With the number of smartphones currently flooding the market, there are a number of brands and devices to choose from in any category you want. So it doesn't matter if you are a low budget or a high budget guy. There's always something for everyone to look forward to.

 

Needless to say, the current domestic market is quite the one that's dominated by the likes of Samsung and Apple. However, there are avenues being made by the likes of Micromax and Karbonn who are also trying quite hard to catch up in this never ending race to the top.

 
Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 Vs Nokia X+: Specs Comparison

Now two devices that are trying to do just that are the recently released Nokia X+ and Micromax's Canvas Doodle 3 handsets. Both the devices have been priced with the Indian masses in mind, and are expected to sell quite decently before the end of the current year.

While Nokia is looking to ride high on the "Nokia's first ever Android phone" tag for the X+, similar to the X offering before this, the Canvas Doodle 3 recently got through a few minor adjustments to its RAM to make the device more attractive for customers.

So, if both the devices are taken and a comparison is struck between them, who do you think will have a better chance of surviving (if not boasting grand business) the market before the current financial year ends? We take a closer look at both the devices from the specs point of view.

Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 Vs Nokia X+: Verdict
Both the Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 and the Nokia X+, it is quite needless to say at this point, are both targeted at an audience that tries to stick to the lower segment of the market. While the Nokia X+ seems like a good phone, we are yet to see if the device indeed lands in the popularity zone.

The Doodle 3, on the other hand, has arrived in a revamped version from Micromax with 1GB of RAM, an upgrade from the previous 512MB RAM. And guessing from the fact that we are staying in this price range, the Doodle 3 is a much better option.
