Dual SIM Mobile Phone from Intex

Intex, a company known better for computer peripherals like keyboards, mice, PC cabinets, webcams, etc, has recently entered the hot mobile phone market. The company recently launched a dual SIM card phone, the IN 5050. Phones that can take two SIM cards, hence allow you to be on two numbers simultaneously with one phone have slowly gained notice thanks to a slew of models crudely referred to as 'China Phones' in the grey market. The new model from Intex, however, combines CDMA as well as GSM. Thus, you can benefit from lower tariffs of CMDA and at the same time, have a GSM connection as well. The screen has a modest 176x220 pixel resolution and measures 2.2 inches diagonal.

It works with GSM 900/1800 and CDMA 800 networks. The rated talk time is upto 160 minutes and standby time is rated at upto 130 hours. Other features include a 1.3MP camera, Bluetooth connectivity, FM, and playback of MP3 and MP4. The phone is priced around Rs. 7,500
