This is a first for Intex and they are pretty excited about it. Commenting on the launch, Sanjay Kumar Kalirona, Mobile Business Head, Intex Technologies said – “Virtual reality is the next big thing in the area of consumer technology. We are delighted to partner with Google in bringing Intex Eyelet Cardboard bundled with Aqua View thereby marking our entry into the VR space.”
The Virtual Reality Cardboard which accompanies the Aqua View has 34 mm lenses and supports smartphones of screen up to 6-inches.
Display & Design
The Intex Aqua View sports an exquisite 5-inch HD 2.5D curved touchscreen display. The smartphone also features a fingerprint sensor and also comes with 4G LTE connectivity. The entire devices tags along a dimension of 124 x 64 x 10.33mm and weighs 146g.
Camera, Process & Operating System
The Intex Aqua View boots Android 5.1 Lollipop out-of-the-box and is powered by a 1GHz Quad-core Mediatek MT6735 processor with Mali-T720 GPU. The device also features 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory which can be expanded with an addition of up to 32 GB.
In the camera aspect, the Intex Aqua View sports an 8 MP camera with LED flash at the back, while it is a 5 MP affair up front. The device also features a Finger print scanner and yes, a 3.5 mm audio jack which seem to bee disappearing from smartphones of late.
The enire device will get its power supply from a 2200mAh battery which is sopmewhat disappointing, considering the fact that the Intex Aqua View comes with a VR headset. The number of hours of video viewing the device will allow before it shuts down because of low battery doesn’t offer any bright prospect with this one.
