Qmobile Noir A900 Complete Review
Pakistan smartphone manufacturers have improved as they started shipping android phones for their customers at a cheaper price. Though they do not produce their phone themselves, It still is a good sign that customers are getting their hands to high end devices at cheap prices on which china's low cost taking companies are producing. One of these phones is Qmobile Noir A900. Now let us see how is it compared to its competitors models, and whether its worth buying or not. This is only model that comes with OTA (Over-the-air) update. Though this is a big question to be answered by Qmobile. As it never was able to update customers dual core phones over visit to service centre without bugs. In reality this announcement has been made by the real manufacturer of this phone who has providid its first phone with its own customised UI like branded companies like Samsung with Touchwiz, Sony Mobile with BRAVIA Engine and HTC with Sense UI. See Complete Specs. Note it has dual sim in which sim 1 is a micro one
The attractive design of this phone is so catchy that , The moment you set your eyes on the A900, you know that the handset stands out from the crowd thanks to its slimmest 7.9mm profile compare to other Quadcore offerings.
The front of the phone has 4.7 inch 720p LCD IPS screen. Comparably large bezel space can be seen on the top and bottom but not so much on the sides of the handset which makes it quite comfortable to hold. A 2MP front facing camera is located above the IPS display to facilitate video calling. Their is no LED notification light as found in Noir A600. We placed it side to side with a Samsung Galaxy S4 and it was similar in size to that it is 0.3 inch short in actual screen size but you will feel exactly similar to Samsung Galaxy S4.
Below the screen lie three capacitive buttons for Android running devices and are sensitive enough. The backlighting below the buttons however tends to be a bit uneven though it does not get in the way of functionality.
Moving over to the back of the handset we can see Qmobile's logo sitting proudly at the bottom of the handset. While a DTS logo can be seen in the lower half. DTS is a unique audio capability of Qmobile Noir A900 that brings 3D surround sound for a theatre like experience but remember this is just for the headset and not for the speaker. The 8MP camera module and its accompanying LED flash is located towards the top left of the Android running phone. The Qmobile Noir A900 has a removable back cover as expected under which you can spot the dual SIM card slots and a micro SD slot. Soft touch, matte finish plastic used here feels good in the hands and you will feel this device no less then any premium device.
Memory & CPU
The phone comes packed with a mediatek MT6589 1.2 GHz quad-core processor with PowerVR SGX544MP GPU and did lag on few moments you will find in this review. One benefit of the device is that it supports apps to be stored to SD card. So memory is not a big issue for this and you can install upto 32 GB card.
Display
The Qmobile Noir A900 has a 4.7 inch 720p HD IPS display. The viewing angles are quite fair though not the best. Color reproduction is great and brightness of the IPS LCD screen is quite good for the normal use. This display has quite nice viewing angles. If you compare this is to current cheap model it has a right display among all but on the color reproduction and viewing angles Qmobile Noir A950 will take a lead but still its quite enough what you need.
Display did let us down under the sunny condition. And we are not happy with the display under sunny conditions. Though display was fairly visible.
Software
The Qmobile Noir A900 runs Android 4.2.1 under the hood with a custom UI layer on top. The major thing to mention here is this custom rom does lag a bit. Though one problem that we faced was Device some times hangs and becomes un responsive, But it comes back to life by re-inserting the battery. This problem must be rectified by the company, but we do not know if this problem is only with one unit, else this one did not give us severe problems as Qmoile Noir A20.
This phone comes with many skin interface if you do not like the custom UI provided you can switch to stock android skin.
The theme interface choser panel can be seen above where five different theme options are present. While the Android theme sticks closest to the stock experience, you can try out whichever theme you want. After looking all these themes we would recommend to swith to latest android launchers like Nova as none of them gives the feel of using fastest UI.
Synthetic Benchmark Scores
Quadrant 3939
Antutu 13117
Nena Mark 2 at 42 fps
Gaming
Frontline commando, Real Racing 3, Dead trigger, Virtual tennis, Subway Surfer, Temple Run 2, FIFA 14
Game that had few lags include Dark night.
Play store failed to support for few games including Nova3, Asphalt 7,8 so this phone is not for hardcore gaming.
