Reliance launches LYF F1 smartphone priced at Rs 13,399

Reliance Retail on Friday launched LYF F1 from LYF Smartphone+. This new smartphone from the LYF stable was launched at price of Rs 13,399.

It is equipped with carrier aggregation (CA) support, a technology that gives users vastly improved data transfer rates and a better browsing experience. This feature is known to boost battery life.

The F1 comes equipped with Rich Communication Services – a set of evolved Messaging services and enriched calling features. It allows group chat, file and location sharing, and much more through the good old SIM-based messaging. Calling lets the user set context to a call by adding location, image, urgency and customised message.

It has a 16 mega pixel rear camera and is designed for low-light photography. Other camera features include a unique multi-focus mode, and electronic image stabilisation that allows steady video recording while in motion.

LYF F1 is powered by a superior Snapdragon 617 Octacore processor with 3GB RAM, and a 3200 mAh battery. The phone comes with a 5.5 inch full HD IPS display and a built-in video player helps you view two videos on one screen. Also there is Smart Play - the intelligent display feature that pauses your video the moment you look away from the screen.

LYF F1 comes with Smart Ring technology – a ringer so smart that it helps you trace your phone even when in silent mode.

Sunil Dutt, President – Devices, Reliance Retail, said, “LYF F1 smartphone+ is designed to take full advantage of the future ready Jio network. It is unmatched in speed, quality and product experience. LYF F1 is available in stores across the country now. With LYF F1, we welcome you to get future ready.”

Reliance Digital, India’s largest consumer electronics retailer with over 1900 stores across India, hosted the event. The showcasing of LYF F1 Smartphone+ fits the retail giant’s core value proposition - to bring the latest and leading consumer technology products first to Indian customers.
