Yu Televentures, one of the popular smartphone brand owned by the Micromax Company has launched the Yu Yureka Note phablet in India last week which is priced at Rs. 13,499. Soon after the leaks around YU Televentures’ newest phone were out, the company has gone ahead and launched the Yureka Note. In fact, the Yu Yureka Note phablet will be the first Yu product which will begin selling in brick and mortar stores from launch day itself.

The newly launched handset is available to purchase from offline mobile stores in the region that seems something different to the company’s existing plans to keep the Yu brand online only. The company touts that the phablet will deliver to users the “ultimate multimedia & gaming experience.”

Specifications

The newly launched Yu Yureka Note sports a 6-inch full-HD with a pixel resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels along with a pixel density of 370 ppi. The handset packs an octa-core MediaTek MTK6753T processor which is clubbed with a 3 GB of RAM. The smartphone is an Android 5.1.1 Lollipop-based handset with pretty good specifications.

On the Camera front, the Yureka Note comes equipped with a 13-megapixel sensor at the back. On the other side, the device comes along with a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. For audiophiles, the company is also claiming the inclusion of dual speakers with NXP smart PA technology as well. In terms of storage, the Yu Yureka Note phablet is equipped with 16GB of inbuilt storage, which can be further expanded via the microSD card.

On the connectivity front, the Yu Yureka Note  supports the following connectivity options such as 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and Micro-USB connectivity. The handset is fueled by a 4000mAh battery. Like several other handsets in the market at this reasonable price range, the Yureka Note also features a fingerprint sensor, and the company assures that the handset is capable enough to unlock the phablet in less than half a second. The battery also comes with Quick Charging support.

Speaking about the design, the Yu Yureka Note seems to be a larger version of the previous handset Yu Yunique with the similar Saturn Ring rear camera design, volume and power buttons on the right-side, and speakers at the bottom of the back panel. With a 6-inch display and dual speaker combination, the phablet mostly focuses on those users who wish to consume media, play games, and listen to their favorite music.

Numerous leaks have spread across the media regarding the specifications of the Yu Yureka Note and nothing much differs from the leaked information except the price of the handset. At the Micromax launch event, we could not help but notice this tweet by a Twitter user who posted photos of a new smartphone tagged as the YU6000.