Camera
Qmobile Noir A900 is equipped with an 8 MP camera that can also shoot video in Full HD. This is accompanied by a 2MP front facing camera. Our experience with the camera on the A900 was a mixed bag and we can’t say we were very satisfied by the results.
The camera module just pops out from a metal colored ring(we do not know its metal or colored plastic). An LED flash is located to the right of the phone. Coming to the image quality, Qmobile Noir A900 manages to take fairly noisy images even in bright lighting conditions.Camera module seems to responsible for dull pictures. Though their is gesture picture input but we are not happy the way they are given. But its good that you have option to Off this disastorous and annoying gesture input shots.
Color production is not natural, Pictures in the bright early morning scene turned out quite dim and the lens of the camera seems to be dark type. We will give here example of Nikon Nikor lens on point and shoot camera fails on the same as they take darker and dim images compare to same Sony CCD or G lens. (Note: After checking video capability it might be a software bug for the still shots).
Though there are not too many expectations with the camera of this phone for the still shots. Most surprising thing is above average quality of the videos. Detail levels are good with the sharp footage, but their are some occasions during the video when audio levels got missed. Over all video performance will not let you down for the price you have paid.
Connectivity
Comes with Bluetooth 4.0, WiFi and GPS. Though their is only Assisted GPS and no Glonass. Usb OTG is not supported. We have explained this functionality in Noir A20 review.
Battery Life
Battery life is decent but not too good, if you are an average user you can expect a days use if you charge daily overnight.
Final Verdict
The Qmobile Noir A900 is a decent phone with its super slim design and right materials used. Build Quality is not like other big brands but its not that bad either that you will miss premium feel. Its has its own class for the budget price you are paying. The price point of PKR 22,000 is something we did nt like at all. PKR 20,000 would be a right price but other expect to be kept in mind it is just price at launch and will go down as few days passed.
We are not happy with the camera and UI lags but we did recommend a solution that can be used :) for UI. Few games that were not able to be played made us surprise a bit as the Mediatek SOC is quite capable of playing all these games. It might be an issue that this phone is still not officially registered in the playstore complete support to this device may came later. Other Solution can be rooting for those Who are too keen to play those games and know how to root.
For other users Who just want to use an android with its fantastic look and are not too keen of clicking pictures from the phone, it is a better choice, else for gamers and heave users you should look for other models. Or look for what you can compronmise for its Pros.
- Pros
- - eye catching design
- - Display at par to other models (except A950)
- - Decent performance
Cons
- Below average camera
- UI Lags
- Below average camera
- UI Lags
Very good analysis. The camera is bull shit too noisy pictures. I hope its some software problem otherwise I will have to sell this phone and go back to a decent branded phone. This is the first time I have bought a low brand and I'm pissed off by the slight lag and idiotic camera
ReplyDeleteThanks alot, yes camera is as you just said, any one upgrading from Qmobile dual core smartphone might like this phone's camera, but no way for a person using any of branded mobile's.
ReplyDeleteDear admin you rock you rightly described the camera quality, i saw a review in which person is telling that it has very nice camera, and its quality is better than S2 plus :) , while when he showed camera, the color from the camera which he used for making video, obviously seems a good camera, has other colors and colors from the A900 is else where, so result is it does not produce natural colors :) Once again i would praise you, and pray for you that you be able to make these reviews, bcz any one can review, but not all can review with neutral and unbiased :)
ReplyDeletethanks and we would try our best in sha ALLAH :)
ReplyDeleteTek revu please tell me ya set kaysa ha can i buy this phone
ReplyDeleteSir you have any left out point that we did nt explain? or any confusion? plese ask specific issue
Deletebuying this phone especially in simple words we will tell you if you have been a user of Qmobile dual core series you might like this one as well, but if you have used a good branded phone so this phone is not for you
any further question plz feel free to ask
Noir a900 suna ha hang bohat hota ha,,lag bhi atay han,,,,kiya ya baat sahi ha,,,overall performance kaysi ha,,,aur durable ha ya set
