by Ritij Khurana • February 28, 2013

We brought to you the story of LG Optimus G being available on an online retailers and today LG has officially unveiled the LG Optimus G in the country at a launch event which was held in the financial capital of the nation, Mumbai. But the launch price is nowhere near the pre-release price and the official price tag the Optimus G will come with Rs.34,500.

The LG Optimus G has come quite late to India compared to the rest of the world but the specs are by no means those of the yesteryear. The LG Optimus G will come with a 4.7-inch HD IPS Plus screen which will have a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels. It will run on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and seeing that is the company’s flagship in the country, they should surely upgrade it to Android 4.2.2 as soon as possible.

by Ritij Khurana • February 28, 2013

Blackberry Z10 was just launched in the country and along with it, the people started wondering as to when will its sibling, the Q10 join the ranks. The Q10 runs on Blackberry 10 like its sibling but comes with a 3.1 inch touchscreen and a qwerty keyboard as well. Qwerty keyboards have been the strength of Blackberry and the Q10 will hit the Indian brick and mortar stores this April. The Indian launch will come at the time of the global launch so that speaks volumes about the company’s intentions for India.

At the launch event of the Blackberry Z10 in Mumbai, Sunil Dutt, BlackBerry India’s managing director stated that the Q10 will be launched in India by April and will join the Z10. Along with these two high end smartphones, Blackberry will also launch a host of Blackberry 7 OS running devices to cater to the lower ends of the smartphone market. On the other hand, the Blackberry 10 OS powered smartphones will be locking horns with Android, iOS and Windows Phone flagships.

HTC One India Launch By March 2013

by Ritij Khurana • February 25, 2013

HTC created a lot of waves when they launched the HTC One and the ripples of those waves are going to create a lot of profits for the company in near future. The HTC One has already started going up for pre-order in Europe and how could the world’s number 2 market be left behind amidst all this. HTC will bring it to India later in March 2013 before the current fiscal ends to up the ante in the high end smartphone game.

There is no knowledge about the price at which the device would come but company has confirmed the launch time. We wonder as to what pricing strategy will they follow for it. We expect it to replace the HTC One X in the Indian market and sit below the HTC Butterfly as the Butterfly costs a whopping Rs.45,000 and people prefer buying the iPhone 5 for that amount of money. So they need to get the pricing bang on if this great device has to become successful in the Indian smartphone market.

LG Optimus G Now Available In India- Price and Details

by Ritij Khurana • February 25, 2013

Either LG does not see the Indian market as one of their important markets or the team which takes care of the strategies at LG India is doing a pretty poor job of devising launch strategies for India in the smartphone game. LG has some real good products with them as top of the line smartphones but India seems to get them when their next version comes in. LG has quietly introduced the LG Optimus G in India at a price of Rs. 30,990 when the LG Optimus G Pro has already been announced.

The only thing LG seems to have done in the correct manner this time is that they have priced it right. The SIII just got itself a price cut and is retailing for around Rs.29,000 and the HTC One X can also be bought for a similar price. The only thing that might make people shy away from this real good smartphone is the fact that LG has had a poor track record of updating their smartphones with the latest software. If someone is spending such a large chunk of money for their smartphone, they expect to be treated well but LG does not really do that.

Nokia Lumia Smartphones Prices Will Be Reduced?

by Ritij Khurana • February 24, 2013

Nokia has quite a lot of hopes from the Windows Phone platform and Microsoft also realises the importance of their partnership with Nokia since the Windows Phone platform has seen a huge boost from the day Lumia range of smartphones have hit the stores. In a bid to further boost up the sales of the Lumia range of devices, which are Nokia’s only ray of hope, Nokia intends on making the Lumia in the country slightly more affordable because the current top end devices come at quite a steep price tag.
