The Lava 504Q+ has got a rectangular design with metallic front frame and back cover. The phone packs in a 5-inch display with 720p resolution. The build quality is good and it does feel premium to hold. It has also got air gesture controls for various apps, including music, FM radio, gallery, camera, etc.
The phone comes with a few preloaded apps like Sketch, Variety Theme, and My Notes. Powered by MediaTek MT6582 processor, the RAM is not enough for a smooth performance. The phone did slow down while launching apps and switching between them. It simply couldn't support heavy graphic apps. The camera captures good images during bright sunny days but they are grainy in low light. It also packs in 8 GB of internal storage of which only around 5.4 GB is user accessible. The battery onboard lasts a full day on a single charge
