from micromax this hanndset is very chief and smart phone looks very smart

If u want a use* (Only for two months) and Throw phone this is the best option. Initially the track ball will fail. Then your speaker. Then ur charger pin. then your headset port. Shameless people in service. No response from them. They also bullshit micromax. :P There will be atleast 100 people waiting for getting their phone serviced for money and wait for 2-3 months to get bak. I have got the phone 1 year back and it was in the service centre for 7 months so far. :P :P Dont ever go for Micromax. Please Dont go for it. Atleast give that to a begger instead. (I mean the money and not the phone).

  • I am using q5 from 8 months the mobile is very good but you have to face the problem when you go to service centre the service of micromax mobile is very bad. when i go to service centre for network problem they submit the handset and said it will take 3 months to repair. after three months they should not give proper response. so i said to new customer please first check the service of your mobile company and then plan to buy it because they are new companies. Not like nokia,samsung,lg.

  • dude. . youtube needs flash supported browser as well as flash software in the mobile. .are u clear now??

  • sir i used this phone last 2 months pls tell 2 sim calls attend at a same time

  • i am using micromax q5 fb since 3 months.It is a good phone but the trackball is not working properly plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me

  • Why youtube not working ? Explain plz,

  • My new micromax Q5 ok, but audio player not working.

  • I used this phone for more than 6 months. Here is my experience with it. - Battery gives 3 to 4 days of backup with moderate usage. - music is just great with equalizer and Creative EP-630 earphones. Loud speaker does not rock, but works fine. - Internet connectivity with Airtel and Reliance GSM is very fine. But it is not great compared to phones from Nokia and Sony, but certainly better than LG and Samsung in this price range. - I used eBuddy, BOLT, UCWEB, Light Wallet, Moby Explorer, Nimbuzz, Anyview, teashark and a plethora of many other software. They all worked fine. - Many software like Opera Mini detect keypad as alpha numeric one (old 12345.. key pads) and to use these software, we have to press ALT twice and use only 0 to 9 keys just as we used in normal mobiles ( 1 for abc, 2 for def ...) - QWERTY keypad is great for texting. Interface is better than many low end phones from companies like LG and Samsung. - Trackball often malfunctions when operated with dusty or moist hands but will set right after a little cleaning. - Plays videos well but the screen has to be tilted slightly to left to get better view. I was told that this problem is rectified in Q7. - Call clarity is better, no call drops or signal drops. We can receive two calls on different SIMs at a time by keeping one on hold. - Radio works fine and picks up many channels. One of the finest mobile radios I have seen. - Camera works fine in daylight but has an orange tinge. Overall, the output is not that good. - We cannot update ebuddy but Opera Mini can be updated. eBuddy supports qwerty typing. Overall, it is certainly worth the money spent on it. And it feels sturdy and strong and weighs more than many mobiles. It certainly makes its presence felt in the pocket in city buses and local trains.

  • girish,if u like this phone you may go for it...but there are alot of other fones that are even cooler than this In My Opinion you should pay 500-600 extra and go for the LG GW300 it has got nice applications support ,some cool effects/animations,nice glossy body,loud sound upto 80dB,edge class 12 support its also a qwerty fone. so its probably worth buying or you may try the samsung champ or the lg cookie T300....

  • i took micromax q5 fb back 1 week. this is an amazing phone. internet browsing using this great gadget is awsome ... i love this phone...the most impresive thing is ... now with 2 sim active and playing songs almost all the time and also having average call duration of 15 min. for more than 20 calls a day am getting battery backup of 2 days... in kerala the price is only 3950 ... well am impressed ....

  • this phone has great feature but dont buy

  • Hey guys im giving u an honest answer.Dont go for micromax q5.Go for motorola ex115 instead.3mp camera,sound quality is amazing.......32gb expandable....u unlimited sms storage and phonebook storeage and edge class 10 so internet speed is amazing..its 4600 rs go for it.ive used q5,ex115,c3 this best

  • Advice: NOT 2 BUY. Hey guys micromax q5 is better than the chinese phones and worse than the Nokia lower end mobile like Nokia 2690. It doesnt support EDGE. It supports only GPRS of Class 10. Downloading problem arises thru Opera. Track ball is too worse and Nimbuzz is not working at all. We cant download any Java apps thru the major sites and we can download only thru "Umnet.com" Camera is not at its best.

