  • If You Used Device In Proper Manner So It Never Hangs Suggest To Restart Your Device Attleast One Time In A Day.

  • Worst phone ever only camera is good Hangs a lot Shuts down in between Takes minimum 15 minutes to restart Unlimited useless advertisements Software problem Hangs a lot

  • This The Bats Device I Use Ever. This The Best Brand. Never Let's You Down. I Want To Suggest LAVA Device To All My Relatives. Because I Wants More And More Users Of LAVA Brand. And That Device Lava V5 Is I Think One Of The Device In LAVA Brand. MS Dhoni Doing Advertaisment For LAVA Brand. And I Think He Done First AD for LAVA Is For This Model.(Lava V5)

  • Update :its almost 7 months no hangs,no lags,runs slightlu hot but no big issue. What surprises me the lava official site has discontinued this high end mobile with out notice,I am planning to write an email to consumer court.

  • In my phone LTE supporting video calling. Today I was upgrade Volte after that I cannot able access video calling if I call normal dialpad only appears

  • Reset Your Device After Taking Proper Backup And They Try Definatily You Got Proper Solution.

  • Just Wants To Conferm That After Updating Device, Did You Perform Back And Reset Funvtion In Your Device.

  • Its almost 3 months now since i owned this v5 model and upgraded to android 6,i must say it still handles hardcore games with ease,my suggestion is StarOs should be in touch with its users,I still feel they can tweak both camera,after taking the pictures,when you zoom the photos,pictures start getting disturbed/glary sort of.apart from this this phone is fantastic one could ever wish for,the problem with lava management is they are not promoting this model,i wonder why but promoted lava X81 and now biggest issue is its availability.

  • Damn good camera

  • You take backup and restore the phone(erase everything,)

  • Ya! It is a superb mobile

  • It is out of stock everywhere. You can get it from offline stores.

  • He! Boy change your camera settings.

  • Can any one add video of lava v5 after updating v5 to marshmallow ....

  • Hey Guys i too got a lava V5.Its good mobile but after marshmallow it started hanging and camera clicked 2 mp pictures instead of 13 mp.Then i went to Lava Centre and they helped me to roll Marshmallow back to lollipop.It all went good for the 1 month after Degrade l,But now V5 has started clicking again 2mp photos.Very bad camera quality and plus charging time is hell!When i try to click a sound picture(before addition of audio in it) it shows perfect pictures(13mp) bt when the Photos are saved with the audio it loses its quality

  • from where it can be available?

  • My friend I think you don't have this mobile,and you are mentioning fake opinion.i have this handset,and I was so impress with camera and it's images,and I have purchase another handset after 1 month.

  • I got lava V5 it is having verst battery charging it tooks almost 6 to 7 hrs to charge completely

  • I agree with you

  • Lava V5 is good in all sense but it tooks very long time to get charge almost 6hrs

  • camera is really good buddy but when you zoom it it tends to get grain but this will be fixed when marshamallow update,all you need is to wait for update

  • buddy it was not officially announced by lava,you have downloaded custom marshmallow from third party,anyways all you need to do is wait for the release and go to service center and change to stock version

  • exactly hopefully by next month october mid we should be getting rolled to marshmallow

  • you cant buy it online?i am sure you can,i am using this mobile,pretty much happy with it after all its the second costliest lava mobile anything more than 10000 is considered high end mobile,true indian by heart will buy indian mobile,indeed there are couple of chinese good brand who offer excellent and better spec than indian mobile,

  • The time has come for me to choose a new phone and I've heard that the LAVA V 5 has a VERY low SAR/radiation. That's basicly what I'm after. Problem is I live in Sweden and I can't find any retailer that sells it. FROM WHERE CAN I BUY IT THEN? Or does someone here have a another really nice suggestion of a low-SAR/radiation-cellphone?

  • most probably it will be resolved when updated to marshmallow,try using mxcamera from android store,there will be less grains while zooming.

  • I got my update to android 6 few days back Now its not available What to do??.

