Currently the Micromax is selling around 5,500 Canvas 2 handsets daily & have started testing Canvas 3.

Some companies never fail to surprise you. Micromax, an Indian handset player, is one such company. At a time when a handset manufactures usually don't bring sequel of their popular handsets immediately, Micromax is planning to bring a new handset under its popular Canvas series every two month.

Micromax's co-founder and business director, Vikas Jain said to The Mobile Indian, "Micromax Canvas II has been a hot selling smartphone for us and we plan to launch a Canvas smartphone every two months from now onwards."

He added, "We are currently selling around 5,500 Micromax Canvas 2 handsets daily and have started testing Micromax Canvas 3. I will not be in a position to share the exact time frame by when Canvas 3 will be launched. But do expect something around March."

Micromax Superfone Canvas A110 (Canvas 2) is the successor of Canvas A100, and is available for Rs 9,999. It has a 5 inch screen with 800x480 pixels resolution as its predecessor but comes with an 'IPS panel' that offers better viewing angle.

Micromax Superfone Canvas A110 boasts an 8 megapixel rear camera that too with dual flash. Also Canvas A110 has a dual core 1 GHz processor against a single core unit in the Canvas A100. We have already done a review of the device.

Apart, from that we have compared it with other devices like Samsung Galaxy Ace, Karbonn A30and Karbonn A21 which are available in the same price bracket.