  • Its message storage capacity is around 400 sms which is too less for a qwerty phone. Apart from this it is a good phone overall. Bear in mind that the design philosophy is very different from your usual branded phones and be prepared for some unexpected strengths and some unanticipated short commings. Pros Call recorder Radio with recording. Excellent keypad Sturdy quality construction. Great for scrolling through the sms with ease and has no equal in this department. External Speaker is good Headphone jack socket which can be connected to any headset. Dual sim. Negative points Internet capabilities limited to largely sending only emails and that to using the opera browser. Horrible pc suit. Can store only around 400 sms despite being great for texting. Can play only limited multimedia formats. Camera is poor. Conclusion :- It is quite strong in the areas where it is strong and more than a match for most branded phones in those departments.

  • yesh it has 3.5mm jack and its cost about 3800rs

  • yes yes

  • hi,guys m using micromax q5fb.use samsung corby TXT headset,it's too good to listen & customize equalizer

  • Nimbuz iz nt wrkin...wid ne operatr...it showz check your internt cnnctn...as all applications r wrkin well..

  • u cant copy txt in q5.

  • plz go to vuclip.com

  • how to copy/paste text in this fone....I don't know why u people complaining abt its trackBall after all its trackball isn't that bad...

  • q5 i a good but its track ball is not so good

  • can anybody tell me how to copy/paste text in this phone...i have searched alot but no success!!!

  • hey frd's gv me net setting na......... i hv Loop Network n MTNL Network....

  • can anyone tell me how to fix the internet using LOOP network in Q5fb?? rest all are ok with this phone

  • hey frd's gv me suggestion for hw activate wap on my q5fb .......

  • hey dude just go on zedge .com or songspk.com for songs,videos,wallpaers n all stuff related ur phone..

  • nice phone ...... 3900/- me it's nice deal yar all function r good.......

  • Hey, the only thing we can do is minimum use of the trackball. Really they go down quite easily that's why nobody in the market uses trackballs anymore. It's like having a ball mouse upside down. I wish they would get us some touch sensitive thing here.

  • Just bought Q5 FB for Rs. 3700 + 2GB T_Flash card for Rs. 200 = 3900/- (Oct 2010). It feels heavy and solid in hands. The UI is okay. I've tried a number of Java apps on this and I've found many games/apps on getJar,Zedge etc sites. The trackball is going to be trouble but we'll have to use it minimum. Best feature of this phone is the External Speaker Sound. It's awesome. Simply beats everything in it's class. Besides I found the bundled earphones not too bad. I'll probably get a pair of sound-isolating buds. Before this I was looking for either Nokia c2-00 or Motorola EX115. But I'd a hard time finding them at local retailers. I would say Micromax Q5 fb is bang for buck(only it lasts till next October).

  • Hi to all! if any 1 knows how to download mini excel in dis fone, pls tell me the steps guys.......

  • overall it's a hunky-dory deal. people who want to take advantage of dual sim can look forward to this phone which has a qwerty keypad & cost effective. trackball does not function that well. a word of caution: micromax's after sales service is pathetic. so if one encounters a problem with the phone it takes 30-40 days to get it serviced if the problem cannot be rectified across the counter. so take a note of this before buying...

  • how should i downlaod songs videos from the net through Q5?if i'm pressing save option then it shows the directory was not found.pls sm1 tell me the proper way.

  • I m using Micro max Q5 fb from 7 to 8 months -- the only thing i hate in this phone is the track ball.... has replaced 3 times but still....

  • Use + and - keys to control the volume

  • Dude, buy cheap china earphones... The sound quality will burst your head..! Default earphones are crap yaar.

  • If u wanna remove default opera, format ur phone memory (only). I did it on second day of ma purchase!!! lol!

  • yes but number games that support this phone r quite limited...and also like most other java phones this will not support any 3D java games...so far i have seen that only sonyericsson fones have proper support for 3D java games...

