One of the world's largest companies, Pepsi, is about to enter unknown territory. Obviously, this is a completely new area for Pepsi, but one that the company is decided to cover with a brand new product.

According to a new report, an unannounced Pepsi P1 smartphone has been spotted in China, along with its specs. The device features Pepsi's logo on the back cover, but we doubt it's been made by its engineers.

Pepsi most likely ordered the P1 from a Chinese manufacturer, so don't expect anything that could differentiate the device from other smartphones in the same price range.

Speaking of which, Pepsi P1 has been priced at $205 in China, but it could cost slightly more if the device is launched in other countries.

Is this the real thing or just a knock off?

Unfortunately, since we're talking about a Chinese smartphone, it's hard to tell whether it's the real thing or just another knock off.

Pepsi has yet to officially confirm the launch of the P1 and such an important moment couldn't have been missed by the company. Anyway, for the sake of this report, let's see what Pepsi P1 has to offer in terms of specs.

First of all, the smartphone is powered by the Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system right out of the box. It also comes with a 5.5-inch IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen display that supports full HD (1080p) resolution.

Pepsi P1 is equipped with a 1.7GHz octa-core MediaTek processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. There's no mention of microSD card slot for memory expansion.

On the back, the smartphone packs a 13-megapixel photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and video recording, while in the front there's a secondary 5-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls.

Last but not least, Pepsi P1 is powered by a 3,000 mAh battery and features a fingerprint scanner on the back side, right under the rear camera.
