Micromax brings its 1st Android phone Andro A60 to India next month


New Delhi: Micromax has showcased its first Android run phone, the Andro A60 to the Indian markets. A full touch screen smartphone, the Andro A60 comes with the Android 2.1 Eclair update. The phone will start selling next month and will be available at a price of about 8,000. Micromax is the third largest mobile phone maker in India and the latest Android phone from the company will further strengthen its hold in the Indian market. The Andro A60 has a 2.8 inch resistive screen with an auto focused 3.2 MP camera. The phone is powered by a 600MHz microprocessor. Weighing 105 grams, the dimensions of the phone are 106.8mm x 59.2mm x 14.0mm. The phone comes with an internal memory of 150MB and can be expanded up to 32GB using a micro SD card. Connectivity features of the phone include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS. The Andro A60 also packs in an Accelerometer and gravity sensor for playing the Android-platform based games. The device includes FM radio and is powered by a 1280 mAh Li-ion battery. The battery gives just four hours of talktime, a worrisome feature for an Android phone. With Micromax grabbing the top spots in the Indian mobile phone industry, it is time that the big wigs like Nokia and Samsung pull up their socks before the Indian company is all out to rule the roost in the Indian market.