  • is this mobile supports for java games

  • micromax q5 track ball is not good he does not work proerly

  • Once again i m telling you'll this phone doesn't support EDGE it only supports outdated GPRS class 12 if u don't beleive me i dont care but because u asked i thought of offering u a helping hand....but this phone has good sound quality..... if u have got another good fone and u r thinking getting a secondary phone than this one is good enough but for net purposes it just too outdated but nokia even at this price point edge class 32 compared to Q5's gprs class12 it offers upto more than thrice the speed. ..

  • Any one knws how to view pdf,word,excel,utube in dis fone??? pls suggest me frndz

  • Thanx Deepak.. U sure na we can open open heavy sites al thru mobile? also, wats d downloading speed we gat wn we connect it to laptop..any idea? it does, connects to laptop thru pc suite or something na?

  • Hi Frnds, I am thinking to buy this phone but can u answer my few questions? 1)Does it has EDGE and can I connect it with my laptop for internet..what downloading speed we get at an average? 2)I heard, we can't open heavy sites from this..is it true? 3)How is the network reception quality? Should i go for this or Motorola E115(widin 5k)?

  • good mobile with best key pad,only problem with track ball

  • just as everybody even i had prob. with de track ball. Accidentally i had found out dat if de track ball is stuck and u cant move it wet the upper surface of the track ball with very little water using ur finger then keep moving the tackball in whichever direction it is stuck for sum time.....de problem with de trackball wud be fixed within mins!!..............it seems to b an absurd idea bt trust me i really works!!!!

  • although a good phone but gsmarena has wrongly stated that this phone supports edge.this phone only supports GPRS class12 with a maximum speed of about 88kbps-104kbps where as the even lower priced nokia phones like nokia 2700c nokia 2690 also have support for EDGE CLASS 10 @ 236.8kbps..if u feel i m wrong then go ahead try this phone..and waste your money..however the sound quality is quite good but not even close to nokia 5130xm or anyother nokia phone..and also where is the 3D SURROUND OPTION..

  • This fone has a extremly poor performance,trackball sucks a lot,problems with internet browsing, PLEASE DONT BUY THIS PHONE

  • can anyone tell me how to fix the internet using Vodafone network in Q5fb?? rest all are ok with this phone.

  • It was really good phone, all features are working well. I was afraid whether the track ball would create a prob but it has not still now, I try to avoid using it as far as possible, just to be on the safer side. The battery life is awesome and the music quality is also excellent. QWERTY keypad is well placed and comfortable. Altogether good phone, its is worth 4.5k. I will recommend it to those who just have a budget within 5k for feature phones. Thank you

But can anyone of you answer my certain queries? 1)I heard we can't open pic of more then 200kb size in it, is it true? 2)Can we download songs etc directly on phone using airtel-mobile office(not wap)? 3)Also, is there any problem as, not sufficient memory, while opening some heavy sites? 4) what kind of memory acrd slot it has-Micro sd or T-Flash?

  • can i install Dictionary software in Q5, it should be FREE OFFLINE....plssss suggest me,,,,the website from where i can get this software free...

  • After using this product for 8 months, I can surely tell that this is a nice cellphone. I've read all the reviews here; and found that people buy a cell, but are ignorent to use it and they complain about stupid issues. I have installed many softwares and games in this phone. (to use keypad to play software or game instead of trackball, press "alt" key twice!) Sadly, 3D games wont play on this phone. Internet access is bliss if you use bolt, opera or UCweb. My rating: 08/10

  • thats not true... track ball works fine,, if u use it decently... come on man.. dont say anything crap

  • 5 months ago i purchased micromax q5 i am very happy but now i am felling very bad about this phone i am very sad about it's trackball i am repairing it's trackball 2 times in service center but again it still same problem RELLY MICROMAX IS A CHINA COMPANY (DUFFER COMPANY) and micromax q5 does not support 3d games. But Q5's modem is relly owsome it's download speed is 48kbps wow. but when i am using this phone as a modem it will always disconnect the connection IN EVERY 1 HOURS then i am contect my customer care he says your micromax q5 will disconnect the connection Autometically. Then i use my friends Nokia 5233 and i use the internet without disconnection. If YOu use micromax q5 as a modem with your sim card it will off your Second SIM Card (DUFFER MOBILE). SO GYUS IF U HANDLE THIS SITUATIONS THIS IS A GREAT PHONE FOR YOU AND IF YOU NOT THEN CHOOSE NOKIA SAMSUNG SONY ERICSSON (BUT PLEASE MY REQUEST FOR YOU DO NOT CHOOSE MICROMAX) BYE.

