Celkon A87 low cost android gingerbread powered handset for under Rs. 4800

by Gogi Rana on February 14, 2013 · 10 comments

Celkon A87 is a low budget phone with 1GHz single core processor, dual SIM support, 5MP camera and running on Android 2.3 OS. The A87 is listed on Flipkart with a price tag of Rs. 4,799.

Micromax has already started selling the MMX A116 quad core version and there is a mad rush for the same. There are many dual core handsets being launched and the single core’s are now getting more affordable.

The Celkon A87 runs on a 1GHz single core processor with 512MB RAM and 512MB internal storage. The handset is 12mm thick and weighs 115 grams. The A87 runs on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS. The display (capacitive touch screen) is 4 inches with 480×320 pixels resolution.  The resolution is the same as found on Xolo x500, in fact the A87’s screen is 0.5 inches bigger.

The handset supports dual SIM and comes with a single 5MP rear camera; I think it will be fixed focus. There is no flash support. The battery is of a standard 1450mAh capacity. There is no 3G support and no GPS. You can use the 2G network only.

Hi reddy, A59 a low end device 1GHz single core processor, good for low budget. I don’t think it supports 3G.
