LeEco and Coolpad in a collaboration have launched a new affordable smartphone in India, the Coolpad Cool 1. The phone was launched in China back in August and features a dual-rear camera and a large 4000 mAh battery. Cool 1 is the first smartphone to come out under the Coolpad branding after the company’s acquisition by LeEco earlier this year. Cool 1 will be compatible with Reliance Jio 4G as well.
The dual-SIM Coolpad Cool 1 comes with a 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor. It is available in two variants – 3GB RAM/32GB storage and 4GB RAM/32GB storage.
Cool 1 is running LeEco’s EUI 5.6 based Android 6.0 Marshmallow. It sports a dual-rear camera setup (13MP + 13MP) with f/2.0 aperture and phase detection auto-focus. The front of the device sports an 8MP selfie shooter. Like we mentioned earlier, the phone is backed by a 4000 mAh battery, and comes with a reversible USB Type-C port. Coolpad claims that with Quick Charge 2.0, the phone can be charged to 50 per cent in just 30 minutes.
