Design & Display
The Swipe Neo Power comes with a 4-inch display which has a FWVGA (850 * 480) pixel resolution and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass, a rare feature in budget smartphones.
Its design is one expected in a budget smartphone – metal back panel, plastic body and large capacitive navigation keys.

Camera
A 5MP camera handles the main photography needs with a LED flash on the rear of the smartphone, while a 2MP camera present at the front takes care of selfie photography.
Battery & Connectivity
The Swipe Neo Power packs a 2500mAh battery which should pull you through half a day on average use. It has dual SIM slots and supports Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 and GPS.
Software
The Swipe Neo Power runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box.
