YU forced us not to buy their Smartphones again !

Micromax's sub-brand Yu Televentures is all set to launch "YU Yunicorn" on 19th May and I am pretty much sure , many of us will not buy YU smartphones again !



YU Yureka was a great hit and after that Smartphone only Micromax's YU became popular in India . The first impression of the Smartphone was amazing but we were not fully aware of the Smartphone at that time ! 




Though One cannot judge a Smartphone and a company in a single day or two ! But , Now YU has forced many of us not to buy their Smartphones .

1. One of the worst after sales service -


Buying a smartphone is more than just about picking up a phone you liked and making a purchase. A phone may look good on paper, but there's more to a phone than just the paper specs. After-sales is something equally important, if not more.

And Yes ! YU has one of the worst after sales service . I own a Page of Micromax Yureka which was made to help Yureka users , but I was wrong ! When the Company can't support their customers then Who Am I ?

Below are some (Though There are many ) "Reviews on YU" -




And why we need After sales service ? Because YU Products are made of cheap quality ! 


2. No Android Updates -

I think Google is all set to reveal Android N on 18th May ? Isn't it ? And YU users are still waiting for Marshmallow on their Smartphones ? 

The company has launched only few devices and they can't even handle software updates for these devices even !

Though I understand Marshmallow is a big update , But can't you even provide a patch for the bugs that were present in Android 5.1.1 ? 



I never Bought a YU Smartphone , but this article is for all the fans of my page Who forced me to write this Article !

Recently YU updated Yureka to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop . 
Although Its the time to Roll Marshmallow update but still they rolled Lollipop , May be because YU wants to provide a Bug free Android 5.1.1 ( Cyanogen os 12.1 ) update to Yureka . 



YU Yureka users were already facing many problems like battery draining issue , Heating issue etc after Lollipop 5.0.2 update , But After the new 5.1.1 update these problems became more visible .
