What the Experts Are Saying?

Ahead of Diwali, Boltt as a brand has evolved and is ready to set fire in the entry-level segment with a value-for-money phone. Boltt Evo sets itself apart with an all-day battery, decent performance, fun cameras, a good display, and a clean Android experience. While its charging speed is not up to the mark and it's a hefty phone to carry around, these are minor compromises. In a market that lacks good affordable phones, a smartwatch maker's first phone gets the timing right with a pretty generous offering for the price.
