    Huawei Partners with Aircel

    Huawei has launched their IDEOS in collaboration with one of the India’s leading mobile operator company Aircel. They have bundled a 2Gb internet pack with the smartphone for their prepaid and postpaid customers.

    Price and Verdict

    As I have mentioned above the phone is a really cheap for just Rs. 8,499. Although it has not yet outbid Micromax’s Andro which comes for just Rs. 6,999. The estimated battery life of the phone is also good which is a real concern for Android devices. Definitely if you want an Android in your pockets at a cheaper price I vouch for it .
