Big on power, big on performance, big on fun
Operating on the latest Android 7.0 Nougat, S41 is designed to meet the diverse requirements of its users and to give them an unparalleled smartphone usage experience. Powered by 1.25 GHz Mediatek quadcore processor and paired with a 3 GB RAM spec makes it one of the most powerful smartphones in its category. The 3GB RAM makes it the perfect fit for resource-intensive applications like games. With its 16 GB internal memory expandable to an additional 32GB, users can store videos and photos, download/update applications, and install the latest games without worrying about their storage space running out. It also handles the other concern of ‘running out of juice’ with its 2700 mAh Li-Polymer battery, which ensures the fun isn’t interrupted by frequent trips to the charging port.

With an 8MP auto focus rear camera with flash as well as an 8MP full-frame front camera with flash, the S41 is designed to capture important moments and turn them into lasting memories. The rear camera comes equipped with a professional camera mode for photo-buffs with an eye for the perfect picture, while 120-degree panorama enables them to capture more within a single shot. The smartphone also comes equipped with face beauty and night mode features, making it possible to take clear, crisp, bright, and high-definition photos with minimal hassle.
Even photo editing is just a matter of a few clicks with the S41, which comes with seven celebrity makeup effects, 10 custom beauty makeup effects, and 17 beautiful makeovers. Popular face masks can additionally be used to add an element of fun and quirkiness to any photo.

Con‘fingure’ing it for maximum security and personalisation
With the S41 coming equipped with premium features like fingerprint sensor, users no longer need to bother with complicated lock patterns and codes, as a single finger touch allows them to access and keep their private data more secure, more conveniently. Additionally, be it taking a screenshot with three fingers or using customisable insta-gestures to access specific applications within no time, the S41 is designed for maximum functionality with minimum effort. With its back fingerprint scanner, it allows users to click a selfie within 0.1 seconds, answer and record calls, and configure up to five different applications to five fingers for quick app launch, the latest offering from itel literally makes everything accessible at the users’ fingertips.

Looks good, feels good
Created for maximum elegance and comfort, the S41 has arc-shaped edges and an ergonomically-designed back cover for firmer grip. Its good looks are complemented by its 5” HD IPS curved full laminated glass display, which enables brighter, more vivid colour reproduction with high contrast ratio to ensure superior screen visibility even in sunlight.

Social and stylish: The perfect combination
And what will a smartphone be today without high-speed internet connectivity and social media apps? The S41 comes with 4G VoLTE/ViLTE capability and provides users with the option of using two accounts on a single social media app like WhatsApp, doubling the social fun and making it possible to stay connected, faster and better. Priced at INR 6,990, the sleek, stylish, elegantly designed smartphone from itel Mobile comes in shades of slate grey and obsidian black.
