New Micromax Canvas Knight 2 4G LTE smartphone debuts for Rs 16299

The all new Micromax Canvas Knight 2 has been launched in India with a tag of Rs 16299 and it happens to be the first ever 4G LTE capable smartphone in the company’s portfolio of devices. It’s a reasonably good looking handset and offers some decent features to boot. It will hit stores on June 10, that’s next week.

The Micromax Canvas Knight 2 is priced just right for the competition in the market right now. The Xiaomi Mi 4i which is stuffed with similar specifications for Rs 12999, suffers in the memory department with just 16GB of ROM and no microSD card slot, even if it does have a full HD touchscreen of 5 inches. Phicomm’s Passion 660 may not sound tempting even at Rs 10999 since the company has yet to establish its presence in India.

So the Canvas Knight 2 is pretty much the boss of the territory at the rate it sells for. Those who are willing to plop down Rs 2700 more for extra RAM, memory space and an Intel Atom processor, can go for the Asus ZenFone 2. The Micromax phone comes with Android Lollipop out of the box and works on 2GB of RAM. Its hoarding room can be expanded by 32GB and there’s a 2260mAh battery aboard.

The front and back of the Canvas Knight 2 are protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3 to prevent them from succumbing to nicks and bumps. Its audio is driven by Cirus Logic Wolfson Stereo WM8998. The main snapper of 13MP with a Sony IMX214 CMOS sensor and the 5MP webcam are powered by Largan Precision, supplier of the iPhone’s camera module. The company’s Canvas Fire, Unite and Nitro series will also move onto 4G in the future.
