Xolo is however sticking to the same 1.2 GHz Broadcom SoC with Videocore GPU as was present in original Opus Q1000. The chipset is aided by 1 GB RAM and 8 GB native storage, which can be further extended by another 32 GB using MicroSD support. Imaging hardware has been bumped and now includes an 8 MP BSI 2 rear shooter capable of full HD video recording and a 2 MP front shooter. Support for 3G operator video calling is also present. The 2500 mAh battery, packed in 7.99 mm slim body, has official charge time of 3 hours and will last for 9 hours of 3G talktime and 7 hours of WiFi web browsing, which sounds quite decent in this price range. The new Xolo Opus HD will directly compete with Zenfone 5 under 10K price range, and with mildly disappointing Broadcom BCM23550 on board, this won’t be an easy task. Software is Android 4.4.2 KitKat, which will suffice for rich Android experience.
