Panasonic has unveiled two new phones for the Indian market – the Eluga Ray 500 and Eluga Ray 700. Both phones feature large batteries, metal bodies and Panasonic’s ARBO AI Assistant.
Eluga Ray 500
The Eluga Ray 500 has a 5-inch HD screen with a 2.5D curved glass. It has 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage and is powered by the quad-core MT6737 processor.
The Eluga Ray 500 has dual rear cameras. One is an 8MP 120° wide-angle lens with a f/2.4 aperture and the other is a 13MP sensor with a f/2.0 aperture. The front facing camera is a 5MP f/2.4 sensor.
The phone has a 4000mAh battery and a hybrid dual SIM slot (nano only, 128GB max). There is a 3.5mm audio jack at the top and a micro USB port at the bottom. It also has a fingerprint scanner buried under the home button.
The Eluga Ray 500 measures 144.26 x 71.26 x 9.2mm and weighs 163g. It will sell for ₹8,999 (~$140) and will come in Champagne Gold, Marine Blue, and Mocha Gold.
Eluga Ray 700
The Eluga Ray 700 packs a bigger 5.5-inch FHD display with 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 3. It has 3GB of RAM and features MediaTek’s MT6753 octa-core processor. Storage is 32GB and can be expanded via a MicroSD card slot.
The Eluga Ray 700 doesn’t have dual rear cameras but it makes up for it in other ways. There is a 13MP f/2.0 camera on the rear with PDAF and the front camera is a 13MP f/2.2 sensor with its own LED flash too.
