Coolpad is slowly starting to make its name in the Nepali smartphone market. The Chinese company’s Cool 1 is one of the best smartphones under Rs. 30,000. Jaima Intercontinental, the sole authorized distributor of Coolpad in Nepal, previously had four product line-ups – Cool1, Mega 3, Mega 2.5D and Note 3S.

Jaima Intercontinental has now added a new member to this list as the company looks to broaden its horizon in the low-end price range. The NX1, a smartphone of the NX-series is a budget-friendly smartphone which will set you back just Rs. 10,226. This price tag offers 4G connectivity which, of course, is the USP of the device.

Specs of Coolpad NX1:

The Coolpad NX1 sports a 5.0-inch display which has a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. It is powered by Quad-core MediaTek MT6735P processor with a clock speed of 1.0 GHz. This SoC and processor are paired with Mali-T720MP2 GPU and 1 GB of RAM. Sadly, even though the NX1 is a smartphone from 2017, it still runs on Android v5.0 Lollipop. I still don’t get why manufacturers are sticking with an Operating System from the stone age!

The Coolpad NX1 houses an 8-megapixel rear camera sensor with f/2.4 aperture and dual-LED flash. It is capable of taking HD videos as well. The front-facing camera measures 2-megapixel and also comes with f/2.4 aperture. Users do have an option to expand 8 GB of internal memory to 64 GB via a microSD card. Connectivity wise, the Coolpad NX1, as I mentioned before supports 4G. It has Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, GPS and FM Radio. Coolpad has included Accelerometer and Proximity sensors on the device.

All of this is backed by a 2,000 mAh Li-Po battery which the company claims can last for up to 8 hours. The Coolpad NX1 is available in two colors: Black and White.
