CyanogenMOD powered Micromax "Yu" will be unveiled on 18th December

Last month, Indian phone manufacturer Micromax and Cyanogen Inc. announced a partnership to launch a new smartphone named the "YU". Micromax has now begun sending out invites for the YU’s launch event, which will take place on December 18th.

We believe that the Micromax YU will be a high-end device of some sorts. Micromax co-founder Rahul Sharma says that “the phone is going to be a monster”, as it will have “really cool specs”. Last month however, it was said that the smartphone would cost less than the OnePlus One and that software would be able to make “an inexpensive device seem like a much more premium-level device”. We can probably expect a low-cost, mid to high-end specced smartphone along the lines of OnePlus and Xiaomi.

So, What do you think about this Partnership? Will it work out for India? We don't know as of yet! Let's welcome Cyanogen to India!