  • This phone sucks. I mean...you cannot install an application in this phone, as there is no java nothing. Moreover there are big chances that this will stop working and it will became big headache in your mind. Go for nokia mobiles or other reputed brand but not this.

  • Hello friends.. I purchased the Micromax Q5fb phone in June this year.. The first ever problem I faced was the 3.5mm connector jack with in a month. There was a s/w problem in which the phone used to remain in the Hands free profile even after the ear phones was removed. Luckily got it repaired for free in warranty period. Then came with the track ball problem.. It didnt work as it should.. once again got it replaced.. I have never had such an experience with a new phone.. But there are few things to be highlighted.. > Its music > Clear voice during calls > Battery life is not that great. It lasts for 2 days > Spaciously arranged keys

But there are some minus points also, as; 1) No Hindi language support 2) Disappointing battery life 3) Cant play 3-D games.. :( Otherwise this mobile is worth your money.

  • Really impressed about Q5. Its not dual standby (only one line active for calls) Would Q5 let me receive call on line2, while line1 is used for internet browsing without line1 getting disconnected?

  • Micromax is Indian brand but it just puts their tag on the phones, all these phones are made in China. Even the software is not made in India.

  • Oh thats a good info. found the same in QMobile website and surprisingly found no link or mentioning about micromax-may be chinese imported ones and rebranded.

  • Quite a good phone for the price offered and probably the first Indian brand to find a place in GSMARENA. But a few shortfalls like **Video Streaming-Not supported** Messaging- No smileys** Key pad lights turning on even for a small touch on the track ball leading to quick battery drain- Key combination for unlocking could have been different, avoiding the track ball.** SAR not published-probable health hazards. The biggest shortfall: not even dual standby. The second sim turning off while the first sim is active in a call- very irritating and a big nuisance. The 2nd sim neither receives calls nor provides for dialing when the first sim is active. But still worth for the price and NOT worth if you are looking for a budget dual sim phone.

  • very mast phone.......

  • guys i am planning to buy this fone.. i just need good sound,moderate battery backup & no hanging problem... is q5 good enough for my desired features ??

  • Hi , I am using this phone since last 5 months. and i am fully satisfied with the performance at a price 4k.The sound quality is too good, A crestel clear sound even on full sound. More than a laptop max sound. Camera is not much good. But in day light its fine, battery backup in standby mode in not more than 36-40 hrs. (Due to dual Sim and network obliviously it will less). talk time i felt near about 4 hrs(continuously). I used to listen music whole night on speakers (near about 8-9 hours continuously) once it got full charge. Trace ball is too good gives a good felling . Its look wise also good. quite problem with opera mini browser and net surfing. If you are going for a mp3 player phone it is the best in cheap price. Thanks

  • Facebook Application Doesn't work........Can ne1 lemme know hw can we make it wrk.....

  • One of the biggest mistakes of my life is wasting my hardearned money on this stupid phone. Its not even 1 month since i purchased it, I have visited their service centre 3 times. The phone has numerous issues, the most prominent ones being it auto-restarts and hangs frequently. After a point of time it just switched off and refused to turn on. The service centre can just do software update and now they have asked me to enquire after 15-20 days.

  • Hey...I am using this phone from last 4 months..Its loaded according to its price tag...No difficulties in Internet...Only thing missing is its own browser...Use it as a modem..Camera is good in daylight..UI is fast and tidy..overall 9/10 in the price tag of 4000/-

  • i can't download any files bigger than 1 mb it gives error tgat connection failed but sometimes it download files of 9 mb when i bought this phone first two days i had download almost 10 files one after another from mobile9.com n each file worth more than 5 Mb n now i cant dowload a file even less than 2Mb. Can any body help me abt this problem??

  • And one more query: once you create sms group and you are sending the sms to the group, can you edit the group while sending, like in Nokia the group names appear in the "to send" when you select a group column and you can cut the the names that you dont wish to send...

