14 DAY TRIAL // We reported last week on two new Panasonic smartphones that were available for purchase in India, the P11 and T11. Today, Panasonic has officially introduced the handsets in India, along with a completely new device, the T21.
All three are mid- to low-range Android smartphones, perfectly suited for the Indian market. All three offer dual-SIM support and decent specs for their price range.
As AndroidOS points out, the cheapest of the three is the T11, which is now available for purchase for only Rs 9,790 ($155/€115) outright.
Panasonic T11 ships with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system out of the box and sports a 4-inch WVGA capacitive touchscreen display. It also comes equipped with a 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor, 1GB of RAM and 4GB of internal memory.
Next in line, the new Panasonic T21 has been priced at Rs 13,990 ($225/€165) and is powered by the same Android 4.1 Jelly Bean platform.
The smartphone sports a 4.5-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports HD (720p) resolution, an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera and a decent 1700 mAh Li-Ion battery.
The T21 is equipped with a 1.2 GHz dual-core Broadcom 28145 processor, 4GB of internal memory and microSD card slot for memory expansion.
Last but not least, Panasonic P11 is the most expensive of the three, but runs on the same Android 4.1 Jelly Bean platform.
The P11 is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor and 1GB of RAM. It sports an enhanced 8-megapixel rear camera, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera and a large 5-inch HD (720p) display.
“With the launch of these devices, we are yet again raising the bar for innovation. Smartphone is a reflection of who you are, and since we are all different, it is imperative that we do not adopt a ‘one size fits all approach’. Panasonic’s new offerings will deliver a remarkable mobile experience to our consumers and set a new standard in premium smartphones,” said Manish Sharma, managing director, Panasonic India.
