This phone marks the entry of Intel into the Smartphone processor market ,which is currently occupied by ARM processors.The main thing to notice is usage of low power Atom device by Intel which will compete with high performance ,low powered ARM processors.Battery Standby time will be the prime concern as the device is using power hungry famed Intel Processors.Lava officially announced this phone in India,Which will be out for retail on April 23rd,It will also be available for purchase through online retailers.