DeleteYes it does lag but it should not be called as hang bcz the lag is noticable but it will not stop your operations and tasks, you can even get rid of this issue by selecting a different theme option that are already available with in the phone, for us NOVA launcher worked and it did not lag, so you can try either of the launchers
DeleteKuch loog kah rahay han k mobile hang ho jata ha aur jab tak battery nikal k dubara na lagao sahi nahi hota,,,aur ak aur issue k jab off kar k on karo to memory card show nahi hota jab tak computet k sath connect na karo,,,,aur battery off standby state may bhi consume ziyada hoti ha,,,,,,,,,,kiya ya problems ha noir a900 may? Please tell me
DeleteAli we did nt face these issues, it may be a issue with the particular handset, if you have any friend request him to share his experience here
Deletethanks
Teck revu please tell me ya set kaysa ha can i buy this
ReplyDeleteApp nay bhi ya problems apnay review may show ki han
ReplyDeletethis problem occured to us, handset became unresponsive sort of freezed but came to life, it just happened once and never again, as you mentioned memory card issue it never happened with us
DeleteBut Ali one thing personally speaking, all these handsets made by china OEM and provided to us by Qmobile are of below average quality, we rather prefer a better dual core
Sony Xperia L is a better choice for a user who is agreed to invest 22k, shud not mind 25k for Xperia L, even if you get some more discount with out warranty, but new handset is almost 5 times preferrable compare to Qmobile, bcz who knows what does it bring at the end to you a complete loss or around 5k if you go for 3k cheap option
Thanks for ur rply,,,,,,but mujay a900 ki look bari achi lagi ha aur mayra dil kar raha ha k yahi loon,,,,kiya galaxy s2 plus bhi good option ha
ReplyDeleteIf you compare Galaxy S2 plus with this sure S2 plus
Deletebut if you compare S2 plus with Xperia L, we will not recommend S2 plus, reasons and little comparison as follows
S2 plus has less powerful and less renowned company processor from Brodcom vs Xperia L has dual core Krait processor from Qualcom(The no 1 in mobile phn chipset making renowned for its high quality)
S2 plus has same memore as Xperia L
Sc plus has amoled Screen vs TFT lcd, S2 PLUS has an edge here but personally speaking if you would leave a better powerful phone xperia L for just an amoled screen? does nt make sense
S2 plus has an OLD design from 2011 vs Xperia L has it from recent
S2 plus will not be updated to key lime pie android 5.0 announced by samsung, vs Xperia L chipset is able to support, though their is no official wording from Sony until now
gaming aur camara dono may say kis ka acha ha
Deletegaming sure xperia L, and camera too,
Deletethe only thing you can say is less compare to S2 plus is the screen difference, otherwise nothing is downside, thats why we said to go for Xperia L
thanks for conversation mee too has same issue i am going to buy a900 within 1-2 day but now i think i go for sony xperia L ;) if possible can u compare xperia L vs HTC amaze
DeleteXperia L is better in terms of performance i.e speed for camera it might be tie or even HTC Amaze might take very minor edge at night situation especially, so decision is yours, to all those who buy xperia L it is a fantastic design phone but with it you must follow the instruction to open it carefully
DeleteGalaxy s2 plus second hand,,,
ReplyDeleteConsider Xperia L without warranty from market instead of S2 plus, a better processor option
DeleteMay nay suna ha k noir a900 ko computer k sath connect karo to us k baad problems ati han. ,,,please conform it
DeleteNo we did nt experience it
DeleteOk thanks tek revu,,,,,,i think noir a900 ki performance sahi ha jaysa k app nay bataya,,,,wasay hi log is k baray may ghalat batay karty han
DeleteAp apnay noir a900 ki performance say satisfied han?

DeleteFaizan it depends how the manufacturer has opyimized OS with hardware, though hardware is same but the OS customization is made in A900, which migh be the result of these games not able to run, other factors we discussed already

ReplyDeleteor kya ham is k liye koi zyada storage battrey lay saktay hain market say ?
ReplyDeleteit is not recommended, because recently due to similar issues S3,S4 and iphone5 have got blasted of electoured the user resulting in death, so do not use any thing for you phone that is not recommended by manufacturer or Qmobile
DeleteI am facing a problem with A900, the icons of installed apps stars multiplying and are shown two or three times in the main menu, each time i restarted my phone, one icon of each installed app is added in the main menu. Sir can you help me please!
ReplyDeleteI am facing the same problem Asif Hafeez, did you find a solution of this? if yes then please tell me.
ReplyDeleteA900 no more with us, so can not practically check it rite now, if some how we can get back to the device we would, but if it is possible for you reset your device then check installing apps again on the phone might do the job
DeleteXperia L or HTC Amaze 4G ?????? Which one is better?
