Vingroup has partnered with Qualcomm to launch an ultra-affordable 4G smartphone in Vietnam. This phone called Vsmart Bee Lite is priced at only VND 600,000 ($26) and is only available for existing 2G and 3G customers of state-run carrier Viettel.
The Vsmart Bee Lite is just another entry-level smartphone, as per its specifications and features. But its price tag makes it stand out from the crowd.
Talking about specs, this device sports a 5.45-inch FWVGA+ (480 x 960 pixels) 18:9 display (LCD) on the front with a 2MP selfie camera above it. Whereas, the back of the phone houses a 5MP primary camera.
Further, the handset is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 215 chipset paired with 1GB RAM and 16GB internal storage. If needed, users can expand the storage using a microSD card (up to 64GB).
Other features of this phone include single-band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS, accelerometer, proximity sensor, light sensor, 3.5mm headphone jack, and MicroUSB port.
That said, due to lower hardware, the device runs Android 10 Go Edition and is backed by a 2,550mAh battery. Last but not least, it will be available in two colors – Black & Green and will come with 18 months warranty
Most importantly, this affordable 4G smartphone will be only available under Viettel’s ‘1 for 1 upgrade’ and ‘switch for 101 days’ programs to push 4G among 2G and 3G handset users in Vietnam
