Panasonic Eluga using Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread (Android 4.0 will get updates ICS) and is equipped with features like 8GB of internal memory, NFC, 8 megapixel auto focus camera, and a battery capacity of 1150mAh. The front of the Panasonic Eluga keeps the sharp theme going - not just with the piano black 4.3-inch AMOLED display, but by almost seamlessly blending the screen with the thin bezel.

Theres not really much room for anything else up front, save for the Android control buttons, a tiny Panasonic logo, a minuscule speaker grill and a titchy LED for notifications - and if thats one too many superlatives for small, we apologise, but the Panasonic Elugas raison dêtre is its minute attributes.

The power button, especially, is a tricky little blighter. And we mean little. Sure, Panasonics gunning for a slimline, minimalist beauty here - but would it really have hurt to make what is a very frequently used button (it also doubles as the sleep/wake one) a bit more accessible?

Panasonic Eluga DL1 User Manual GuideThere’s also no memory card expansion - I’m guessing because that would add another slot for potential water ingress - so you are stuck with the built-in 8GB. After system requirements that means you end up with 4.3GB for files and 1.4GB for apps and the former is unlikely to be enough for many users.