ReplyDeleteXperia L if your main concern is speed of the device such that gaming
Deleteand Amaze if you main concern is a camera phone
but with amaze you have few facts to consider, its battery timing is too low compare to Xperia L, morever it comes to the market in grey(refurbished alot) even you might get a refurbished one with brightex warranty
and the very bulky weight of amaze, but it depends what other device u have used before, particularly ours experience with amaze was, it took 10 days to become familiar with its weight
Deleteanother point to look will be the design of xperia L is user frienly its button at right compare to top place is weird, and we personally will prefer xperial bcz
Deleteits processor
its design
latest device
will be updated while amaze will not for sure
and the battery problems attached with amaze
Hello.
ReplyDeleteA nice review showing its Cons. Can you tell me if it has Notification light at the front i.e. light during charging or blinking light for missed calls or sms?
Secondly, can you confirm if it is a 3G capable?
No lED notification light
DeleteYes 3G capable, as 3G comes to pakistan it would work
Thanks.
DeleteCan you tell me what sensors this device contains ?
you are welcome, will tell you about sensors, right now not possible, tomorrow in sha ALLAH
DeleteTek revu kiya noir a900 may real racing 3 nahi chalti?
Deleteyes it works and we have mentioned in the review which games work and which do nt, please refer to it
DeleteTek revu . can u tell me that does a900 have software update option that can update mobile os from 4.2 in future as other branded mobile phone have
ReplyDeleteyes it does have, the phone with the name of real OEM has already received one update, but it has not been customised for A900 yet
DeleteWill it be customized in future
Deletehope so as per Qmobile's promise :), btw this is first one that has been announced for OTA update from Qmobile or even the China OEM itself, and as china OEM gave update for its own version, so we can expect the same update for Qmobile
Deletebtw the update has arrived for improving camera, as we have written in our rebiew how pathetic camera is even compare to A20, a cheaper one, from same OEM and Qmobile
Should i go for xperia L , xperia P or A900 .. pLz tell me , by reading ur review i prefer u to tell me which one is better
DeleteIf you are asking the best among all you mentioned, keeping price aside, one and only xperia L, no second thought
DeleteHow would you compare A900 with G9? Which one's better? I know both have the same specs, and the only difference is the screen size, but still, will it be worth spending 22k on G9 or A900?
ReplyDeletebasically both have same bad camera, else tese two phones are better compare to others in the lot, andtey shud be preferredone over oter only for the screen size and design aspect you need, else no bog diff inside or in durability
DeleteAnd what do you have to say about the two coompanies, Qmobile and Gfive? Which one's better in terms of warranty, after sales service, tech support, etc.?
DeleteQmobile's support is not enough to say satisfactory but Gfive is still in new phase of development all the service network, but remember, Gfive is a company it manufactures it self and Qmoile is a rebranding company, but its been their for long has quite managed
DeleteShould I go for A900 or G9?
ReplyDeleteWhich one mobile phone I should buy... sony xperia L , samsung galaxy s3 mini or noir a900. I read out ur review and prefer u to tell me which one is better mobile?
ReplyDeleteSony Xperia L is best in the lot every thing is best among three, speed, camera design etc
ReplyDeleteOne thing is that sony xperia L is dual-core & noir a900 quad core? what do u say about that? and how is xperia L front camera result?
ReplyDeleteStand by , Up to 498 h (2G) / Up to 454 h (3G)
DeleteTalk time, Up to 8 h 30 min (2G) / Up to 9 h (3G)
Music play, Up to 43 h 12 min
endurance rating 39 hours
Thanks
Deletecan you tell me Xperia arco S is better than Xperia L or not??
go for acro S for its fantastic camera, plus water prooof and better screen resolution, xperia L is a lower midrande device while Acro S is previous flagship and now can be placed in upper mid range
DeleteThankz
Deletewelcome :)
DeleteThanks for the detailed review.
ReplyDeletePlz tell me the weight of this fone and also can we record 720p videos with it ?
Which quad core fone with 1gb ram is best to buy in range of Rs.20k
plz refer to the full specs page
Deletehttp://tekrevu.blogspot.com/2013/07/qmobile-a900-officially-confirmed-now.html
weight is 125g, and saying any best quadcore is difficult, as all you have to decide what is your priority no 1, please few answers that we gave to other readers that will make your mind to ask for the real features you want must and can not compromise
have any further questions, you are welcome :)
Thanks for answering.
