Chinese company COMIO have made their debut into the Indian smartphone market today with the launch of COMIO C1 and COMIO P1 smartphones which are priced at ₹5999 and ₹9999 respectively. However, the company has launched one more smartphone in the country, dubbed COMIO S1.
The COMIO S1 features a metal uni-body design and sports a 5.2-inch IPS display having 1280 x 720 pixel resolution. Like the C1 and P1, the S1 is also powered by an unknown MediaTek processor which is coupled with 2 GB RAM.
At the front, above the display, is an 8 MP camera, and below the display is the home button which houses the fingerprint scanner. If you look at the phone’s back, you might think that the phone comes with dual camera setup, however, that’s not the case as the phone comes only come with a single 13 MP sensor accompanied by LED flash.
Like the other two COMIO phones launched today, the COMIO S1 also boots up to Android 7.0 Nougat, which is very appreciated. In terms of storage, the S1 has 32 GB of storage on-board, however, the external storage can be expanded via microSD card.
Apps like Freezer and Clone, that are found on C1 and P1, have also made their way to the S1. Besides, COMIO has also included the anti-theft feature on the S1.
