Motorola Yuva A810
Motorola has announced that it is to follow Apple and Samsung in to India with a touchscreen device – an affordable device called the Yuva A810, apparently (pricing at Rs 8,000).
There were be 2.2 inches of the screen of touchiness, some handwriting recognition, and the usual stack of multimedia features. In addition to which, Moto has done some customisation on the device to accept SMS writing in Hinglish (which I can only assume is some teen-mashup of Hindu and English…).
Much is being made of the budget entry of the phone to the market – whereas the iPhone and Omnia came in at a premium (the Omnia cost a full Rs 39,000), the Yuva A810 will be coming in at less than a quarter of that.
Having said this of course, entry-level devices (at less than Rs 3,000) constitute more than 50% of the total handset market – but still, the aspiring consumers will look to those devices that are “just that bit better” – and as such the Yuva A810 could fill a nice gap.

About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
