Hey guys, Manjeet has said it all, pros and cons are clearly stated. It's left you to evaluate and pick your choice. But, this phone is selling like hell.
Kudus to you Manjeet very impresive insight, no bias whatsoever.

Hectordj, 31 Dec 2013Is Instagram available in this phone Yes the official instagram app is available in the store, it's a beta app. But 6tagram is a very good third party app which works great.

wasted ₹10000 on this phone
Bad things about this phone. HIDDEN FACTS
1 - NO FILE MANAGER
This phone has no File Manager through which you can see the files on SD Card and Phone.
You can only see photos, videos and songs in the Gallery only and can share them. You cannot rename,cut,copy,paste.
2 - Cannot share important file types like PDF with Bluetooth.
3 - Office can show documents present in a particular folder in phone memory only.
No SD Card support in Office.
4 - WhatsApp. In WhatsApp we cannot share videos and songs. We can only share photos.
Cannot set background in WhatsApp. Connectivity problems and hangs up many times.
Facebook app is also very slow and not up to the mark like in an Android Phone. Cannot properly upload photos and download them. Connectivity problems are also there.
5 - Microsoft doesn't allow 3rd party software's to access your videos, songs etc.
Even if developers want to make a app the operating system does not allow them to access all things. It’s the limitation of Windows Phone.
6 - Apps cannot open all the things present in your phone. You cannot record calls in Windows 8 phones.
7 - No FILE MANAGER means you will have to connect your phone to pc to make folders, cut, copy, paste, rename Etc.
Seriously you will CRY when you will find that there is no FILE MANAGER. Apps are available on the store but your operating system doesn't allow them to access all the files.
8 - Cannot download and save files in internet Explorer as there is no File Manager. Opera Browser is not available and other browsers are not allowed to save files on your phone. There is no download option you can only view the files, videos but cannot download them.
9 - Limited memory of 8 GB. Cannot install apps, games and maps on SD Card. The system and contacts and other things will consume ~ 3 GB. So you have only about ~ 4.5 GB left. Installing a big game will consume lot of space.
10 - Be careful while spending ₹10000 on this phone.
Even older Nokia phones like 5130, 2700 have all these features and costs less than 4000.
Better buy Android or Symbian phones which have all these features.
---I am a college student and I find it very difficult to share question papers ( PDF format) and other multimedia files via Bluetooth or Social network. Cannot properly download and save files and share them.
My Recommendation
If you are a college student or business person then this phone is not a good choice. But if you are a gaming enthusiast then you must go for this phone.
It plays almost all games (however big) very smoothly and without hanging. Maybe its NFS or Modern Combat or Ashphalt. The touch of the phone is also very smooth and display is also impressive.
