Spice has taken the wraps off a new Android smartphone, the Stellar Mi-361, which comes with KitKat preloaded and carries a price of Rs 5499. The device is a basic one, offering the bare minimum hardware needed to provide a smooth experience and it also offers 3G connectivity with ‘high utility functions,’ states the Indian OEM.
At the said amount, the Spice Stellar Mi-362 certainly looks to be a costly option. The device basically has nothing near to what the Redmi 1S has to offers at Rs 5999 and it doesn’t even come close to delivering the features Google’s Android One devices have in store.
For half the amount, you’ll get a handset with the same feature, like the Rs 1999 Campus Nova A352E and the Rs 3449 Campus A15K from Celkon. Even iBall has similar options with lower retail tags. The new Spice phone offers a 3.5-inch display with 320 x 480 pixel resolution. And it’s powered by a 1GHz dual core processor.