DeletePlease confirm can we make 720p videos with its back camera?
yes
Deletehi i just red ur reviews. i m usein n8 n nw i want to have android onez so m confused. plz help me out here. m nt in to games ,i want a mob with best camera quality so which cel is good for me. xperia l. qmobile a900, amaze 4g, or any others?
ReplyDeleteif u have to by only camera then among the three mentioned best shooter is amaze 4G, but has less procseccor speed comapre to Xperia L as it has older version dual core only and Xperia L has got dual core krait so processor speed u can get xperia L is 1.25 times of Amaze,
Deletemore on it to mention is older version in amaze versus latest in Xperia L, another thing to be careful when buying amaze is be sure u r not buying a refurbished handset as this set has been their in the market for quite some time and, refurished sets are available most of places
we personally have used amaze during feb march 2013, and recommend this set only if u need best camera phone, when u can sacrifice with it low battery capacity and heavy weight that was the only reason we did nt keep it with us, otherwise it is a very good handset from HTC
hope we served you , have any further questions, you are welcome :)
thank u . but does the battery of amaze lasts for 2 days if i use it for couple of camera shots and calling time of 20 mins per day.?
ReplyDelete1 day might be possible but in simple words you will need to charge every day
Deleteother phones that have heavy usage 1 day time might give you 2 days, but any battery that is around 2000mAH, is entitled for every day charging
Dear all,
ReplyDeleteWhat will you preffer Qmobile A900 or Gfive G9,
Regards
basically its the screen size you prefer else the design of A900 is quite compact and fits easily in hand and pocket but few people do watch movies and excessive game play is easy for them in bigger screen so they prefer G9, morever G9 is preferred now after sudden price drop to 18k vs 22500 of A900, and now there is another Voice V60 and V70 option available at 19k and 20.5k respectively with a better camera 12MP, shud consider this as well for comparison before you finally decide a device for u, GUD LUCK :)
Deletehi i just sold out my GS3 and was looking forward to buy it .. do you think its a good decision my samsung galaxy 3 got couple of cracks on it thats why sold it but this phone looks smarter what do you advice?
ReplyDeleteit is an acceptable handset for the replacement of a smartphone from any branded company, but it is not as good as GS3, only thing u may like is its outer design, else every thing will lack S3
Deletehello sir! can you please tell me that which will be the better option. samsung galaxy s2 plus or Qmobile a900?
ReplyDeleteS2 plus, thugh not a very good handset, but compare to A900 we would say a reliable one
DeleteI'm using noir a900 and it's giving me low storage error even when I've moved all the apps from internal memo to sd card
ReplyDeletecheck how much memory is left with internal storage, when u move apps, still little part is remained with OS in the internal storage, and that storage if filled will give you same error
DeleteWhich fone is best between htc amaze and a900 ?
ReplyDeleteif you do not have any problem with the bulky weight of htc amaze, go for it else A900 is a better replacement from the lot of Qmobile if you want to stick witgh this company else go for xperia L, if you can increase some cash :)
DeleteDear admin
ReplyDeletePlz tell me how to connect OTG cable to A900????? Im trying many time to mount external memory but never connected
Plz tell me an apropriate solution for my problem
please refer to our Connectivity heading , in which we have already written OTG is not supported but even if you want it to be supported is by rooting the device, which may void your phones warranty, so we do not recommend
DeleteK thanks TEK REVU
ReplyDeletePLZ TELL ME HOW DATA TRANSFER THROUGH WIFI DIRECT Q A900
ReplyDeleteyou can use this link
Deletehttp://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/wifip2p.html
or just google it, what evre
er suits easy for you its not a big issue, procedure is present in many pages
Can A900 connect with other mobile through wifi direct ?????
ReplyDeleteyes
DeleteHey, just a question. My A900 shows .98 GB internal storage and 1.55 gb phone storage. I can't see 4GB storage written anywhere in storage section. Is there a fault with my phone or does it show exactly like that? Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteDo not get worried for this issue, your phone is OK and rest of the memory you do not see is taken by the Operating system installed on the phone
DeleteHow we can update the system of noir a900??????
