After almost a year’s hiatus, Micromax’s sister brand YU has finally launched a new phone, YU ACE, in India. The smartphone brand will retail its latest mobile via Flipkart, starting September 6.
Micromax had witnessed fleeting success couple of years ago, but that soon died down due to the sudden growth of Chinese manufacturer’s in the region. This launch could mean a market re-entry for the smartphone brand in the low budget segment. At the given price, the phone competes with the likes of Camon iAce, 10.or D2, and Infinix Smart 2.
The mobile is a successor to September 2018 launched Yu Yureka 2. Priced at Rs. 5,999, the smartphone will be available in Gold, Blue, and Black hue options.
