The rear camera can shoot 720p videos and supports various modes such as Auto, Normal, Night, Sunset, Party, Portrait, Landscape, Night portrait,Theatre, Beach, Snow, Steady Photo, Fireworks, Sports and Candle Light. The phone also has a dedicated camera key for quicker access to the camera.

Here’s a quick look at the specs of the XOLO Q800 smartphone:
4.5-inch, qHD IPS display with a resolution of 960x540 pixels
3G, EDGE
Wi-Fi
GPS with A-GPS support
Bluetooth,
8MP rear camera, 1.2MP front camera
4GB internal memory, expandable up to 32GB via microSD cards
MicroUSB support

The XOLO Q800 packs in the YAMAHA 168 PA music system, and includes most proprietary Google apps. It is fuelled by a 2100 mAh battery.

XOLO plans to launch a number of handsets with quad–core processors in the coming quarter and name this series 'QCORE'. Last month, some online retailers started selling the XOLO A1000, but the company soon announced that the phone was also available through official channels. The phone has an HD display and is manufactured using One Glass Solution (OGS) display technology, which reduces the girth of the phone.

The XOLO A1000 phablet has an expected shipping time of seven to eight days and is priced at Rs 13,999. At that price, one can also get the Micromax A116 Canvas HD, which was officially launched last month. Although the XOLO A1000 is priced decently, we think it should have been priced closer to Rs 10,000. At that range, these specs will be more than just a good deal.

Some specifications of the XOLO A1000 are:
5-inch HD IPS display with a 1280 x 720 resolution at 295 PPI
Dual-SIM, 2G, 3G (HSDPA: 7.2 Mbps, HSUPA: 5.7 Mbps)
Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Wi-Fi hotspot
Bluetooth 4.0 with A2DP
GPS with A-GPS
8-megapixel rear camera with LED Flash, BSI sensor and HDR, 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera with BSI sensor
4GB internal memory with microSD expansion slot support up to 32GB
