Panasonic’s P85 has just been unveiled in its P series of smartphones in India. The Panasonic P85 would be available at a discounted price, as part of the Flipkart Big 10 Sale as well as the Panasonic Eluga Ray with which it was launched.
The Panasonic P85 flaunts a 5-inch HD display with a display resolution of 1280*720 pixels. The smartphone carries a metal unibody make-up weighing 146.7g while it is 145 * 72.2 * 9.35 mm in dimensions.
Storage & Processor
The smartphone is powered by a quad-core processor clocked at 1GHz. Along with this is 2GB of RAM with 16GB of internal memory whiCh can be expanded up to 64GB using a microSD card.
Camera
On the rear is an 8MP shooter with LED flash and at the fore lies a 2MP selfie camera.
Battery
The battery department is one that highlights this device. With a mammoth 4000mAh non-removable battery, the P85 is prepared to be long-lasting. If only it supported quick-charge!!
Software & Connectivity
The Panasonic P85 is sadly not one of those devices that run the Android Nougat OS as it still runs on the Android 6.0 Marshmallow Operating System. It also supports 4G networks and VoLTE functions.
