XOLO Q500 - User Reviews

  • Very good phone. . using it from 2 years. .

  • Waste phone and battery

  • xolo Q500 mobile battery is very bad.

  • No one will help you for this phone services... No battery in market since 1.5yrs I have given complaints in service center n number of times, no response bullshit company No help from customer care A big fraud with customers

  • This is not good product to buy if you want to get trouble in life so that you can buy. This Phone has countless problems: 1. Battery: Battery power & life both are very low. If you want to buy new battery you will not get at their service center and online websites. 2. Software Update: Phone will never update. 3. Screen: If phone screen has broken and you visit the service center, You will not get proper solution. 4. Back cover & Screen Protector: If you want to buy screen protector & back cover you will not get in any online website. I will never buy & recommend XOLO smartphones.
