Author’s Opinion

Yu almost took a year to launch a smartphone with a teaser that highlighted “FACE OFF” but we don’t think its a “FACE OFF” type of smartphone. The smartphone comes with a decent specification for the price.

Yu Ace is in direct competition with Redmi 5A which is also available at same price for both variants. Two things which make Yu Ace stand out against its competition are 18:9 display aspect ratio and a massive 4,000 mAh Battery.

Overall, there is nothing impressive on this smartphone at this price point, you can still consider Redmi 5A which come with Snapdragon 425 processor or you can also wait for Redmi 6 which is expected to launch on September 5.
