CREO MARK1 launched for Rs. 19,999

New Indian smartphone company from Bangalore called "CREO", launched its first smartphone -"Mark1".  This was launched at an event in New Delhi by CREO CEO Sai Srinivas and will be available at a price of Rs 19,999. Mark1 will be exclusively available on Flipkart and Creo official website. 

While every smartphone brand promoting their new smartphones with the hardware specs, CREO is promoting itself saying that – they will give better Android experience with features that aren’t available on any other Android device to the users by giving monthly software updates. So Mark1’s tagline is  “new phone, every month”.

Mark1 runs on Fuel OS which is based on Android. Next software update on Fuel OS is announced by CEO at the launch event and that will be on May13th. That update includes Selfie Screen flash and auto background data manager.

Mark1 launched with very cool inbuilt apps like Sense, Retriever, Echo and Messaging.

Sense:

With Sense, you can get to anything on your phone in 2 steps or less; whether it's a phonebook contact, an app or that mp3 file you downloaded the other day. Type what you want and Sense will find you a way to get there quicker. Go from hungry to pizza in 2 steps or less

Retriever:

The Retriever is foolproof in detecting theft. It automatically triggers alerts to your Email ID anytime a new SIM is inserted in your Mark 1. The best part: it works without an active internet connection and even after a factory reset. If it's unstealable, it's yours forever.

Echo:

Echo answers your calls for you when you can't. Don't send that "In a meeting, call you later." text to people you care about; let Echo answer your calls with a personalized greeting in your own voice. Your new personal assistant, Echo works without Internet.
