Itel has announced its latest budget smartphone, the A100C, and it looks strikingly similar to the upcoming OnePlus 15, right down to the edges and camera housing. 

While the resemblance may grab attention, the A100C is built for a completely different audience. It targets budget buyers who want a long battery life, decent performance, and practical features at an accessible price.

Itel A100C Specifications

The phone sports a 6.6-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate and a 720×1612 resolution. It’s an 8-bit screen, features 400 nits of typical brightness, and a 90% screen-to-body ratio.

Powering the A100C is a Unisoc T7100 octa-core processor, paired with up to 12GB of memory (4GB physical + 8GB extended RAM) and 128GB of internal storage. It runs Android 15 (Go edition), wrapped in itel OS 15.

Fueling the phone is a 5000mAh unit that is claimed to deliver up to 32 days of standby, 27.7 hours of call time, or 8.5 hours of gaming, depending on use. Charging is handled via USB Type-C.

Itel also emphasizes durability. The A100C has military-grade toughness (certified under MIL-STD-810H) and has been tested against high temperature, humidity, and repeated drops from up to 1.22 meters.

Among its more interesting additions is UltraLink, a feature that allows users to make Bluetooth-based calls and messages without Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity. There’s also infrared remote control support, side fingerprint and face unlock, and DTS-tuned sound for better audio quality.

Its camera setup includes an 8MP rear sensor and a 5MP front camera, standard in this segment. The phone comes in Pure Black, Titanium Gold, Blaze Blue, and Silk Green, with a slim 8.49mm profile. There’s no word yet on pricing.
