This is the world’s first smartphone to run on Tencent OS 2.0 from InFocus to launch today. And the company came up with the InFocus S1 with very some high-end specifications and decent build quality at a very aggressive price of just 999 Yuan (US$ 151 / Rs. 10,200). It is built out of Aluminum Magnesium alloy and will be available only in Gold Colour. It runs on the recently announced TencentOS 2.0 (a.k.a TOS 2.0) based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

It comes with a 5.5-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) resolution display with a 2.5D glass on top.

It includes 4 GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage that can be expanded upto another 128 GB via MicroSD card slot. The Hi-Fi audio on this device is taken card by the Texas Instrument’s TAS2555 chip.

On the front is an 8 MP sensor with f/1.8 aperture and 84.4-degree wide-angle lens for perfect selfies. It comes with dual SIM dual standby support and offers 4G LTE for faster data speeds. The InFocus S1 is backed by a 2,900 mAh battery that also supports fast charging, but somehow the company is shipping only the non-fast charging adapter.
