After launching the Cool 2 in India, Coolpad has now launched its next smartphone dubbed as the Coolpad Note 6 which will be succeeding the Coolpad Note 5 and also marks the company’s aggressive comeback in the Indian smartphone space, since parting ways with LeEco. For the unknown, Coolpad Note 5 is the company’s latest budget smartphone which will also be an offline exclusive, which means that the Chinese smartphone maker will have an advantage over its online-exclusive competition.
From what we can see, the Coolpad Note 6 comes with a plethora of features that are focused towards offering a better experience and that too at a very affordable price tag. The Coolpad Note 6 comes with an 8-megapixel front camera coupled with a 5-megapixel secondary sensor as well as front flash, which offers the capability of capturing 120-degree wide-angle selfies. While this particular feature makes this the first ever selfie focused smartphone from the company, another highlight of the Note 6 is its humongous 4070 mAh battery which can easily offer enough juice for a full day of heavy usage.
Some of the other highlights of the Coolpad Note 6 includes a dedicated microSD card slot which means that users won’t have to compromise on either an extra connection or expandable storage and the battery promising a standby time of 350 hours.
