Starmobile reveals Diamond X1 specs

Starmobile is at it again. This time they’ve given the crowd something more to look forward to by providing more information about their upcoming flagship handset dubbed as the Diamond X1.

If you’re just tuning in, Starmobile gave a sneak-peek at the Diamond X1’s feature set which consists of a 6-inch IPS display and a Mediatek Octa-core processor with 2GB of RAM.

After doing some research, we’ve predicted that SM’s new smartphone could be a rebranded Intex Aqua i17. And as it turns out, Louie was spot on with his hunch.

Starmobile Diamond X1 specs:
6-inch (1280 x 720 pixels) HD IPS display, 245ppi
Scratch-resistant coating
1.7GHz Octa-core MediaTek MT6592 CPU
Mali 450MP4 GPU
2GB RAM
Expandable 8GB internal storage (up to 64GB)
18MP BSI auto focus camera with LED Flash
8MP BSI front-facing camera

One of the things that sparked a controversy was the underwhelming battery pack found in the Aqua i17. Starmobile didn’t specify the Diamond X1’s power source, but if the Aqua i17’s is to be believed, then Diamond X1’s 2300mAh power source may just very well be its Achilles’ heel.

Another thing that Starmobile didn’t disclose was the price. But we don’t have to wait too long to find that out because the Diamond X1 is slated to make its official debut this month.