ReplyDeleteif an update comes from the company and you get connected to internet, their will be a notification on phones update centre
DeleteBravo. Fantastic review!
ReplyDeleteCan you give me suggestion that if I want to spend 22k on a mobile phone, which phone I would preferably buy? (Keeping in mind, I will use android phone for the 1st time).
Thankx
what else you have used before? we wo nt advice u any of Qmobiles line up what range u said, you should consider something else, but if you can elaborate a little your requirements or expectations from your phone, we will definitely give you options that you have for the price :)
Deletei just used symbian sets of nokia.
ReplyDeleteI want a phone with good gaming and camera.
if you have been a user of Nokia u shul prefer some durable handset, likely sony or HTC and a little up from your range with good gaming and camera is Sony Xperia L
Deletealso, i am searching for quite a few days the phone which suits my requirement and price. my friends suggest to but used S2 or htc sensation but I want a box pack phone. i can up my range a bit like 2-3K if you suggest any good mobile phone. one of my friend refer me Xperia-M, a newly launched mobile.
ReplyDeletekeeping in mind a good camera, plus better processor, its better option among all you mentioned, Xperia M has better processor but not that great camera you need and the pricing is high right now, almost equal to Xperia L , just bcz its newly launched and price must go down after some time
Deletethankx for you suggestion bro :)
ReplyDeleteyou are most welcome, stay tuned we will review Xperia L in sha ALLAH soon
DeleteBro what is the market price of Xperia L?
ReplyDeletedepends on the city you are leaving, sony outlet price is 30500, even it is not available with warranty, one that we got is 28900, under 14 months sony warranty from a dealer, phone with no warranty is availabe for less them 3K official price or may be even low, depending the origin that handset has been imported from
DeleteOther than that we have a feeling that Xperia L in warranty will be available at a lesser price after few days, as the handset with warranty just arrived in the market officially from Sony pakistan, one available with no warranty is imported one which has nothing to do with the official release from sony pakistan, though these handset even do not get fault, but you shud prefer warranty one if their is no big diff
DeleteI have problem in this that there are automatically shortcuts created of different softwares and I can't deleted that becoz no option and Skype some timer hanging can any one plz tell me how to solve this issue or send mr reply on ageletron@gmail.com I am using this phone in dubai
ReplyDeletethis issue is present in this device, its not only your device, only thing till now is just keep using it as it is, as it does nt damage any thing, but its a drawback of the device
Deletebhai g koi acha sa launcher install kar lain ! mjhy bhi yehi problem thi
Deletenova prime kar liya ab koi problem nhi hai is handset say :)
http://www.freeapkandroidapp.com/2013/09/nova-launcher-prime.html
i'm facing the problem after factory reset of my a900. gtalk was missing, so i installed it from third party.
ReplyDeletenow the only problem left is. home key ligts are not displaying (3 lights on bottom), i tried in night n day..
when the ligts on? or where to do setting
kindly resolve
factory reset is one of the problem solver itself, but as Qmobile models respond almost similar problems you shud better contact Qmobile service center for the purpose
Deleteone of my friend said these bottom lights dont exists, but i think they exists, and not working with me.. right?
ReplyDeleteyes they do exist, right now handset is not with us, but as we reviewed, we are damn sure abt it, your frnd is mistaking here
Deleteplease share your experience with the camera, and if possible do send sample pictures at
Deletetekrevu@gmail.com
as we lost samples that had to be uploaded for those people who want to compare, we appreciate your feed back and experience about handset
i am used to of branded cell phones, and a900 camera is not good as compare to other branded phones.. pictures are noisy even with HDR.
Deleteaccording to box, a900 has 8MP rear camera and 2MP front camera
but in camera setting it says picture size 6MP with rear camera and 1MP with front camera
why is it so???????? :-O
we do not know how is it possible, bcz the same model we have checked, ans it is actually an 8MP device, camera quality yes is not that good, we just lost camera samples that we made,
Deletebut what we guess your problem is can be rectified by below procedure
just go to camera settings > Preview Size> set it to Standard (4:3) instead of Full screen, hope you got our point, and your problem will be solved
yes now i can see 8MP
Deletethanks :)
can u tell me any best camera setting.. which produce little better pics, less noisy.. HD camera shouldn't produce noise...
welcome :)
DeleteA900 camera module is itself noisy, till now we did nt see any OTA update seeding for A900 but the actual company did release a camera update for its own named brand, hope to see same for A900 soon, but for getting best result from what you have right now we are soon going to post a review on Voice Xtreme V60, its comparison to various branded handsets, taking them as benchmark, and few tweaks, before and after clicking pics are in process, we are checking them on daily basis and judging the result, but its not one day game so we will post it soon, stay connected to our facebook page
Can you please send me the backup of original software of Qmobile A900, by taking backup from the cell phone, i want to restore on my cell.
