Spice Stellar 497 and Stellar 361 Now Available for Rs 5,999 and Rs 3,699

Just a coupe of weeks back, Spice surprised most of the tech community in India by announcing its first smartwatch called the Smart Pulse, and now the company has launched two new smartphones in India.

The devices come dubbed as Stellar 497 and Stellar 361 and are very affordable priced at Rs. 5,999 and Rs. 3,699 respectively and both these devices are currently selling via third-party online retailer Saholic.

These are the smartphnes that are aimed to cater to the need of the low-end smartphone buyers in India. The Spice Stellar 497 is at least better in terms of processor and OS, as it features the trending KitKat OS and Quad Core processor. However, the RAM used in the handset is still very less which makes it incompetent in the Indian market.

Competition

The company's latest two offerings in the form of these two entry level KitKat phones are not up to the expectation of the market. If you are in need of one budget smartphone with KitKat OS, there are ample devices that can be checked out. To name few, Micromax Canvas Unite, Canvas Engage, Xolo Q600s, Moto E are playing the top games in the low-end KitKat smarpthone market.
