  • I bought Karbonn A11+ a year back.The problem started after six months.I had to get a new software updated from service centre.Then after sometime the phone began hanging frequently.When I removed my both sim cards;the phone got normal but when I again inserted the sim it hung.So I left the phone without the sims and the phone then runs smoothly.This was my experience.Overall the phone is worst in every aspect.The only thing that I loved about this phone was its touch.
