The Xolo Q1020 smartphone has been given an official launch in India via the company’s Facebook account and it’s being touted as an attractive release with an alluring price tag of Rs 11499. The phone is a mid-range one and it comes with an eye-catchy wooden finish which is only visible on the sides.
The rest of the smartphone is basically made from the same old polycarbonate composite, but the premium accents are a nice touch. For the price being asked, the Xolo Q1020 packs a lot of great features and it can also be seen as a viable alternative to Motorola’s new Moto G.
Visuals come via a 5-inch HD IPS touchscreen that’s under the protection of Corning Gorilla Glass 3. Also covered by the scratch-resistant later is a 2MP front-facing camera, while the rear flaunts a 13MP snapper with Sony’s Exmor RS sensor that should help deliver better imaging in low-light conditions.

Additionally, it offers an entire gigabyte of RAM and 8GB of flash storage which can be expanded by at least 32GB more via the microSD card slot. Other features include a 2100mAh battery with up to 12.52 hours of 3G talk time and dual SIM support.
