Design
The Lava Iris X1 Selfie is available in two color variants. White and Black. So we had an opportunity to review the white color variant of the smartphone. The phone seemed to be easy to hold, sturdy and as there is a free screen guard in the box, which makes it more safer. There is a silver bezel surrounded over the phone which enhances the overall looks of the smartphone. The volume rocker buttons are on the right hand side of the smartphone.
The lock/power button is just below the volume rocker buttons. There are three touch buttons just below the screen. These are Recent Apps, Home and Back Button. Below the phone there is a microUSB slot for charging the phone and also useful for transferring the data. You can also see a microphone near it.

The smartphone is having a good front camera which is useful for clicking good selfies even in the low light conditions with the help of the flash. This is a boon to all the Selfie takers.
So taking a selfie is more easier and more useful. I have seen people who struggle while clicking a selfie because of the low light conditions. In Lava Iris X1 Selfie this problem is solved as the user can easily click good selfies using the flash in low light conditions. Whether it be night walks, trekking at night, monsoon atmosphere, a selfie with a flash will be very much helpful to give a beautified image which will enhance the users look.
