First "Intel Inside" SmartPhone Launched In India

  When Intel announced its foray into the smartphones arena earlier this year at the Mobile World Congress, no one could have excepted the processor giant to actually come up with an 'up for sale' device as early as April which is like two months from the actual announcement date. But then again its Intel, whatever the processor giant does, it does it in grand style, like it launched its first smartphone today called the XOLO X900 in India today. The device will be available at a street price of $422. Intel's first smartphone has been designed to provide up to 5 hours of 3G browsing and 45 hours of audio, which also supports HDMI, NFC and HD videos playback. "The XOLO X900 is powered by 1.6 GHz Intel Atom with Hyper Threading super-fast processor, 16 GB internal memory and comes equipped with a 4.03 inch high-resolution LCD touchscreen for crisp text and vibrant images. The smartphone delivers a fast application, web browsing and multitasking experience, and also features two cameras for advanced imaging and video capabilities, including burst mode that allows individuals to capture 10 pictures in under a second with 8-megapixel quality," says the phone official website. The X900 will run on Android Gingerbread, with a planned over-the-air software upgrade to Android's Ice Cream Sandwich platform shortly thereafter.
