Karbonn too have launched their version of quad core called the Karbonn S1 Titanium. This handset runs on Jelly Bean OS, comes powered by 1.2GHz quad core processor and supports dual SIM. The handset is priced at Rs. 10,990 as of now, seems like Karbonn have reduced the cost from 12,999.
The Karbonn S1 Titanium model is now listed on the Karbonn Mobiles website and it seems they are still updating as specifications are still not filled in. But the good news is we have two quad cores waiting to be launched.
Micromax were the first to announce the Micromax A116 and now we have another competitor the Karbonn with its S1 Titanium model. Not much of the details are revealed on the Karbonn site as of now.
But here is what is mentioned. The S1 Titanium handset looks different from the A116 with 4 dedicated buttons on the front side. The CPU is 1GHz quad core for smoother operations. The handset runs on Jelly Bean OS and the screen is with qHD resolution. A 1600 mAh battery powers the handset. The screen size is not disclosed yet but looking at the battery mAh it could be 4.3 or 4.5 inches.
Other features included are 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, 3.5mm jack and micro USB port. There is a 5MP rear camera with Auto focus and led flash plus a front VGA camera for video calling. It’s a dual SIM handset and memory details are not known but probably with 1GB RAM.
Visit the Karbonn Mobiles site (click here) for more on the S1 Titanium. I will update the specs as soon as they are updated on the Karbonn website. The handset is with a lower spec like 5MP camera, lower battery mAh and probably with a smaller screen size. The handset is priced at Rs. 12,999 and is cheaper than than the Micromax A116.

As we all know Soc on the phone is the heart of the phone
And many ppl will agree on the fact tht Qualcomm chipset are way n way better
than mediatek chipset n ARM cortex5 consumes lesser power .. karbon is like HTC giving u reliable product always n mmx is like samsung whooing ppl with inflated goodies which are useless … If u compare the designs karbon makes handsets tht reflects HTC in it n mmx copies Samsung qualcom is internationally recognised soc makers so mind it thier product will be rugged n durable rather than mediatek cheap soc …. Karbon will be clear winner in terms of reliablity n price .. but..the shrood mmx will hogg the limelight thru thier marketing policy….
parth
yup i agree wid u…
parth

MSM8625Q is the processor name for titanium s1…
but a116’s quad core mtk6589 clearly beats msm8625q……
check the comparison of the processors at:
http://gizbeat.com/836/mtk-mt6588-mtk6588-vs-qualcomms-msm8225q-and-msm8625q-quick-post-part-1/
so paying almost 2k more u get a power packed phone dan a phonw with outdated msm8625q launched in 2008
Sima
