The latest entrant in India’s smartphone market is a Hyderabad based company called Smartron. The company is basically an IoT startup that is now diversifying into smartphones and Tablets. From the looks of it they have got off to a great start. They even have Sachin Tendulkar on-board as a Brand Ambassador.
The company had previously launched the Smartron t.book Tablet and they have now come up with Smartron t.phone. Let’s take a quick look at the specifications on this phone.
Specifications – Smartron t.phone
The Smartron t.phone comes with a 5.5 inch AMOLED display that has a pixel density of 401 ppi. The phone’s display is protected from accidental damages thanks to the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 technology. The t.phone comes with an Octa Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor alongside and Adreno 430 GPU. The phone also has a 4 GB that is sure to boost up performance considering the already powerful SoC that it has.

The internal storage on the t.phone is 64 GB which is expandable up to 128 GB using a microSD card slot. That is certainly good storage to offer for your first flagship phone. Kudos to Smartron for getting this right. The t.phone comes with a 13 megapixel primary camera with dual LED flash and a 4 megapixel secondary camera. Some other impressive camera features include 6 element lens, PDAF, HDR for photos, Zero Shutter Lag (ZSL), and automatic black level calibration (ABCL). It’s not just the primary camera that has all the goods, the secondary camera allows for ultra-low light picture capture technology that will certainly find favors with selfie-enthusiasts.
The dual SIM phone is 4G enabled and weighs a mere 149 grams. That is quite light for a phone of such a form factor because usually a 5.5 inch phone would, at best, weigh somewhere between 160-170 grams. The battery capacity on the t.phone is also decent. It’s a 3000 mAh battery and while that’s not spectacular by any means, especially compared to its competitors, it still makes for an extremely efficient battery. The fact that the phone support Quick Charge 2.0 to allow the battery to charge really quick is another plus for the t.phone.
A quick look at the pricing of the t.phone
Since Smartron is a new entrant in the market one is expecting them to play smart and remain competitive with the pricing. The specifications on the t.phone are certainly close to high-end specs for the most part and that should allow Smartron to position the product in a upper-mid-range segment. As of now the phone is available on Gadgets 360 for a best buy of Rs. 22,999. This can change over time as the company ties up with a few other e-commerce portals and you can always find the best price for this product on iSpyPrice.
One key dimension to the pricing of the Smartron t.phone is that it is the first generation phone from a new brand and it usually takes new smartphone makers a quarter or so to determine what price is best suited to their product. So even though we believe the Smartron t.phone is a good buy at its current price there is little doubt that the next iteration of the phone will bring a product that is even better in specs and is priced more competitively.
