In last couple of weeks, the price band around Eluga Turbo has rapidly changed to a fierce battlefield where big-guns like Lenovo K4 Note, Le 1S, Honor 5X and Redmi Note 3 Shall compete for market share. It won’t be easy for Eluga Turbo to overshadow these offerings, particularly in online domain (Panasonic still has better consolidated offline distribution network).
Coming back to Eluga Turbo, Panasonic ensures that its glassy front and back body doesn’t lose its sheen easily by layering Gorilla Glass 3 on front and Ashai Dragontrail glass on the rear side. Also adding to the premium appeal is its 6.95 mm slim profile.
