Lava Iris X1 With Android 4.4.2 KitKat and Sub-Rs. 8,000 Price Teased

Lava has announced the new Iris X series of smartphones for India, which seems to feature the latest version as a selling point, as the first model - the Iris X1 - runs Android 4.4.2 Jelly Bean. The company has detailed few specifications of the Iris X1, though did say the sub-Rs. 8,000 smartphone is set to be released in the next few days.

So far, not too many details are known about the yet-to-be launched Lava Iris X1, which is one of the few domestic branded smartphones to feature a KitKat. Lava has also announced the Iris X1 features a 4.5-inch IPS display and an 8-megapixel rear camera.

Unfortunately, no other information is known about the Lava Iris X1, but we will let you know as soon we get our hands on some more.

Besides the Lava Iris X1, some other Indian-branded smartphones that run on Android KitKat OS are the Karbonn Titanium Hexa, Karbonn Titanium Octane and Karbonn Titanium Octane Plus. Xolo has also rolled-out the KitKat OS update for its Q1000 Opus users.

"Riding on the success of its Iris Pro series, Lava is really upbeat about this offering and plans to launch the phone in the next few days with a pan India 360 degree marketing campaign," stated Lava in its statement.

Last month, Lava expanded its Iris smartphone family and introduced the successor to the Iris 504Q - called the Lava Iris 504Q+ - at Rs. 13,990.

Some of the key features of the Lava 504Q+ are Android 4.2 Jelly Bean; 5-inch HD IPS OGS (One Glass Solution) display, 1.3GHz processor with 1GB of RAM; 10-megapixel autofocus rear camera; 2-megapixel front-facing camera; 8GB of inbuilt storage (32GB via microSD), and a 2000mAh battery.
