We are supporting his vision of a smartphone in every Indian’s hand by 2019 by shattering the price barrier. However, a sub US$ 33 Android smartphone does not mean any compromise on functionality whatsoever.This launch is bound to trigger the largest conversion of feature-phone users to smartphone users in the country.”