  • After i upgraded to android marshmellow my back cam is not working and i am getting a inverted image if thwe front cam. If i install a new launcher the phone keeps hanging and sometimes it is not able to detect the sd card. Please give me a solution. If you want to contact me, you can contact me on [email protected]

  • MaRshMalloW 6.O updatE availabLe noW FoR LaVa V5 💟💟💞&#128­158;

  • Is its earpiece sound is low during call?

  • Lava v 5

  • First of all have you used the phone that you are talking about the satisfaction! Of course a phone that has a glass covering will break if you truly want to break it! A Corning glass doesn't mean that the phone wont break ever!! Its just additional protection that you have over your phone! And, speaking about the TVC, it was done under special condition in a lab, and and it shows that the Corning Gorilla Glass is much more stronger than any normal glass. BTW on another note, I have used this phone in the past and after numerous falls it survived! In case you are phone hasn't survived (that's if you have used the phone) then I'm guessing your case must be a unique one!

  • Dude, Lava V5 is damn good. It has 4G connectivity, 3G RAM, 8MP front camera and 13 MP rear camera. Both the cameras have LED Flash. It also features the protective Gorilla Glass acting against the falls and dangers. But that doesn't mean that you forego on the protective tempered glass! Its just one of the advantages that you have! Not-to-mention, its 3GB RAM and 16 GB ROM stores the maximum data and enhances the function of the phone as well. Don't think yaar, just look at the features and just go for it.

  • no worry my mob is good while takn selfie in night mode...take infront of light

  • when i will get update for volte

  • Volte update ????

  • about lava v5 at time of selling and giving advertisemnt that screen will not get crack after falling down, but totally its rumour it get crack...i m not satisfied with this gorilla glass....all jst saying lie....

  • Which phone is better lava V5 or vivo V3

  • I bought lava v5 five days back. With normal usage like WhatsApp.... battery performance is very very poor. Do you have any solution Thanks in advance

  • How to switch off background apps..

  • Hello Naveen First of all, you don't have to be scared as overheating is a problem that occurs in all smartphones. Just make sure that you don't use it continuously for hours and also make sure that you have the other background apps switched off! And don't even think of charging it the whole night! That will surely create a problem for you. If you are still not satisfied, you can always go to the Lava service center near your place and get your Lava phone checked by them.

  • Awesome

  • why? is camera good?

  • Take selfie at night, you will become mad after seeing that photo.

  • cook master.apk is the only soln

  • You have added Priority in calls, so it won't turn the volume, you need to drop down it, then select all. It will go off. This is new feature in Lollipop

  • no saprat sim ringtone can not seen only miss call,out going call, receive call sapratly,

  • What about the display ralusation and 267 ppi. Gaming reviews What happend I think 290 ppi is better........

  • See Lava V5 has a pretty good battery life with the 3000mAh (rather difficult to find in the price range). I'm currently using this phone, and it satisfies my needs—I have a few apps and games and my phone lasts a day with a single charge! Standalone wise meaning without games and too much texting, it certainly goes for a day and a half without giving me much trouble. In fact, it is primarily the battery features I bought the phone for. And if you are lookin hour wise performance, then on continous 3G: 8-10 hours On Wi-Fi: 9-10hrs

  • Hey Dude, On what basis do you think, Xiaomi is a good phone? It has almost the same features as the Lava V5 and on the contrary it has slightly better features than Xiaomi. V5 was primarily launched as a camera phone but it has other features to back it up and make it as a complete package. As for the camera, the selfie which is primarily used is an 8MP one! And for the clutzes out there, V5 has also Corning Gorilla protection, though that doesn't mean that your phone break or wont get scratches but it will certainly have some kind of protection.

  • Well first of all Lenovo Coolpad 3 is a 2015 model while the Lava V5 is a 2016 launch! So with Lava you have the lastest hardware+software! That's what one looks at when buying a phone! I know that the price matter but at the end of the day you would also have to look at the services that the company has got r not! For Coolpad note 3, whats the after sales service experience people? But with Lava you get the best service centre with prompt service that is much more than what other well-established brands offer. After that its your choice!

