Micromax, the company bemoaned of pathetic customer service showed off its latest flagships, the Canvas 6 and Canvas 6 Pro, at a grand event in Gurgaon last month where it also unveiled a new logo and brand identity.

The firm is no longer assumed to be a "budget" smartphone manufacturer and now they are making all efforts to be the Indian competitor for combating Chinese firms such as Xiaomi and LeEco known for budget phones with incorporated high-end hardware in most of their devices. Nowadays, most of the manufacturers have decided to push their marketing strategies with implementing high-resolution screens, top quality display panels, CPUs even fingerprint sensors and most of them also deciding to go with metal bodies for extremely low prices within the price bracket of 250$. However, Micromax decided to stick with about 4GB memory for attention and pull consumers towards themselves.

The Canvas 6 Pro might be Micromax's best-looking phone to date. The only things breaking up the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 are the earpiece, front camera, and notification LED. The power and volume buttons are on the right, the Micro-USB port is on the bottom, and the 3.5mm audio socket is on top. The back of the phone shell looks somewhat similar to HTC's Windows phone 8 models but the positive thing is it's completely removable.

There's also a slightly raised camera and flash is actually centered at the top alongwith Micromax's recently redesigned fit-shaped logo right beneath and a speaker grille at the bottom. Revealing the back panel opens up to a removable battery and individual slots, each for one micro SD card, one nano-sim and one more additional sim but micro-standards. However there is a screen protector and a microfiber cleaning cloth inside the box as an added bonus. The pricing bracket is however favoring the lower end which means this should be priced around less than 250$.