  • Hi. Can someone please specify whether you can create playlist in the music player or can you select the songs that will play sequentially without creation of playlist like in my old HTC mobile...

  • There is not much technical difference between Q5 & Q7 (not hard to find out..just compare it here on gsmarena.com) Q7 is having wi-fi..and more internal memory.. personally I don't like look of Q7....compared to Q5 And I think the key shape of Q5 should be better for faster typing than of Q7 as I can see in the pics..well..haven't used Q7 yet..

  • > sound quality. if yes is it any where near the sound quality of any Sony ericsson phone. -- No..surely not near to sony ericsson ofcourse..but comparitively its good and better if you use better handsfree..its having yamaha sound drivers..if you are in love with SE sound quality..you won't get that punch in this..for others..its really good > internet browsing. - very good..very very good..it surprised me.. > does the dual sim card works properly. - yeah but it dosen't support dual standby..when one call is on..other will show off.. > does it have wi-fi - Naah..go for Q7 for wi-fi

  • right now I am not using this phone..but i had it for about 6 to 7 months according to me.. 1. Yeah you can play music / fm in backgroud.. 2. Actual talktime..I am afraid it will last long for five hours..hmm..3 to 4 hours I guess. 3. Trackball ...its very good..micromax is the supplier of blackberry trackballs..its not as smooth as blackberry..but..still very good 4. If you haven't used qwerty till now but if you are used to type on computer keyboard..then i don't think it will take more than 3-4 days for you to get command over it..and then the big raised keys will fulfill ur hunger of sending tons of SMSs... 5. Reception quality always depends upon the place you are..the handset is having very good capability..as it is made in india ..made for india.. 6. not at all delicate..metal frame..metal back cover..heavy one..the shape will fit nicely in hands.. --- it supports dual sim but not dual standby..when call on one sim is on..other sim will show switch off or so..

  • wat games? wat movies? and is the internet wap or full html??

  • no, hell no.. nokia 2MP is better than micromax. I have checked Q5.. but see it all depends on the particular set.. wat i mean is.. i have seen 2 different nokia 2MP camera's with different qualities.. so its nto right to say 2MP = 2MP .. same as any stupid indian company like bajaj pulsar with 220cc goes the same speed as yamaha R15 with 150cc ... so the better the phone, more the price, more the the quality.. and also der are factors like flash etc..which add up to it

  • s u can...

  • Hi.. can anyone answer this......... Can we upgrade the opera mini browser to latest version by downloading the same from Q5 mobile.

  • i am using Q5 for 4 months. i sincerely admit that this is a very good cell. not single problem occured yet. i think guys who complain about this cell dont know how to operate such thing.. i use it for smsing, internet (vodafone), music, watching movies, gaming mostly. at such price, this is absolutely a steal..!

  • The Phone is good according to its price. Rs.3960/- The track baller is very good. You can have the feel of Blackberry. But the Display looks like China OS( But my friend said that the OS micromax has is made of Linux) Good reception of the phone. The battery life is quite very good. Even after fidgeting with the phone by me n my cousins the battery was still on the second bar. QWERTY keyboard is good and simple to type. Camera/Video is the worst not upto the mark of 2mp. Ringing Tone is also very good. You have to buy a memory card as it does not come ith the box. According to me, not a bad phone to its price and looks.

  • I just bought it n am ready to sell it ne1 interested in buyin call me 9987775297 txt me for info!!

  • This Mobile is COOOOL!!! Qwerty is just gr8!! at the cost it comes, its worth it... Internet Speed is preety fast... Scroll Ball is something which gives u a good feeling as if using a Blackberry... last Verdict...!! GO FOR IT...!!

