Shortly after teasing it, Oppo made the N1 Mini official. The company shared some of the phone's details, but not all, as it will hold an event on June 10 to do just that.

What Oppo shared regarding the N1 Mini is little, but gives a general idea of the phone's upper mid-range spirit. The Oppo N1 Mini features the same swivel camera as its bigger brother. It's a 13MP Sony 6-element lens camera with a 1/3.2" sensor size. The camera features the Super Zoom mode (introduced with the Oppo Find 7), but in the N1 Mini it works at 24MP, not 50MP.
At the front of the Oppo N1 Mini, there's a 5" display with a yet unannounced resolution. We guess it's 1080p, but we'll wait for Oppo to confirm that. The phone weighs 150 grams, which is somewhat heavy for a 5" smartphone, but more acceptable when you take into consideration the rotating camera mechanism.
The Oppo N1 Mini runs Android KitKat with color OS 1.4 on top. The phone supports China Mobile's TD-LTE and alongside its official announcement event on June 11, Oppo will also make the phone available for purchasing.
The phone is rumored to launch with one of two octa-core chipsets - either the MediaTek MT6592 or the Exynos 5422 Octa SoC. We'll know more on June 10, so stay tuned.

Apple is bringing its 8GB iPhone 5c to India. The 8GB variant was originally released back in March as the lowest cost current-generation iPhone option available.
The 16GB 5c currently retails in the region for 41,900 Rs., and the 8GB version in Europe is presently priced at 50 cheaper than the 16GB, which is the equivalent of 4,100 Rs. This means that the 8GB iPhone 5c could cost less than 35,000 Rs., which would be a huge selling point for Apple in India.


Because of Apple's strong worldwide brand name, it is easy for them to sell their previous generation phones in regions like India and still turn a healthy profit.
CEO Tim Cook even discussed the growth Apple has enjoyed in the Indian market:
"iPhone sales grew by strong double-digits year-over-year, and in India and Vietnam sales more than doubled."
The 8GB iPhone 5c should drop in India in the next few weeks, and expect the low-cost device to start popping up in other emerging markets.
