The other dimensions of the phone consist of 142 x 69.6. It weighs around 152 grams which is average in comparison to the other devices. Hence from the user point of view, it is a standard device that one will like to use.

YU Yureka Black flaunts a 5-inch full HD display with a screen resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels with 441 ppi. The phone has a curved glass design and is protected by corning gorilla glass 3 which gives the phone an edge over others as not many devices offer gorilla glass. As a result, screen damage is a very common issue in the Smartphones. It also recognizes multi-touch up to 5 fingers which is great. It is available in chrome and matte black colours. Hence the user interface is also easy to operate.

The device is backed by an Octa-core 1.4 GHz Cortex- A53 processor along with Qualcomm MSM8937 Snapdragon 430 processor. Hence, those who are much concerned with the fast movement of the device apps, this is a phone which will not lag behind at all.

Camera

The camera of YU Yureka Black is an eminent feature of the device. It is packed with a 13 MP primary camera with amazing features of phase detection autofocus, dual-LED flash along with geo-tagging, touchscreen, panorama, 1.12-pixel size and 1/3” sensor size. It also offers an 8 MP front camera which allows taking excellent selfie pictures. Hence for the selfie lovers, it is one more device that one can go for to have quality selfies.

Battery and Storage

The device offers good Battery and storage support. It has an internal memory of 32 GB along with 4 GB RAM which is impeccable! It is rare to find a 4 GB RAM in lower segment phones. The memory can be expanded up to 64 GB. Hence memory is not at all a question for an average user.

It is also equipped with a 3000 mAh battery which offers fairly good standby support to the user.

Connectivity options

It also features sensors such as an accelerometer, fingerprint sensor, and proximity sensors. Hence just like other modern devices this phone also offers a number of features for easy connectivity.

Price

The YU Yureka Black price in India is around at Rs.9000 which makes its positioning in the lower segment. However, the device will face some competition in the segment with some brilliant smartphones in this category also.

Verdict

The camera and RAM of YU Yureka Black are one of the most outstanding features which are rare to find in the lower segment. The Indian origin YU Yureka Black will face the competition fromthe majority of Chinese phones at the given price segment. The device is expected to face direct competition from Xiaomi Redmi 4 which is priced at Rs.7000. The Redmi 4 outperforms at battery front with 4100 mAh battery and is also available only on online portals.

However, YU Yureka Black seems to be a nice option at Rs.9000 owing to its brilliant specifications. The previous Yureka was a huge hit, but it’s almost 2-3 years since its launch, and it would be exciting to see the upgraded version of the same. Still one can’t deny the competition Yureka is certainly going to face from Redmi since it is ruling the Smartphone market in the lower-middle segment. Hence, only time will decide the fate of the phone. For latest updates, comparison and customers reviews, you can visit 91mobiles, one of the topmost mobile portals in India