  • I bought this phone day before yesterday and found it is good and upto the satisfactory level of mine. The GPRS speed is good, i found difficult with the opera initially accidently I had deleted it too later downloaded the Opera latest version thru GPRS and get it fixed. The Camera is not upto the mark. the Track ball option is really good and feel like scroling ur mouse while using Opera. The battery back up is pretty well. I continously used the phone for browsing around 4 hrs and switched off and on it for more than five times to copy various sim contacts into the phone. But only One point among the three battery life point had drained out. I had already used someother dual Sim phones and couldn't find this much good battery backup. the headphone sound is similar to Sony Ericsson headset. This is my fiirst qwerty experience and I find the keys to be much comfortable. Facebook is not that much good upto me. Was facing problem in accessing the GTalk & MSN. GTalk is loading for a long time and alast respond as TCP error. I don't know what exactly it is and how to overcome that error. MSN is loading for a long time and do not log in. If anybody come across this GTalk & MSN issue and got this resolved kindly advice me.

Download songs, wallpapers, tones, games (depending on compatibility setting). Browse as much as you can with full content. 3.Eae of typing 'cause of spacious keypad. Cons. 1. Lack of Flash. 2. YouTube not supported. 3. Much heavier

  • i brought this phone about 2weeks back. the 1st 3days were amazing. no problem in usage. the 4th day it stoped recognising my vodafone sim card. but continued working with my reliance one. after next 3days, it stoped recognising any sim card. i took it too the service center, i was astonished to see 10people with q5-fb with same complaints. they kept the phone for checking. after a few phone calls, they informed me tht the piece was faulty and i needed a replacement. I got a replacement form the dealer. The second piece was even worse. its trackball is so sensitive tht mere brusing it the phone lights up. the speaker quality is bad. again i took it too the service center. they have again kept it. horrendous phones, no quality check. please dont buy it dr.hemant mittal

  • download pdf reader java software and run it

  • hey pushkar i am planning to buy this phone.... would be nice to know what exactly happened to your phone.... even i am from nasik....it would be helpful if i could speak to you before i buy this

  • I bought Micromax Q5 from Nasik. Its very sad to tell you all that the phone started hanging just 2 days after I purchased it. The phone locks itself and not a single key responds. You need to RE FORMAT the phone by taking it to the Service Center before you can begin to use it again. Very crap phone. Untested mobile, NEVER BUY IT !

  • dear ashwin.. dont bother about the sound quality.. u just need to get yourself a gud noice cancellation ear plugs either by sony erricson.. i use dell's earplugs.. as far as downloading games and instant messaging is concerned..there are few games which can be downloaded which are made through java.. as the operating system is completely java based..and messengers work fine.. u might find some problems loading opera mini.. that need to be fixed..you can do it yourself or else can move to the nearest service centre.. the camera works fine in daylight..quite clear..but in night its pathetic..the main drawback is that only one sim can be used at a time.. means if you are talking to someone on 1st sim and in case someone calls on the other sim, the phone would appear to be swithced off to that person. never tried to use internet on it as using high speed broadband at home.apart from that U can tell me ur budget and requirements, i can help you to suggest a gud handset for u :)

  • hey guys.. does it have a 3.5 mm audio jack???

  • can we open pdf file on handset

  • dude download opera mini from operamini sit then install it in ur mobile.after this process it will work but it may b possible that it wouldnt work with its short cut available on main menu....for letting the short cut work u would hav to do a thing that follow the steps below:- go to fun and games then go in java u will see all applications there now confirm that the opera mini icon exists there in the 5th no. if it dosent exists on fifth no. then place it on fifth by deleting the applictions installed by u above opera. when the opera wil come on fifth no then its shortcut will start working............

  • No. Both the SIMs do not work simultaneously as in Samsung.

  • try to activate the operamini correctly.... its a fantastic browsing experience using with BSNL 3G sim

  • No Not, But surely its a worth phone for the cost of Rs.3800 +......

  • Can anyone say about the dual capability of this phone is d 2 sims able to work simultaneously like samsung

  • 2 day with Recieved phone & listen song

  • Well,Q5 is just a steal if u are looking for a multimedia phone.. i got it for just 3800 and the phone is quite satisfactory in terms of voice quality.. and the music quality is unbeatable.. just like apple ipod. the bass effect is terrific.. u just need to use some good quality noice cancellation ear plugs.. the camera is not good at all so dont expect anything in terms of camera and video..dual sim works fine... all messengers working gud and very comfortable keypad and the trackball is also very smooth. I give it 9 out of 10 as i dont care about camera and videos. Cmmon guys what more can u expect in less than 4K. :) :)
