Freedom 251: Here’s Everything You Should Know About This Smartphone Priced At Rs 251

Only yesterday, we informed you about Ringing Bells' upcoming Freedom 251 smartphone, which will be available in the country starting tomorrow. Priced at Rs 251, it will be the cheapest smartphone ever launched in the country, which for us is equivalent to nano of the smartphone market. We are dumbfounded by the fact that a company is selling a smartphone at a price which is less than what a good screen-guard costs, and that too without cutting down on the specs. Here is everything we know about the device.

Inside Freedom 251
It will come equipped with 4-inch display, a 1.3GHz quad-core processor, 1GB RAM, 8GB internal storage, which is expandable by up to 32GB. Powering it would be a 1450mAh battery, which should easily last a day. This device will come running on Android Lolipop 5.1 straight out-of-the-box.

Freedom 251 will have a 3.2MP rear camera and 0.3MP selfie snapper. The imaging capabilities sure are a bit disappointing, but then what more could you ask for at this price point.

You will get 3G, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, and GPS in the Freedom 251.

Freedom 251 smartphone comes with a one year warranty and the company claims that it has already set up 650+ service centres across India for ensuring good after sales service. Interesting!

This smartphone will come pre-loaded with apps like Women Safety, Swachh Bharat, Farmer, Fishermen, Medical, Google Play, WhatsApp, Facebook, YouTube, etc.
