itel A300C Brings Military-Grade Durability, Large 6,000mAh Battery for $115

itel has officially introduced the A300C, a cost-effective Android device tailored for ruggedness and long-lasting battery life, now priced at $115. The exact launch date and availability in Pakistan are yet to be confirmed, though itel is already active in the Pakistani market with various budget phones. The A300C boasts a 6.56-inch LCD screen with a 720 x 1,612 pixel resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate for smoother visuals, and a MIL-STD-810H certification indicating its resilience to various environmental stresses, although it lacks an official IP rating for dust or water resistance.

The device incorporates a fingerprint sensor on the power button, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a DTS-enhanced speaker. Under the hood, the A300C is driven by the Unisoc T7100 chipset, paired with 4GB of RAM and a 64GB storage capacity, expandable up to 2TB via a microSD card. Operating on Android 16 Go Edition, Google’s lean Android version for budget devices, the phone connects via 4G LTE, lacking 5G support due to the T7100 modem's limitations.

Its camera setup is fundamental, featuring an 8MP rear and 5MP front camera suited for standard photography and video calls. The A300C houses a substantial 6,000mAh battery with 18W wired charging, accompanied by a charger and protective case. In India, the device is priced at $115, although its final price in Pakistan may vary due to local tax implications and other economic factors.
