BENGALURU: Indian smartphone manufacturer Xolo today launched Q700 Club, its first smartphone with IP55 Rated dust and water resistance feature, priced at Rs. 6,999 ($110).
The new smartphone from Xolo, which is a subsidiary brand of Lava, has a 4.5 inch touchscreen display with In Plane Switching technology that allows users to view the display from all angles along with enabling superb color reproduction.
The IP55 Rated dust and water resistance feature gives the device complete protection from dust particles and accidental water spilling.
The Xolo Q700 Club is powered by a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor coupled with 1 GB RAM and Dual Mali 400 GPU. The device runs on KitKat 4.4.4 out-of-the-box and till now there is no official word about a possible Lollipop update for the device.
Xolo has equipped the smartphone with a 5 MP rear camera with scene detection & tuning, face recognition, panorama, Geo-tagging, burst shot, smile shot and HDR. But coming to the VGA front camera of the device, Q700 Club is a real let-down as users expect better quality front camera now days.
Xolo has preloaded Q700 Club with Hungama Music App, allowing users to enjoy free unlimited music and video downloads for 3 months.
Another highlight of the new Xolo Q700 Club is its remarkable dual front speakers with DTS support allowing users to enjoy favorite movies, songs and games with loud, clear and booming sound.
This new dual SIM smartphone from Xolo also supports all general connectivity such as WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth, and USB. Adding to this the device also has an inbuilt storage capacity of 8GB expandable up to 32 GB using MicroSD card.
Xolo Q700 Club is backed-up by a 2000 mAh battery enabling uninterrupted entertainment for extended hours. The device is expected to go on sale soon.
