Karbonn Launches Titanium S9 With Android 4.2 For Rs 19,990

Jelly Bean-based dual-SIM handset sports a 5.5" HD IPS screen, quad-core CPU, dual cameras, and 2600 mAh battery. 

Karbonn has launched its new flagship smartphone, or rather a phablet — the Titanium S9. This Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) phone is powered by a quad-core CPU, possibly the popular MTK6589, which is now found in a host of low-cost quad-core phones. The company provides 1 GB of RAM that should allow you to comfortably run most apps and games. The internal storage is also a decent 16 GB, with option to add up to 32 GB more via microSD card. This is a dual-SIM phone supports 3G, although it is not mentioned if both the SIMs can handle 3G. A 5 mp front camera can take care of video calling, while the main on the rear is a 13 mp camera with autofocus and LED flash. Here are the handset's specifications.

• Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), Google Play Store support.
• 
  
• Dual-SIM.
• 5.5" IPS capacitive touchscreen with pixel dimensions of 720x1280.
• 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU.

• 13 megapixel rear camera with autofocus and LED flash, 5 megapixel front camera.
• 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB.

The 2600 mAh battery should provide decent battery backup and such a larger capacity battery is necessary in such a power-hungry device, with components such as a large screen and quad-core CPU. The Karbonn Titanium S9 is priced at Rs 19,990 and is being offered with a flip cover to protect the screen.
