Lava, the Indian mobile phone maker, has announced its new budget smartphone in the market, dubbed as Lava BeU. The company says that the phone is designed for women and comes with a crystal-studded design with floral speaker mesh.
Another reason for the device to be women-focused is that it comes pre-installed with a safety application. The smartphone is priced at ₹6,888 (approx. $93)and is set to be available for purchase in India from 5th January. It has already been listed on the company’s website in a Rose Pink color.
The device features a 6.08-inch HD+ display that offers a 1560 x 720 pixels screen resolution with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and a 2.5D curved screen. There’s a waterdrop notch on top of the display for housing the front camera.
Under the hood, the device is powered by an octa-core processor clocked at 1.6GHz but the specific model is not yet known. It comes in just a single memory variant that packs 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage and a microSD card slot for expanding the storage.
