The new Intex phone flaunts a 5.0-inch qHD (960x540p) OGS (One Glass Solution) curved display and ships with Android v4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS out-of-the-box.

Inside, it houses a 1.3GHz quad-core CPU, 1GB RAM, 4GB of in-built memory (expandable up to 32GB), 8.0-megapixel main camera, 2.0-megapixel snapper on the front, 2000mAh battery, dual-SIM slots, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and other standard connectivity features.

The company said the Aqua Curve is now available at more than 40,000 retail outlets (including Intex Square showrooms and online stores) for ₹12,490 across India. The handset will be competing against the recently released Micromax Canvas Turbo Mini, Lava Iris Pro 30 and Samsung Galaxy Grand 2.
