Features

Centre of attraction

Elegantly crafted to grab attention. Its new unique design features a patterned battery cover and slim bezel that enhances viewing experience to stand out from comparable devices.

Outshine the dark

Brighten your memories with everything you capture. Its rear camera LED flash ensures that every image you take is given the lighting treatment while two taps on the home button grant instant camera access.

Slim enough to fit in

Small in size but not in appeal. Features smooth, rounded edges that make it optimally designed for single-handed use while its compact dimensions make it slim enough to fit it anywhere you wish.

Just the boost you need

Capable to do more than just keep up. With improved Quad-core performance and enhanced RAM and ROM size that supports seamless multitasking, it exceeds what you think a smartphone can do.

Powered to last longer

Keep battery drain to a bare minimum. Ultra Power Saving switches the screen from colour to black and white, and closes all unneeded features and apps to significantly reduce consumption.
