iVoomi released two new budget smartphones under Me series in India recently. These two budget smartphones come at a price of Rs. 3,499 and Rs. 4,499, and both of the smartphones are available to order online exclusively from Flipkart.

The iVoomi Me4 and Me5 looks a lot more similar to each other only the difference is that the Me 4 has glossy back and Me 5 comes with a matte finish. Talking about the box contents; Me 4 and Me 5 both come with a charging brick, data cable and in-ear headphones. The important documentation about warranty and quick start guide comes in both boxes. iVoomi packs battery separately in both smartphones.

iVoomi Me 4 comes with a 4.5 inches FWVGA display with touch capacitive navigation keys below the display. The back panel has the circular camera lens and flash, the shiny iVoomi brand logo is placed below the camera. The right edge got the power button and volume rocker button, the top edge got the micro USB port and 3.5mm audio port.

iVoomi Me 5 comes with mostly similar design as Me 4, the phone is all plastic build and got a removable back panel. The front bears a 5 inches display with HD resolution and covered with a 2.5D curved glass panel. The right edge has a power button and volume rocker whereas the top edge got the micro USB port and 3.5mm audio jack.

Me 4 comes in three colors Champagne Gold, Slate Gray and Midnight Black where as Me 5 comes in two color variants; Champagne Gold and Carbon Black. The back panel of both the smartphones is removable, the SIM card slot and the SDcard slot is below the panel, you can also remove the battery.

The specifications of iVoomi Me 4 includes a 4.5 inches FWVGA display, 1.1 GHz Quad Core MediaTek processor, 1 GB RAM, 5MP rear camera, 5MP front camera, 4G VoLTE enabled, 2000 mAh battery, 8GB ROM with expandable up to 64GB and running the latest Android 7.0 Nougat.

iVoomi Me 5 is a little better than the Me 4, it comes with a 5 inch HD IPS LCD display, 1.2 GHz Quad Core processor, 2GB RAM, 8MP rear camera, 5MP front camera, 3000 mAh battery and 16GB ROM which is expandable to 128GB using SD card slot.

The look and feel of both the smartphone are okay, remove back panel is the only thing which is keeping this smartphone a step back. The loudspeaker is placed at the back which is not a good move because every other smartphone brand moved the loudspeaker to the bottom edge.

Both the smartphones feel good in hands and operating the smartphone is easy because of the size of the display. The camera yields mediocre results but it justifies the price very well and also getting a 5MP selfie camera.

Wrapping up

iVoomi is a Chinese brand trying to get its hands in Indian smartphone market but today’s budget smartphone market in India is very hard. iVoomi needs to do some extra ordinary in budget series to capture any percentage of the budget smartphone market in India. Me 4 and Me 5 smartphones are good value for money and both of the smartphones are available exclusively on Flipkart.
