Indian company Micromax plans to launch a new flagship smartphone in the coming weeks. For the time being, the handset maker is yet to make any announcements, but word on the upcoming device has already surfaced online.

Droidextra.org reports that the next high-end smartphone to be released by Micromax is called A250 Canvas Turbo and will be powered by Android Jelly Bean operating system out of the box.

Unfortunately, we can't say for sure which version of Android will be pre-loaded on the A250 Canvas Turbo, but if Micromax wants to avoid a fiasco like in Canvas 4's case, it should ship its next flagship device with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean onboard.

Another hardware spec confirmed is the fact that Micromax A250 Canvas Turbo will be equipped with a 1.5 GHz quad-core Media-Tek MT6589T processor and a PowerVR SGX 544MP graphics processing unit.

There is no info on the amount of RAM yet, but if Micromax wants to keep the price low for the Indian customers, the A250 Canvas Turbo will not be packed with more than 1GB of RAM.

We also know that the smartphone sports a full HD (1080p) capacitive touchscreen display, but have yet to receive details on its size. It might be in the 5-inch range, but we will know more after Micromax unveils the device.

These are all the specs leaked for the Micromax A250 Canvas Turbo, but the smartphone will also sport an enhanced rear-facing camera, a front-facing camera and some internal memory.

For the time being, these are only speculations, but the device might pack a 13-megapixel main camera with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, as well as a 5-megapixel front-facing camera.

Last but not least, the A250 Canvas Turbo will ship with either 16GB or 32GB of internal memory, which can be further expanded up to 64GB via microSD memory card. Stay tuned for more updates on the matter.
