Intex IN8809 is a Dual SIM Phone & Pico Projector

When new entrants to the mobile phone market cannot slug it out with the big boys, they come up with innovative ways to be different, aside from just going the price wars. So this new phone from Intex does not only have a dual-SIM slot but also a pico projector.

While some would look at it as a dual-SIM phone with a built-in projector, I’d look at it as an affordable pico projector that has a phone capabilities (and dual-SIM too). That means it’s not really meant to be primarily used as a phone but as a projector. That way, you won’t miss some of the key features you wanted to be included by default — like WiFi or 3G.

The Intex IN8809 is a candy-bar phone with a small projector on top that makes it a little bulky on the hands (Intex is an Indian company).

Intex IN8809
6cm QVGA display
FM radio
Bluetooth 20
VGA camera
up to 16GB via microSD
2 x 1000mAh Li-ion battery
Dual-SIM
Pico-projector

The projector can display images, videos and MS Office files from the phone to a wall of up to 36 inches in diameter. Not big enough but should be usable when you’re doing presentations for a small group of people (which I think is its target market).

The quality of projection is actually good to decent, depending on the distance from the wall and the ambient light. Will post more samples and videos once I post the full review next week.

The projector is actually a power guzzler so Intex made sure they include an extra battery on top of the 1000mAh Li-Ion on the phone (have not fully tested how long it will last when the projector is running).

We still don’t have a suggested retail price for this one since it’s not yet completely out of the market (you may find some of them in Gilmore or Virra Mall). I am told that it will definitely be under Php10k and could be between Php7k to Php8k (will update once I get the final price).
