Celkon, known for its cheap value for money Android phones, including its new A119 Signature HD that we reviewed recently, has been spotted of selling its new low end Android device, the Celkon A62 on Snapdeal. The device comes with a huge 4.7 inch screen, with a resolution of 854×480 pixels. While it may not sound really exciting, we must remind you that it costs Rs. 6,799/- which is probably one of the few devices that have a huge screen at this price.

Lets take a look at the overall specs of the device –

  • 4.7 inch 854×480
  • Dual SIM GSM+GSM
  • 1 GHz Dual Core processor with 512 MB RAM
  • 10.4mm thick and weighs 109g
  • 8 MP rear camera, 2 MP front camera
  • Android 4.0.4 ICS
  • Internal Storage – 512 MB with micro SD up to 32 GB
  • FM Radio and BT 3.0

The specs look decent for the price, but the internal memory is definitely a concern. Cameras seem to be pretty nice on paper but performance is unknown unless tried out. Overall, we think the market is still gravitating towards higher screen sizes in all the price points, and higher resolution too. Only six to eight months ago, it was a rarity to see WVGA screens below the 8,000 price point, but now you see only them. How long until we see 720p screen below 10,000 INR? Not too long I guess.
