Lava is making another push in the budget smartphone space with the launch of the Bold N1 5G. The company is calling it one of the most affordable true 5G phones in India, with an effective starting price of ₹7,499.

A Budget 5G Phone That Covers the Basics

The Bold N1 5G is unlocked for all major Indian networks including Jio, Airtel, Vi, and BSNL. On the front, it has a 6.75-inch HD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate, available in two finishes: Champagne Gold and Royal Blue.

For cameras, you’re looking at a 13MP dual setup on the back and a 5MP selfie camera with screen flash. What’s unusual at this price is support for 4K video recording at 30fps, something you don’t often see below ₹15,000.

Hardware, Performance, and Battery

Inside, the phone runs on the UNISOC T765 chipset with 4GB RAM and an additional 4GB of virtual RAM. Storage options include 64GB and 128GB, expandable up to 1TB. Keeping it powered is a 5,000 mAh battery that charges over USB-C, with Lava claiming up to 30 hours of talk time or 10 hours of YouTube playback on a single charge.

Software and Updates

The Bold N1 5G ships with Android 15 and a clean, ad-free interface. Lava promises one major OS update and two years of security patches. Buyers also get Lava’s Free Service@Home program, which provides doorstep after-sales support across India.

Pricing and Availability

The 4GB + 64GB model is priced at ₹7,499, while the 4GB + 128GB version comes in at ₹7,999. With SBI card offers, these drop to ₹6,749 and ₹7,249 respectively. The phone will be sold exclusively on Amazon as part of its Great Indian Festival sale.