Deletedecentzuhaib@gmail.com
Zubair we no longer have this model with us, we encourage our other readers to help you in this regard
Deletehi, admin, can you tell me, A900 camera is better or Voice V60???
ReplyDeleteFaizan the camera of V60 is good compare to A900, and there is no doubt in it :)

ReplyDeletebro kindly let me know about OTA...
ReplyDeletehow to update????
m using A900
m wating....
OTA is over the air update, it means when company releases the update, a notification will pop out from update centre of your cell phone, you will allow to update when connected with internet, and it will automatically start downloading and then applying that changes, it is similar to that of applications are updated from Playstore
DeleteI jxt downloaded ota
DeleteBut app says ur manufacturer does not installed
Now what should i do?
I jxt take over on double icon problem by installing go launcher
Tell me the solution for Ota...
Thnx
when u installed this OTA? was nt it able to be applied? or what is the issue now, normally when you install OTA in any phone the next thing it does is it brings changes to ur current OS and the firmware changes to updated one, in your case what else is happening?

Admin, I have a little trouble with A900 PC Suit. Once I bought it brand new I took the phone book from my earlier Nokia E5 via bluetooth. It well transferred and ready to use through the Q handset. Later when I connected to its PC suit via data able, I am able to view all the names under the phone book but cannot see the numbers by clicking into every particular contact. I have also tried well to make a backup by copy paste into a specific folder for an easy folder management but unable to perform it too. My question is 1. How can I view the numbers in PC suit and 2. How can I save contact manually other than going into back up option, G Cloud etc. Seeking assistance. Regards.
ReplyDeleteyou are viewing through pc suite of Noir A900? is it necessary due to some reason ?
Deleteif you want to view your contacts on pc here is one solution, just install Contacts back up and restore that supports that back up file to be easily read in HTML i.e your PV prowser and you can copy paste from their, their are many in playstore, just check which one works for you
Yes icon duplication is an issue. Solution is to install any launcher like nova launcher.
ReplyDeleteyes we have mentioned it in previous comments while telling solution to some one, btw other than icon duplication issue, other lagging problems are also cured by installing launcher, and VOVA is a good one for that :)
DeleteI hav been using this set for 2 months. Its software/ stock rom though not bad has certain issues. Launcher is laggy. Storage soace for applications is very low and a lot is lying vacant for no reason. I had my sms rejected due to low storage. Though i was having lots of space on sd card.i rooted my phone to increase storage. I was not finding good rom . i went to their customers service. They said that my warranty is voided. Now i hav installed infinity hd2 rom. Thts working well. But my warranty is voided. Inshort their stock rom is very buggy and laggy.
ReplyDeleteyes sure Qmobile has very bad service centre dealings, and they have to correct it now, else their are compitent replacements available now, and their monopoly of pricing high is going to end as well :)
DeleteI have been using noir a 950 for 2 months. it has a little problem with keyboard. it stop working when i am typing. please tell me how can resolve this problem. thanks
ReplyDeletejust install any other keyboard from play store and then check if problem still exist
Deleteif you do not find any, then tell us we will send you link
Deleteplease tell me which phone is better a900 or nokia lumia 520
ReplyDeleteFane it depends on personal wish first diff is the WP vs Android OS difference, second is Nokia vs Qmobile, both handsetsare gud in their own capacities, this is not a fair comparison as Nokia 520 is just PKR 15000, device while A900 is PKR 22000 device, well if dual sim, high gaming, and multiple apps of Android is not needed, lumia 520 is better choice with better build quality and long time serviceability guarantee of the product compare to inferior quality of Qmobile
Deletethanks for reply.....i m comfortable with both os...i need a good camera with dual sim options. can u please recommend me any smartfone
Deleteur final maximum range?
