Micromax returns to India with the launch of the In 1b and Note 1

Once the leader of the Indian smartphone market, Micromax is now making a comeback to the budget segment with the launch of its new In series of smartphones.

After succumbing to the competition, Micromax was looking to get back in the race and compete with the Chinese offerings. Two smartphones were launched today — the In Note 1 and the In 1b. These phones will be assembled in India across three factories. Performance is the key focus this time, with emphasis on gaming, a clean stock Android experience, no bloatware or system ads and guaranteed two years of updates. They also have a dedicated Google Assistant button.

The higher-end of the two, the Micromax In Note 1 is powered by the gaming-centric MediaTek Helio G85 chipset with 4GB of RAM, up to 128GB of storage and Mali G52 graphics. MediaTek’s HyperEngine gaming suite also makes the cut.

There’s a big 6.67-inch Full HD+ IPS display with a 20:9 aspect ratio and 450 nits brightness. The selfie camera is housed in a hole-punch notch on the top that spans 4.6mm across.

The In Note 1 runs off a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging as well as reverse charging via USB Type-C. 5GHz Wi-Fi is also supported. Colour options include Green with a glossy finish and an ‘X’ pattern and White with a matte iridescent look.

The 4GB + 64GB variant is priced at Rs 10,999 and the 4GB + 128GB variant is priced at Rs 12,499. The first sale is scheduled for November 24 on Flipkart.
