Is it any good?
The O2 is a 4G phone that Lava's store lists at ₹7,999 for its one version, 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, in Imperial Green, Majestic Purple and Royal Gold. It is for buyers who want plenty of memory and do not need 5G.
A Unisoc T616 runs a 6.5-inch HD+ screen at 90Hz with a punch-hole 8MP selfie camera. The back is AG glass, the main camera is 50MP, and the 5,000 mAh battery charges at 18W. Storage is UFS 2.2, and a dedicated microSD slot takes cards up to 512GB alongside two SIMs. It weighs 200g and is 8.7mm thick.
The catch is age. Lava's software page lists the O2 as end of life: it launched on Android 13, got Android 14, and its security updates ended in November 2025. The Yuva 3 Pro has the same chip, the same 8GB + 128GB, the same 50MP camera, the same dimensions and the same price, so the choice comes down to looks.
