InFocus have announced the new Bingo 50, which is an upgrade to the M350 of the past.

There are a couple noteworthy things about this new phone. One, it comes with Android M out of the box (the first sub-$150 to do so?), and has 3GB of RAM. Of course, there are many phones that do that, but what’s interesting is that the Bingo 50 is priced at just 7499 INR or $111.

While the CPU this phone is powered by isn’t the most powerful (the quad-core MediaTek MT6735), it still does the job. In fact, my daily phone for the past two weeks has been the Coolpad Note 3 Lite, which has the same SoC and I’ve had no issues whatsoever so far.

Full specifications of the InFocus Bingo 50

  • 5-inch 1280 x 720p display
  • 1.3GHz quad-core MediaTek MT6735 processor
  • 3GB RAM
  • 16GB on-board ROM
  • Dual 8 mega-pixel cameras
  • 2500mAh battery
  • Sandstone-like rear cover

The Bingo 50 is for the Indian market (so far), and there’s no word on whether the phone will see light of day in other countries. It’ll come with a choice of eitherĀ Leather Black or Sandstone Gray rear covers, all for 7499 INR.

    Sweet. And the naysayers said mtk6735/mtk6753 would never get 6.0.

      False.
      mtk6735/mtk6753 will surely get 6.0 ,
      even OUKITEL are testing android M 6.0 on their mtk6735/mtk6753 based phones.

    InFocus, though small, are making right moves in Indian market. My daughter uses one of their phones, she swears by the camera quality and phone build.

      Not surprising on the build quality they are owned by Foxconn, which makes phones for a lot of the major brands.
