Swipe Telecom has launched two new budget Android smartphones in India, the Swipe Konnect 4 and the Swipe Konnect 4E. The phones have been priced at Rs. 4,490 and Rs. 3,750 respectively, and Swipe is bundling a leather case and screen cover.
The Swipe Konnect 4 is a 3G-enabled smartphone, while the Swipe Konnect 4E only supports 2G connectivity. Both phones will be available in Black, Blue, Red, and White colour variants.
Starting with the Swipe Konnect 4E, we see the budget dual-SIM smartphone is based on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, and comes with a 4-inch WVGA (480×800 pixel) OGS display. It runs on a 1GHz dual-core processor coupled with 256MB of RAM, and comes with 512MB of inbuilt storage that can be expanded via microSD card (up to 32GB).
The Swipe Konnect 4E features a 2-megapixel rear facing camera, and a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera. It runs on a 1500mAh battery, however, no battery life figures have been provided by the manufacturer. It has dimensions of 126x63x9.4mm, and has Wi-Fi, GPRS/ EDGE, Micro-USB, FM radio, and 3.5mm audio jack connectivity options.
On the other hand, the slightly more expensive Swipe Konnect 4 dual-SIM Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean-based smartphone features the same 4-inch WVGA (480×800 pixel) OGS display, and runs on what seems like the same 1GHz dual-core processor, here coupled with 512MB of RAM.
The Swipe Konnect 4 features 4GB of built-in storage that is expandable via microSD card (up to 32GB). It comes with a 3.2-megapixel rear facing camera, and a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera. It runs on a 1500mAh battery, however, once again, no battery life figures have been provided by the manufacturer. It has identical dimensions of 126x63x9.4mm, and has Wi-Fi, GPRS/ EDGE, Micro-USB, FM radio, and 3.5mm audio jack connectivity options, as well as 3G and GPS in addition.
Earlier this month, Swipe Telecom had launched the Swipe Konnect 5.0 smartphone in India at Rs. 8,999.
