Vernee recently came into the limelight for its 6GB RAM smartphone, the Vernee Apollo. Since the reveal of the device, we have seen a few more flagships featuring 6GB RAM, making things even more competitive. But apart from the Apollo, the company has another smartphone in the pipeline, the Vernee Apollo Lite version which will feature slightly toned down specs for a cheaper price tag of $199.99. Today, Vernee has released more details about the phone’s battery.

Vernee reveals that the Apollo Lite will come with a 3180mAh battery which is pretty much standard among flagship these days. What’s more, the phone will come with Mediatek’s Pump express 3.0 fast charging feature which the company claims charges the phone from 0 to 75% in under 30 minutes.

The company also reveals that the phone comes with a brushed metal unibody design to make sure that it looks premium. Further the specs ensure that the phone will be quite competitive in today’s market.

To recap, the Vernee Apollo Lite comes with the Helio X20 deca-core chip under the hood with a 5.5-inch FHD arch display. Inside, you get 4GB of RAM and and 32GB of internal storage as standard. At the back, you have a 16MP camera, while on the front, there will be a 5MP shooter. Finally, the phone will run on the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS out of the box. Other features of the phone include dual SIM, 4G LTE, compass, Gyroscope and USB Type-C port.

Vernee rose to fame because of its power packed Vernee Apollo flagship. Even before the phone is officially announced and available for purchase, Vernee has revealed that they are working on another mid-range handset called as the Vernee Thor Lite. This would make it the third handset from the company so far, after the Apollo and the Thor.

In the past few weeks, we have seen that Vernee’s smartphones have multiple selling points to attract customers. So, what makes the Vernee Apollo Lite so special? Well, the first thing is the pricing. The company has confirmed that the Vernee Apollo Lite version will retail at an affordable price tag of $199.99. This is actually pretty affordable considering the specs on board the device.

So, the Apollo Lite still features the world’s first deca-core chipset, namely the Helio X20 as well as pretty good hardware. There will be 4GB of RAM on board along with 32GB of internal storage. For display, you get a 5.5-inch 1080p panel. At the back, the phone will feature a 16MP camera while up front, there will be a 5MP shooter. So, the company has downgraded the specs as compared to the Apollo, but still it turns out to be quite powerful. Other expected features of the Lite version include dual SIM card slot (SIM2 can be used as MicroSD), USB Type-C port and Android 6.0 Marshmallow update out of the box.

Vernee has confirmed that the phone will be officially announced in May and the pricing will be $199.99. You can check out more details about the company from their official website.
