Indian OEM Spice Mobility has just announced the upcoming availability of another Android mid-range smartphone, the Spice Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506.

According to fonearena, the Spice Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506 will go on sale in the coming days for only Rs 8,499 ($140 / €100) outright. Customers in India will be able to grab the handset via major online retailers across the country.

Unfortunately, little is known about Spice’s Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506, as the Indian company has only unveiled a small picture of the devices.

However, given the fact that this is a pure mid-range smartphone, we expect it to come with mild specs in terms of both hardware and software.

The phone is likely to ship with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system out of the box and will pack some preinstalled apps and services for the Indian market.

The picture published by Spice Mobility also confirms the metallic finish of the Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506, along with a rear-facing camera and a small LED flash under. A secondary front-facing camera is visible as well.

That’s about all the features that the Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506 might pack, but we are still waiting for Spice’s official statement regarding the smartphone’s full specs sheet.

We will keep an eye out for any additional details on the Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506’s release in India, so stay tuned for more updates on the matter.

In the same piece of news, the Indian company has announced a new Spice Milaye Sapnon contest in which the lucky winners will receive the upcoming Spice Stellar Mettle Icon Mi-506 smartphone.

Participants will have to share their dreams with the world and those with the highest number of votes by the end of the contest will be offered the said smartphone. Those who wish to take part in the contest should know that it will run from March 24 and through April 2.

“Spice truly believes in empowering people to realize and fulfill their dreams with smart phones. This digital contest ‘Spice Milaye Sapnon Se’ is our initiative to collaborate with consumers on a common platform where they share their dreams and aspirations with us and the world at large.

The contest is the first in a series of initiatives, both online and offline, that Spice is taking to connect with consumer’s dreams and enable them to realize those dreams with Spice Smart Phones,” said Dilip Modi, chairman, S Mobility Ltd.
