Itel has updated the price tags for some of its newer base-level models, and it leaves you with an opening to buy an itel A80 or an itel P65c for cheap. One of these handsets has secured a discount of Rs 2,500. Here are the specifics.
Itel A80’s price has changed from Rs 22,500 to 21,500, and even though a 1000 rupee difference isn’t big, this should help lighten the load on your wallet and make room for some accessories. We hear Itel P65c scores an even bigger discount as it cuts down the price from Rs 25,000 to Rs 22,500. Also, remember that both phones have 128 GB storage, which is not something we usually find at these prices.
Itel A80
Itel A80’s 6.7” display is not intrusive because of the punch-hole, and its resolution seems to be HD+ at 720p. Even though it’s among the cheapest daily drives, this phone will give you a 120Hz refresh rate Fluid animations with at least 500 nits peak brightness.
Itel A80 is the cheaper of the two because it has less physical RAM at 3 GB added with around 5 GB virtual memory. Still, this phone will grant you access to an Android 14 OS out of the box, wrapped in an itel OS 14 skin. Fair warning: don’t expect this device to run fast as it uses a Unisoc T603, which is an old entry-level SoC.
Everything’s wired to a 5000mAh battery, which you charge at a standard 10W input. Also, there’s a USB Type C plug here. Most of the hype around this device is an update from 13 MP to 50 MP rear camera and one auxiliary lens. But there are no upgrades for its 8 MP selfie camera.
Itel P65c
This handset is a 6.6” IPS Liquid Crystal model, which boosts the refresh rate to a 120Hz refresh rate, the same as the A80. Just like the older and original P65 model, the P65c gives you a 720p display and even a Dynamic port that shows interactive notifications.
Itel never made 65c’s SoC details official, but it might be a chip borrowed from the original P65. This one gets 4 GB of physical RAM with around 4 GB of additional virtual memory. The storage is 128 GB with an expandable SD card slot. Even for cameras, this is an avid performer.
The front camera is 8 MP, which itel advertised as an AI portrait selfie. That main shooter is slightly better with only 13 MP, but it does have a Super HDR mode. Its 18W charging speed is more than you could ask for in this price range. There’s a 5000mAh battery inside to power everything. Itel P65c fits the bill perfectly with its new Rs 22,500 price tag.
