Homegrown electronic makers Lava began the sale of their recently launched Blaze 5G smartphone in India on Tuesday. The phone is priced at Rs 10,999 and is on sale exclusively on Amazon India. This is the cheapest 5G smartphone available in India.
Lava aims to provide next-generation 5G technology to Indians at an affordable price point. It was launched on November 8, but it was unveiled on October 4 by the telecom minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw, at the India Mobile Congress. The sale was earlier expected to commence during Diwali, but it was delayed. The phone is now only available on Amazon. It is still not clear if the phone will be available on Flipkart.