DeleteMax 22000
ReplyDeleteQmobiles range is A600, A900, A20 and so on, Huawei A650, Voice V60 and V70, we have reviewed V60 and A900 in depth , please refer to our youtube channel and v60 blog review , and find out why voice is better and in what things it has limitation

along with camera samples, both video and photos, judge urself :)
one last question......can u comment on korean fones available in market.....r they reliable ....mostly these fones are available copy of S4 or S3
Deletepersonally checked S3 , S4 and s3 mini copies, all has same processor, only s3 mini was comparable to some extent with original s3 mini, but it also had problem of damaging battery, so our advise is not to go for these copies, instead their are korean handsets, i.e original samsung but made for korean and they are locked to be used in korea, if you get one of those, unlocked for local use, then that is the actuall original thing else, go for voice, Q, G5, they are better choices in comparison to mentioned clones
Deleterecently i buy a900 but problm is that sim not inserted in sim1 slot.
ReplyDeleteking are you talking about size of sim?
DeleteIm confused, should i buy this or something else at the same price?
ReplyDeletewait for a while as prices are going to get down, as Octa core devices are soon coming, so Prices will go down for these quadcores, ir respective of the company
ReplyDeleteY
ReplyDeletebecause those octacores will launch at nearly same price of these quadcores
DeleteHey author nice review please suggest me any good phone. Screen size not below 4.7
ReplyDeleteMy range is 30000pkr
Your requirements? single sim or dual?
Deletehi m sibghat plzz tell me samsung s3 e210l which is orignal korean with lte 2 gb ram 32 gb storange is better or qmobile a900 in battery timing
ReplyDeletes3 korean
Deleteworst phone .. I made a mistake and bought this phone .. it hangs a lot and when it hangs you have to remove battery and put it back power button wont shutdown this phone when it hangs.and other serious problems with firmware . 3rd party apps wont work as on branded phone .camera sucks.. get sony xperia L instead it has muck batter camera and stable software which wont hangs or freezes. and least but important with branded phones you can get update time to time plus you have xda forum developers support means you can get custom rom/kernel/tweaks etc.. if thing go wrong with stock firmware.
ReplyDeletesad for ur bad exp abt this phone, in our review you will find both pros and cons, of the phones that we try very high to describe in the review,
Deleteofcourse branded company has invested alot of time in their research, and that comes with a price to pay, and better believe and customers service and other support as you mentioned, worldwide community to help:)

ReplyDeletei m using a900 its working is gud upto now ,only issues are that it is not updating on ota with error(update failed check your network) while network is working (wifi) guide me about this, one other thing is that wifi direct is not conecting with glaxy s2 wifi direct.
walaikum as salam
Deletecheck wifi direct with any other handset, are you able to download update? or it is not even downloading? if you do not know how to download, we have share a video of how to update any handset via OTA, the handset used is xperia L
following is the link

AOA..
ReplyDeleteI have a little problem..
Me ny A900 me sms snd karny kl lea Hover Chat Application Install ki hoe ha.. But jb me multiple sms snd karta hn to warning ana shru ho jati ha jis me pocha hota ha k ye ap multiple sms snd kar rhe ha app allow kary gy ya deny to allow karny py sms snd hota ha..
To me ny pochnaa tha k is ko permanently kasy allow karwao ta k mujhy ye warning na bar bar show ho..
it depends on the particular app, if app has that option then only you can
Deletebtw warning comes from app or the default OS warning?
walaikum as salam
DeleteAoA kya ap mujhe bata sakte hen k a900 or xperia L me se konsa axha he? or agar me xperia l without warranty lun to is ki markeet me price kia hogi? or kuch tips jis se refurnished mobile ka idea ya pehchan ho jai? or a900 or xperia l me se konsa mobile gaming k liye zyada axha he?
ReplyDeletewalaikum as salam, over all xperia L is better handset in comparison, now to ur second concern abt buying with out warranty and how to identify a refurbished phone answer is better buy handset with a reliable dealer, thats what you can do bcz in most of cases every possible ways are used to cheat in the market, only reliable handset sellers provide you good hansets
Deleteboth of them have similar prformance, but in both few games are not available, but you can install every game by using .apk files
DeleteMy noir a900 is heating when I use why?
ReplyDeleteon what king of usage it becomes hot?
