The Xolo B700 which seems to be an upgraded version of the Xolo A700 is available for Rs. 8,999. The specs are almost the same as compared with A700 with some minor and some major difference. The key attraction is the massive battery of 3450 mAh capacity.

If battery life is your major concern then the Xolo B700 is what you should be looking for. You not only can experience the power of a dual core android based smartphone but also expect a longer, a much longer battery life.

This is a dual SIM handset running ICS OS with 512MB RAM and 4GB internal storage. There is 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, GPS, micro USB and 3.5mm jack. The camera is the same as on A700, i.e. 5MP AF on the rear with LED flash and a 0.3MP on the front. The handset can record videos in 720p resolution.

The battery as mentioned is an amazing 3450 mAh with standby time of over 300 hours and talktime is up to 20 to 23 hours depending on the network. The handset is priced right at under Rs. 9,000.
