Coolpad Cool Play 6 has been announced for the Indian market. The company hosted an event in Dubai, where it announced the new smartphone. Cool Play 6 is priced at Rs 14,999 in India and it will be an Amazon exclusive smartphone. The phone will go on open sale from September 4.
Earlier this year, in May, Coolpad Cool Play 6 was launched in China. It’s been available in the market for CNY 1,499, which roughly translates to Rs 14,000. Evidently, Cool Play 6 will be priced aggressively to beat the competition, which is dominated by the likes of Xiaomi, Oppo and Vivo, to name a few.
Perhaps the biggest feature of the Coolpad Cool Play 6 will be a dual (13MP + 13MP) rear camera setup with dual LED flash. It is capable of shooting pictures in ‘bokeh’ mode as well. Other features include slow video, long exposure, mono photo, and more. The front camera is 8MP with beauty mode and a couple of photo filters to choose from while taking photos.
Coolpad Cool Play 6 supports a USB Type – C slot for charging. Dual stereo speakers are at the bottom and power button along with volume rocker keys are placed on the right. A 3.5 mm headset jack is at the top. Coolpad Cool Play 6 appears to be an interesting smartphone, at least, on the basis of the specifications.
Given the pricing and specifications, this is another mid-range phone entering the market, though with a dual-rear camera on board.
