Karbonn, the maker of entry level Android smartphones, has launched
its newest device called the Karbonn A30. The dual SIM handset runs on
Android 4.0 ICS. The smartphone is powered by a 1Ghz dual core processor
which promises improved gaming performance and a better web browsing
experience. While we’re a bit short on details here, we expect the phone
to be powered by Mediatek’s dual core solution.
The screen size is 5.9 inches which is one of the biggest smartphone
displays we’ve come across. Over at the back you’ll find an 8MP camera
with LED flash. A 1.3MP front facing camera is also provided for video
calling. In terms of connectivity features you’ll find 3G, WiFi and
Bluetooth. The phone is equipped with a 2500 mAh battery which is pretty
amazing and rare to see in a phone in this range. The memory card slot
allows for up to 32GB of expandable storage. The phone has been priced at Rs. 10,990 and will ship in black or white with a complimentary leather cover.
[Update: Karbonn has officially launched the device as A30 Ta Fone
for Rs. 12,900 (MRP). Saholic has also increased the price to Rs.
11,500.]