  • Hey dude I have Lava V5 and its photo quality is absolutely fine. In fact its auto focus is pretty ok, I don't know you are saying it's not good. It has 13 MP primary camera with REALLY fast auto focus (0.18 secs). Even the selfies come great in V5. Have also heard that X10's image quality is pretty good, though havent checked it first-hand . In terms of battery power both of them are a winner. • Lava X10 has 2900 mAh battery life • While Lava V5 has 3000 mAh battery. Though they have claimed it lasts for 14 hours bt for me it lasts 12 hours and its absolutely fine for me. Lava V5 is awesome and I am very impressed with its performance.

  • I am looking forward to lava x10 and v5.and recently i know that x10 camera s auto foucs is not good and v5 s picture and camera qualities are not good too So what should i buy What is the rate of battery perfromance in both plz Answer I have to buy a phone with value of money.

  • I think Xiaomi redmi note 3 (32 GB) Is good phon....

  • Hai after long search I choose lava v5 and yesterday I bought a phone With enjoyed and adamant in my first month salary but my enjoyment is not longtime. I wish to bought the phone for camera of 13 mp and 8 mp but I disappointed about camera and display My 6 year old Nokia x2 00 5mp camera picture is best than lava v5 13 mp camera picture it not worth also 8 mp camera it is like China Mobile camera very very sad about of screen resolution display is not a HD and also 1080x760 very poor quality. Picture when zooming it is blowre with the same features other brands have low price but this cost is very high I want the phone for only camera with careless of money But I disappointed. So Saddddd Another problem is when type the message and dial the number automatically zoomed view come and touching letter is auto and wrongly. Battery is good. 100% to 90 % battery drained fastly then after 90% slow drained when using 3g network . Touch is OK but little slow. Speed of mobile is good. Apps workings is good. Design is good. Low weight. Net speed is good. This opinions are using of the this mobile after 24 hours please suggest any solutions for that problem of display and camera.. Thank you For contact Sivarama Krishnan.S Mobile no 8973267631 Tamilnadu.

  • I too faced camera issue .. Got yesterday only.. Planning to change but which one should b the choice then?

  • Hi , I got lava v5 yesterday. But it's cam is not so good as per configuration.. Speed of phone is good.. Apps are working good.. Music on speaker quality is OK OK.... What should I do? Which other phone should I go for?

  • Tell me about lava v5 battery time

  • i like its camera is 13 and front 8..but it does not show real color ..bit high brightness and dull colors.. But i agree clear camera pictures even not in real colours

  • my frnd but in lava u will recive super cool gestures and smooth touch so it compunsating to pay more as u get some features to showoff../.

  • Lava v5 is an amazin fone wit smooth touch,impressive camera and wat i liked most is the smoth and easy gesture control features like smart selfie and wide selfie are present to amaze the phon user.

  • You can go for coolpad note 3, a stunning handset with low price 8999.it is good with expandable memory upto 64gb.it is waterproof,fingerprint.it is nice.

  • I have planned buying this lava v5.but i choosed coolpad note 3 for rs.8400.it is expandable upto 64gb whereas only 32gb in lava v5.then the coolpad note 3 is super with price tag of 8999.

  • I bought Lava v5 from flipkart.It is working good.Then its usable internal storage is only 11GB.and its 1.3 quad core processer is not good.

  • Pls tell me about lava V5....is it a good phone with working smoothly??

  • I am a fan of lava mobiles.... Except one thing.... their sound quality... I had a lava iris 504q+. Was awesome with camera and worst sound quality. I had an iris x1 as well. It only supports lava head sets!!!... Still I have confusion about that sound quality in present models. Somebody please clarify it for me

  • I have been using Lava V5 for some time and it's awesome. Initially was skeptical about it but this phone has impressed me with its performance. As it has 3 GB storage space the apps run smoothly and its battery life is also pretty long. Though the camera of this phone is what has made me buy this phone- 13 MP primary and 8 MP secondary camera along with LED flash so that's a definite a plus; the phone has other additional features that I discovered later on which made it a worth the money spent on it! Go for it man, this one is an amazing handset by Lava Mobiles.

