Xolo Black unveiled in India as a Flipkart exclusive; phone goes on sale July 13th

In India, Xolo has unveiled the Xolo Black. This is the first handset to be announced in the series, and will be a Flipkart exclusive in the country. The phone will be priced at the equivalent of $205 USD when it goes on sale July 13th. Vodafone subscribers who purchase the phone will receive 1GB of data free for two months, along with two free months of Vodafone Music.

The Xolo Black is equipped with a 5.5-inch screen carrying a 1080 x 1920 resolution. That works out to a 401ppi pixel density. Gorilla Glass 3 protects the display from scratches and is also found on the phone's glass back. The Snapdragon 615 SoC powers the handset, featuring an octa-core CPU and the Adreno 405 GPU. 2GB of RAM is inside along with 16GB of expandable storage. On back you will find a dual camera set up with 13MP and 2MP cameras on board. The latter is used to change the focal point of an image, Lytro-style. On front, a 5MP snapper is ready to snap your selfies. Keeping the phone running is the job given to the 3200mAh battery inside, and Android 5.0 is pre-installed with HIVE UI 1.5 running on top.

The phone supports 4G LTE connectivity and measures a slim 7.3mm thick. The Black is treated with an oleophobic coating to prevent fingerprints from marring the device's finish. And the power button lights up in different colors to alert the user of certain notifications.
