MTS Duet CDMA and GSM dual SIM phone outed in India for Rs 4.799
MTS has launched the Duet in the Indian market which seems to have a never-ending appetite for dual SIM smartphones that hit the right spot when it comes to price. The handset supports CDMA as well as GSM networks, something the company explains to be its ‘strategy to offer greater choice’ to users.
Since we’re talking about a wallet-friendly option with the MTS Duet, the specifications are obviously not going to be high end. The phone works on the Android platform, or Gingerbread v2.3 to be more precise. It gets its kicks from a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chip and stays juiced up through a 1200mAh battery. The company hasn’t let out the talk time users can expect between charges.
The front panel of the MTS Duet plays host to a 3.5-inch (that’s 8.8cm) display of the capacitive touch sort. It throws out visuals in an HVGA resolution of 320 x 480p. A 3MP camera sits on the rear side and there’s no front lens. No word on the RAM or internal memory, but potential customers can expect a microSD card slot for expanding the hoarding space up to 32GB.
Not many features of the MTS Duet have been revealed at present. But if our guess is as good as anyone else’s there’s not much to ogle at anyway. The company’s Chief Marketing and Sales Officer for the country, Leonid Musatov, says that part from this CDMA- and GSM-happy dual SIM handset, there are plans to launch many more dual mode devices.
The MTS Duet is available in India for Rs 4.799. The company is offering it with a tempting deal for unlimited data and local calls over 2 months. Interested buyers can choose to sign up for this bundle that costs Rs 599.
