Yu Yutopia is a $375 smartphone with flagship-level specs

Yu Yutopia is a $375 smartphone with flagship-level specs

The hardware specifications of the Yutopia are quite impressive. The display also comes with a layer of OGS and full lamination which will ultimately aid in better sun light readability. That means it offers an octa-core 2GHz CPU, and contains the Adreno 430 GPU. On the front, you get an 8 megapixel shooter with the same 5P lens. The rear camera has features like 4K video shooting and slow motion HD videos at 120 fps. Also considering it sports a QuadHD display we will need to see how the battery life holds up on the Yutopia.

State Bank Credit Cardholders will get Rs 1,000 cash-back on purchase of YUTOPIA mobile phone at Amazon. There's 4GB of DDR4 RAM, 32GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD), and a 3000 mAh battery featuring Quick Charge 2.0. We anticipate a huge demand for this device but the order quantity is limited to one unit per customer.

The other highlight of this phone is its Fingerprint scanner, which has round form factor and is placed below the rear camera.

Expectedly, Yu Yutopia is Yu's most expensive and most feature rich phone till date (and for that matter most expensive phone coming from Micromax stable as well).

The smartphone will run the latest Cyanogen OS 12.1 built on Android 5.1.1, with Marshmallow dropping anytime soon.

Yu has partnered with Airtel to offer data benefits to users.

"Around YU" has a suite of services including travel, food and entertainment rolled into one discovery window for the users.

The 5.2 inch phone is sold in India by Cloudtail, which is linked to Infosys founder Narayana Murthy. The options that appear when a person taps on, for example, cabs, include the nearest Ola and Taxi For Sure cabs and offline taxi services around the vicinity.

"Cyanogen is excited to continue our partnership with YU with the launch of YUTOPIA", said Kirt McMaster, CEO of Cyanogen Inc.

The other interesting announcement made by YU is its Assured upgrade programme. Along with the phone the company launched a suite of services.

The only two things still going for the LG device was the brand name of the Korean company and Google's promise of the phone having the most up-to-date software all the time.
