Magicon has lifted the curtains from around the UltraSmart Q7 and at the same time, pegged the smartphone with a low-budget price of Rs. 8,999. To be honest, we wouldn’t blame anyone for mistaking the handset as the Samsung Galaxy S3 in the first glance, seeing as it bears an almost exact appearance as that of the South Korean conglomerate’s device.
Shedding some light on the GS3 look-alike’s specifications, we realize that it houses a 4.63-inch display reproducing pictures and videos at a resolution of 480 x 854. It gains steam from a dual core processor ticking at a clock speed of 1GHz which in turn is backed by 512MB of RAM.
The smartphone proffers a scoop full of Android Ice Cream Sandwich which at the given retail value, cannot be considered a total disadvantage. For imagining purposes, an 8MP camera featuring autofocus has been drilled next to a flash. A VGA webcam has been posted onto the front panel in order to facilitate video conferencing.
Apart from putting forth an onboard storage capacity of 4GB, the device allows users to enjoy expansions of up to 32GB with the help of a microSD card slot. The company has declared that a 1,600mAh battery will be powering the handset, but what it has yet to disclose are details pertaining to the approximate talk time and standby.
Even though users will not come in contact with connectivity features like NFC and DLNA, the phone does come bundled with decent attributes such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G and mobile hotspot. Apps to be on the lookout for comprise of Skype, Facebook and Fruit Ninja amongst others.
As far as arriving at e-retailers’ doorsteps is concerned, the Magicon UltraSmart Q7 has crossed the threshold of Infibeam and tradus.com wherein it has been made available at the aforementioned retail value. Not surprisingly, the company has unleashed the device in two colors, namely white and deep metallic blue, similar to the S3’s original hues. The phone will also be packing Aircel’s data plan parading 250 minutes of talk time, 250 texts and 1GB of data for 3 months.