  • Lava v5 have no full hd screen. you can go for lava x10 with same features,and very low price in many online stores.

  • Guyz plz help me out....hw is the lava v5 function and hw it wrks the camera quality..plz tell me abt tat..!!

  • Okay Lalitha, I don't know about you but are you really okay with paying your hard earned money on smartphone features like compass, magnetometer and TV out. I know about the other smartphone brands like Lenovo and Asus which bring such features to consumers, but I don't feel that those features are at all practical and are just for show. The Lava V5 is on the other hand cheap and offers just the features that you will be using on a regular basis.

  • Let me be honest with you---there is uptil now now no phone that lacks the heating issue! Every phone will have some heating issue some time or the other! So until these phone companies come up with phones minus the heating issue, you have to deal with whatever you have got! Couple of my friends have been using Lava V5, that has some amazing features that stands out amongst the other phones in the same budget. It has a big display, with increase RAM (3GB), powerful camera with Android and fast processor that takes care of the heating issue to a certain extent! Considering all the features and the price tag, go for this model!

  • Go for it! I personally think Lava V5 is probably one of the best phones in its current price range. Firstly, it has a big screen size—a 5.5" HD display with Corning Gorilla Glass (though you'll have to get additional protection but it's a good start that you have this phone). Plus it has 3GB RAM, I don't know if you are a techie, but that's a damn good configuration when combined with Android Lollipop and a 1.3 GHz Quad Core Processor. Lets your phone run smoothly! Internal memory is 16GB which is again a plus cuz you wont have to worry much about juggling apps and when you need more space you can always expand it using a SD card. On camera front its also good! It has 13MP rear shooter and 8MP front shooter, both with LED Flash. Battery is just fantastic at 3000 mAh. Plus, its a January release, so its quite latest in terms of hardware and software. If you're looking for a good budget phone, I say don't think much and get it!

  • put your three fingers on screen ....and run them downwards....thats it you can do for screen shot

  • Farhan,there are many demerits with lava v5.like it dont have compass,magnetometer and not have output to tv. You can go for lenovo a7000 turbo, moto 3rd gen, lenovo a6000 plus lenovo vibe p1m, lenovo k3 note, lenovo vibe x3, lenovo vibe x2, asus zenfone 2 laser, asus zenfone max, asus zenfone go, redmi note 3, lava x10, mi4i, samsung glxy j3, and more.....

  • I think you can see lava x10.its ram is greater than lava v5

  • Yes,i too feel lava v5 as best as it new model. One thing that this phone broke and its display goes waste. Otherwise it is good phone

  • Hey Ashish Have heard people complaining about this same problem, in facet even I'm facing the same problem. But after checking the Lava FB page, got to know that its on the way! Thank God, I thought that it isn't working at all. Just keep a watch on their page and hope that it comes out soon! And announce it as well!

  • Bro I have been using Lava V5 and I am completely amazed by its smooth functions. It clicks the best pictures with its 8MP and 13 MP cameras. It does not face any memory issues due to its 16 GB internal memory and 3GB RAM. Packed in the metal body, the phones gives awesome experience of watching movies, playing video games and clicking pictures. I would suggest that you should go for this phone.

  • Granted that Asus Zenfone 2 supports 128GB memory card but you have to look at the other thing like if it has this massive space but if it doesn't have a supportive processor then what's the point of having a phone like this! Even the upgraded OS is not going to be of any help! So my advice would be to go for Lava V5, though you would get considerable less storage, but atleast your phone would work smoothly without any lag! Plus the RAM and the Processor will make sure that you don't have a good experience! And one last thing even Lava V5 will have the Android Marshmallow upgrade available in case you think otherwise!

  • Go for the phone

  • Shall I bUY this Phone This Good For This Price, Please Somebody Help Me To Find Me A Good Phone That Have No Heating Issues.

