On the back, the new mobile phone features an 8-megapixel camera with dual-LED flash and Blue glass filter, complemented by a 3MP front camera for making video calls while on the go.

Lava Iris Pro 30 also arrives on shelves with noise cancellation capabilities, courtesy of dual microphones, as well as with 3.5mm audio jack and FM Radio.

Moreover, it will offer support for 3G networks in the country, as well as Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity. A built-in GPS receiver was also included inside the device, along with USB OTG capabilities.

The specs list of Lava Iris Pro 30 also shows Dual-SIM (normal + micro) capabilities, along with a 2000mAh battery, all packed inside a body that measures 138 x 66.7 x 7.5mm and weighs 114 grams.
