New Delhi: With the promise of “a new smartphone every month”, Bengaluru-based consumer technology company CREO on Wednesday launched its first smartphone "Mark 1" that runs on an indigenously-made operating system (OS).
The 4G-enabled device, priced at Rs.19,999, runs on the company's proprietary stock Android-based operating system called FUEL OS.
The smartphone device with in-house developed hardware and software will soon be available on the company's website creosense.com and with e-tailer Flipkart.
