Speaking to ANI, Zoppo Mobile's Brand Manager, Charles Bird, stated the company not only aims to create brand awareness but also stakes claim to be the first company to launch the phone with the Deca-Core processor.
"With the Deca- Core processor, we have the opportunity to work with Mediatek to be the first to launch it. It is faster and its great brand awareness because we can say that we were the first one to launch. It just goes without saying that it's a great band promotion," he said.
He said this device is among the fastest Smartphones available in the market.
"With Speed 8 what it translates into benchmarks, it scored extremely high in Antutu pegging at 93000 and if you see Xiamoi except for the latest one, all of them score much lower than that," he said.
When asked about the company's plan to manufacture under the "Make in India" initiative, Bird stated the company has plans to start manufacturing in India in the near future.
Zoppo is slated to launch its lower end segment the 'Colour' series next month to target the youth.
