Coolpad Group Ltd launched its flagship smartphone Cool Play 6 in the Indian market. Claimed to be customized for Indians, the handset will be Amazon India exclusive starting September 4th. Priced at ₹14,999, Cool Play 6 comes in Gold and Black colour variants.
Dominating Budget & Mid-Budget Segment:
When the mid-budget segment is dominated by the heavyweights like Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, Lenovo K 8 Note and Moto G5 Plus, Coolpad is betting big on 6GB RAM and dual rear camera setup.
If the reports are to be believed, the new Cool Play 6 will bear Made-in-India tag as it will be indigenously manufactured at Videocon’s Aurangabad plant. The company is planning to start exclusive service centres in the next two-quarters.

Cool Play 6 Dual Rear Camera:
The other USP of the Coolpad Cool Play 6 is its dual rear camera setup. The two 13-megapixel cameras with Sony sensors and dual-LED flash remind the depth of field effects of Huawei smartphones. It even allows the user to shoot a 4K resolution video. A remarkable feature at this low price!
On the front, there is an 8-megapixel camera with a f/2.2 aperture for selfies. Of course, you’ll have a quick unlocker in the form of a fingerprint scanner.
Like many flagship smartphones, Coolpad tried to incorporate the best features at this price segment which is a rarity.
