iNew to Introduce L3 and U5 Budget Smartphones in Pakistan Soon
iNew, the newest smartphone player in Pakistan, is ready to bring two new budget smartphones in the local market very soon. The company has recently started the teaser campaign on social media by giving the hints about model numbers and their salient features.
The new budget devices will be L3 and U5.
iNew L3:
The first one is an elegant smartphone with double edge glass, fairly similar to what Sony does with its Xperia range. As per the information available on internet, both sides of glass are well protected by Gorilla Glass 3 and the frame is made of aluminum. The Nano-coating thing makes it splash proof, which is totally different from water proof, so don’t just throw it in the water.
It packs a 5” IPS OGS display with a 720p resolution. OGS or One Glass Solution makes the screen more responsive, however it makes it more prone to damage. On the inside it comes with a 64Bit quad core processor with 2GB of RAM and 16GB on-board storage. A duo of 13MP and 5MP Sony Lenses are there to suffice the photography needs.
This dual SIM smartphone is 4G LTE ready and will support both 4G networks in Pakistan. It is also equipped with IR Blaster, and doubles as the remote control for most of home appliances. The phone is packed with a 2150mAh battery and runs on Android Lollipop OS.
There is no word on the pricing but we can assume that it will go on sale for around Rs. 21,000.
