Lava will soon roll out the Lava Iris 356 and the Lava Iris 402 budget smartphones running on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS for an attractive price of Rs. 4,499 and Rs. 5,499 respectively. Both these handsets will be powered by dual core processor and will support 3G.

Recently Intex had announced the Intex Cloud X3 that runs on the Android 4.2 OS with 256MB RAM. We had a doubt if it could run 4.2 on 256MB RAM, but now the Iris 356 and the 402 both powered by same hardware and 256MB RAM also claim the same.