  • Lava V5 has certainly made me fall in love with it with its awesome features. I recently bought it and it is all I want! I keep posting new selfies on social media with its amazing camera. And that's not all. All my friends are jealous of me because of its long lasting battery, beautiful sleek design and a great display. Also, the touch is very fast and smooth. I would certainly say that everyone should buy this phone. Its value for money!

  • My dad has been using Lava V5 for quite some time now and he's very happy with it. 1. The display is pretty good with a sleek metal body design and curved edges for improved grip plus its durable, and I would know cause it has accidently slipped out of my hand so many times. 2. Runs on Android Lollipop and has guaranteed upgrade to Marshmallow. 3. 3GB of RAM 4. 13 MP rear and 8 MP Camera front camera (the best feature so far) 5. Dual SIM with 4G support. 6. 3000 mAh Li-Po Battery along with Super Power Saver Mode, which helps in extending the battery life immensely. Well, that about sums it up. An amazing phone for an even amazing price. A must have!

  • Absolutely loving the cameras on the Lava V5, especially the front camera! I'm what people would call a selfie freak and I'm proud of that tag nameand what makes each and every day of mine go by is the amazing cameras of the V5. Plus it's super affordable at just 11,299 INR. I would recommend everyone out there who's looking for a good camera phone to go for the Lava V5, you won't be disappointed, TRUST ME!

  • Good Phone I Like it

  • Hey guys... I'm using lava iris x8 ... Now i want to know which is better phone x8 or v5....

  • I completely disagree with your review buddy. It's been over a month since my roommate purchased this beautiful creation of Lava V5 and has never complained. In fact she is still gushing about how great this phone is. Of course the picture quality cannot be compared to high end cameras but I should say that the Lava phone you mentioned deserves its credits. Let start with how pocket friendly it is, Lava V5 costs just Rs. 11,299 and considering its 13MP camera with LED Flash. Maybe you should check the lighting of your environment before you capture. Have you tried to adjust the lighting of your environment before capturing? It could be the reason why it is creating the noise in the pictures. Let's consider the other features of the phone too, its 3GB RAM and 1.3GHzquad-core is excellent for her to run multiple apps simultaneously. The problem with the battery and heat is probably because you are overworking your phone, and for the charging problem try charging with Airplane mode. They take very less time to charge. If your problem persists you may want to get it checked in service center and get it sorted!

  • Hello friends, I have been using this phone since one month. Let me share my experience with this phone. I wont say this is the best phone with this price tag. The problems i faced with this phone are as follows.. 1) camera quality If u wish to take some great quality pictures then this phone is definitely not for you. 13mp rear cam and 8mp front cam takes pretty descent images in bright sunlight but it suffers a lot to take an average image at indoors.. dual tone led flash is not so commentable. The pictures are very noisy and indoor images are blurred enough. I think the 8mp rear cam of samsung galaxy j5 takes far far better image than the 13 mp front cam of lava v5. 2) slow charging.. takes almost 1hr 45min to charge fully while some other phones at this price range takes only 1hr 15 mins. 3) phone heats up very much while using mobile data and during gaming. 4) the headphone that comes with this phone is not so great. Now let me tell some good things about this phone.. 1) RAM.. the 3gb ram is more than enough for high end gaming.. you cannot feel a single lag. 2) touch response is very good. 3) battery lasts for one full day and next half day. 4) out of 16gb rom you get almost 11gb free. 5) call clarity is good. 6) useless apps that comes with this phone can be easily uninstalled.

  • hi adnan i have bought this phone and used 3 day my review is about phone it taking too much time to charge and battery draining very fast,camera is good in day hours bith rear and front but worst in night even camera hanged several times while chosing auto detection mode.i take it to service center but nothing happened.over all my rating is 2.5/5

  • Hi Adnan! Now I'm requesting you to stop lying about Lava V5 on social media. I bought this smartphone a few weeks ago and I have been having the best experience with it. It has a fast and smooth touch with a long lasting battery. I only have to charge it once a day and it still has enough battery for the next day. And don’t even start on the camera. Check my instagram and all the pics uploaded have been clicked by this phone. It has a great quality camera. My rating for this phone is 10/10. If anyone is thinking about buying a new phone then Lava V5 will be a great choice!

