Indian smartphone company Lava Mobiles, unveiled the world’s first customisable smartphone that permits customers to settle on the components — camera, memory, storage capacity and colour — on their own from the company’s website.
The way this works is that you simply head to the Lava Mobiles online store and choose the MyZ choice to customize your phone as you’d want it. And these aren’t just a few cursory design or colour changes or wrapping a special skin on the phone you’re buying.
Lava’s MyZ customizations include the rear camera, front camera, RAM, storage and therefore the colour of the phone. you’ll choose these while ordering a replacement phone, but what if you would like to upgrade some components of the phone later? Lava says that users can upgrade the RAM and storage in their phones at any time. This upgrade are often done by the Lava service centers and will just be a rather cost-effective alternative to purchasing a replacement phone that’s either running low on storage as your usage increases, or simply doesn’t have enough RAM to stay up with multitasking.
Worlds First Customisable Smart Phone – What does it mean ?
Lava myZ is the company’s customisable smartphone series. Customers can choose from up to 66 combinations of camera, RAM, ROM and colour that fit in their requirements and use case.
At this point under the MyZ umbrella, Lava makes it fairly simple to settle on certain components in your new phone, while the opposite specs are predefined. as an example , the MyZ phone is powered by a Mediatek Helio G35 processor, has a 6.51-inch IPS display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3, a 5,000mAh battery and different iterations of Android counting on which storage option you choose—the 2GB RAM storage phones will run Android 10 Go while the 3GB, 4GB and 6GB RAM phones will run the more dynamic Android 10.
Customers can also come to upgrade their mobile phones at any time of their device life. They can choose any of the components of their choice — front camera, rear camera, RAM, ROM, and colour on pre-purchase and upgrade from lower configuration to higher configuration. The entire program has been done by talents in India.
