Micromax Canvas Turbo Announced

Are all smartphones created equal? Not really, but sometimes, there are always cheaper alternatives out there which would be close in terms of hardware and specifications as other more popular branded names, and I guess you can always lump the likes of the Micromax Canvas Turbo there. The Micromax Canvas Turbo happens to be a 5” Full HD IPS CGS (Continuous Grain Silicon) display that was manufactured by Sharp, and will run on a quad-core 1.5GHz Cortex A7 processor.

Accompanying that underneath the hood would be a PowerVR SGX544 graphics processor as well as 2GB RAM, with 16GB of internal memory limited by the lack of a memory card slot – something that ought to be the norm in smartphones these days. Interestingly enough, the Micromax Canvas Turbo will arrive with dual-SIM support, so you can always separate your work and social life on a single handset. Other hardware specifications include a 13-megapixel shooter with LED flash at the back, Full HD video recording capability, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, GPS support, Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean in tow, and a retail price of €235 thereabouts. A 2,000mAh battery ought to keep it going for the better part of the day, even for a power user. [Product Page]