  • I am requesting You all not to buy this phone.Camera Display And Touch Quality is Toooo Bad. I Buyed one New V5 And Sold it Within 12 Hrs On a loss of 3000/-.My rating for this phone is Negative.

  • The 3gb ram is very good you can use this devise

  • Boos I want lava v5

  • prem are u using this Handset ?

  • Yes, I agree that Lava V5 is one great phone that takes over from other phones available in the market at this range. The spotlight of this phone is its camera and I don’t think that they would do so if they cannot provide what they promise. Its 13 MP and 8 MP front camera is spectacular. And I should add that its ability to auto focus at 0.18 sec makes capturing easy as you don't have to hold your gaze and position to get that perfect shot. Of course, it doesn't give you high resolution pictures like a DSLR or SLR would but it is just a phone and considering its price value of just Rs. 11,999 its perfect. It clicks pretty decent pics in the bright light,its only in low lights that causes a bit of problem which is pretty obvious. However you can easily rectify that with the usage of LED flash for both the sides! And need I mention more, about the other features of the phone which you yourself are raving about!

  • Thank you for your information.. I am going to buy this phone

  • Bought from local store.. Performance is very good, call quality is very good and also battery life is good. But Both though 13mp and 8mp camera are really below average quality. Lava have wrote so much about camera but its really disappointing.

  • Can we keep unlimited no. Of blacklist no. In it or its has a limit only upto a few ???

  • Does its rejected list have facility to keep unlimited blacklist no.s??

  • I'm using it.. Superb Phone @ this price

  • its good phone

  • its agood phone.........

  • Simply without using device, I am lava fuel 50 for past 1 year, still working good

  • no, the phone's ram is 3 GB. and it's quite an impresive handset..

  • Did u used lava phones ??

  • device with 3 gb ram but lava"s 3gb ram will work like 512 mb ram

  • lava company is bigest company .. lava mobile is very popular because lava mobile chip price and increase feature... so wonderful ..

  • Regarding the graphic card, don't expect the stars and the moons at just 11,299 cmon, be reasonable. And about the Quadcore processor that you are commenting, lemme give u an insider detail- it works like a dream with no lags! Besides the phone has lot to offer, like the amazing camera quality that click a perfect pic even in low light and some lively selfies that too at a blink of eye (13 MP rear camera and 8MP front camera),the long lasting battery backup (3000mAh), extensive memory (16GB inbuilt expendable up 32GB) and Android Lollipop Upgradeable to marshmallow. I don't think so that there is anything else that could have been asked for this price.

  • Great phone ever seen... Fully indian smartphone... Features n specs awesome... Buy it at ebay.in, 149 sold in one day,more than 10 available... I bought and will be in my hand soon... Excitment overload... Can't wait to get futured phone...

  • Oah fish, in the market there are different types of fish, and think about, the world is market of mobile phones, same as in the market we found different type fish, sometimes we encounter fish we have never seen! AND THE CUSTOMER IS INTERSETED IN NEW FISH! HOW MUCH IS THAT IN DOLLARS?

  • its agood phone.........

  • Yes indeed, the specs of the Lava V5 are truly impressive and it costs just 11,299 INR. And to tell you the truth buddy, there are very few smartphones out there which have a similar price tag and with similar specs as the V5. BTW what's with the fish?

  • Hi friends i have buy this phone yesterday performance is excellent, camera good , charging is excellent. i have satisfied

  • Got LG G2 now. It's much more better than Lava and still cheaper. After 2 years using it there is no progress in cell phones...sad

  • 4/10 means price around 150 euro. But theres no information about GPU maybe it wont have any graphic card at all. And quadcore is poor. Especialy one in this phone. But for its price should be more than fine.

  • Specs good but how much cost fish?
