The Chinese handset maker, Coolpad recently collaborated with LeEco to launch a slew of smartphones in India. However, the brand is also launching its own devices as well and has recently added Coolpad Cool Play 6 to the line-up. From the looks of it, the handset look pretty promising on paper. The handset has been placed in the mid-range and goes up against stalwarts like Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 and Moto G5 Plus. Here is a brief overview of the handset for those who are looking at picking up this handset.
Powerful Battery: In the budget segment, consumers are pretty rational and want handsets that give the best value for money to them. One of the criterion for users to select a smartphone is for it to have an impressive battery backup to boot. Coolpad Cool Play 6 comes with a powerful 4,060mAh battery, which can easily see through a day of rigorous usage. It also happens to be one of the most powerful smartphone in terms of battery at this price.
Massive RAM: It is a no secret that the amount of RAM in a device is directly proportional to the performance offered by the handset. While there is a debate going on about whether or not we need this much RAM in smartphones, it does not change the fact that these devices are buttery smooth. Coolpad Cool Play 6 is one of the first handsets to offer massive 6GB of RAM at this price point. It definitely puts the device ahead in the race in terms of performance.
USB Type-C: While it has become a mainstay for smartphones to have USB Type-C port, it does not take away the utility of the feature. It still happens to be one of the best features to have in a smartphone, especially budget segment. Coolpad Cool Play 6 has been equipped with the same and comes with features like quick charging, faster data storage by default.
Dated Android: The worse mistake that a brand can make is to launch a handset with top notch specs but boot it with a dated Android. Which is what Coolpad has managed to do with this device. The Coolpad Cool Play 6 comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system, which is now two generations old with Android O right around the corner. This will certainly be a deal breaker for many power users.
