Intex Technologies is a 14-year-old IT Hardware, Mobile Phones and Electronics Company, headquartered at New Delhi recently launches IN5030 Triple SIM mobile phone (GSM+GSM+CDMA) with multimedia features and affordable price tag.
Intex IN5030 is a bar style, Java based phone and can hold 3 SIM cards, 2 GSM and 1 CDMA at a time. User can make and receive call on only one GSM connection and while making calls from GSM SIM card, the CDMA connection remains active. This allow users to shift between two GSM services easily.
IN5030 features with 2 inch TFT screen with 65K colors, 1.3 MP camera which can also use as a webcam, Mobile tracker, Bluetooth, phonebook with 1000 entries, memory card slot – support TF/Micro SD card up to 4 GB, torch light, auto call record, supports English and Hindi languages and it works as a modem. In entertainment point of view, Intex IN5030 has FM Radio with recording and scheduling feature, Audio and video player with recording and audio equalizer.
Phone has 1050mAh battery and has up to 4 hrs talk time and up to 120 hrs standby and it will be available at a retail price tag of Rs.4700 around India with one year limited warranty.
Can’t really understand why manufacturers insist on including a camera in their lower end phones. They should rather focus on improving screen resolution/readability, better keypads, battery life or even bluetooth (with A2DP).
I’m sure consumers would apprecate these enhanced features more than a woefully inadequate camera w/o autofocus, flash, etc.
I urge manufacturers to know user preferences via a survey.
