What Do We Expect?

Earlier this month, the Micromax In 1a, which is one of the upcoming smartphones was spotted on the Geekbench benchmark listing. The benchmark platform listed the device with an octa-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz and this is likely believed to be the MediaTek Helio G35 chipset. Also, the listing revealed the presence of Android 10 OS and 4GB of RAM.

This makes us believe that the Micromax In 1a could be an entry-level offering that will compete against the likes of other budget smartphones that arrive with similar specifications. While the other details remain unknown, the device is likely to feature a 5000mAh battery, a dual-camera setup at the rear with a 13MP primary sensor and a 2MP secondary lens, 6.5-inch HD+ display and an 8MP selfie camera sensor.

Micromax is making a comeback to fight against rivals from China such as Redmi, Realme, and others. And, the launch of smartphones with the MediaTek Helio chipsets used by its rivals, it is clear that Micromax is intending to put a good show this time. We will get to know more details regarding these smartphones next week.
