At an aggressive price of Rs 26,990 in the market, almost the same as the previous flagship models of all leading mobile brands in the market like Samsung Galaxy S III, HTC One X and LG Optimus 4X HD, Panasonic P51 has been launched in India a couple of days ago but is it as good as the contenders in the market?

Pros: 5 inch display,
Asahi DragonTrail scratchproof and damage-proof glass for added durability
1280x 720 resolution,
Stylus
Front HD camera
Android 4.2

Cons: Only 1.2 GHz Quad core (others have better)
Slightly heavier than the others
Nothing special compared to the weathered players in the market


With no major attractive features other than the stylus and the latest version of Android 4.2 Jellybean, at the price range, the phone doesn't really stand out. In fact it is inferior to a few others in the processor segment.

However, if you want a unique style that hasn't been tapped hitherto in India, go for it! You won't go wrong unless you are worried about the processor being slightly slower than the best performers.
