Several smartphones are expected to make their debut in India this month, ahead of the upcoming summer holiday season. From budget handsets to high-end smartphones, these handsets are aimed at a range of buyers. The Realme Narzo 80x is set to launch in the coming days as a budget smartphone with a 6,000mAh battery, while the Vivo V50e will be a camera focussed smartphone with a curved display. Gamers on a budget can look forward to the upcoming iQOO Z10x, which is also set to launch in India soon.
All the smartphones that are scheduled to launch in the coming days are equipped with large batteries or sport 120Hz displays. These handsets will be available to purchase via Amazon, and the e-commerce platform has already begun teasing specifications and other features via dedicated microsites.
It’s also worth noting that Acer is also expected to launch new smartphone models in India in the coming days or weeks. However, there’s no word from the company (or Amazon) on when we can expect these phones to arrive, or any other details related to their specifications or features.
