itel Zeno 100 Pro And Zeno 100 Lite Set To Launch With Military Grade Design

itel is expanding its budget smartphone lineup in India with the upcoming launch of Zeno 100 Pro and Zeno 100 Lite. Ahead of the official launch, details about the pricing and key features of both smartphones have appeared through an Amazon microsite.

The new itel smartphones are expected to arrive in the affordable segment with both models priced below Rs 10,000. According to the listing, itel Zeno 100 Lite will have a starting price of Rs 8,199, while the Zeno 100 Pro will be available at a starting price of Rs 8,799. The price difference between the two models is expected to be around Rs 600.

The company is also offering multiple colour choices for customers. The itel Zeno 100 Pro will be available in Black, Silver and Orange colour options. Meanwhile, the Zeno 100 Lite will come in Green, Beige and Black variants, giving buyers more choices based on their style preferences.

The Zeno 100 Lite is expected to feature a 5000mAh battery aimed at providing all day usage for regular smartphone activities. It will come with a 6.61 inch HD Plus display supporting a 90Hz refresh rate, which should offer smoother scrolling and improved viewing experience. The device will also include DTS audio support for better sound quality while watching videos or listening to music.

Durability is one of the major highlights of the upcoming smartphones. The Zeno 100 Lite will feature military grade durability, allowing it to handle everyday bumps and minor accidental drops more effectively.

The Zeno 100 Pro is positioned as the more rugged model in the series. The company claims that the device will offer heat resistance and drop resistance features. It will also come with MIL STD 810H certification, which is generally associated with improved protection against challenging conditions.

Another interesting feature teased for the Zeno 100 Pro is the “200m Distance, Stay Connected” capability mentioned on the Amazon microsite. This suggests that the phone may offer a special connectivity feature that could allow communication with nearby devices even without relying on regular mobile networks.

Reports also suggest that the Zeno 100 Pro could include an IR blaster. This feature would allow users to control compatible electronic devices such as televisions, air conditioners and set top boxes directly from their smartphone, a feature that is becoming less common in modern phones.

With affordable pricing, large batteries, durable designs and additional smart features, itel’s new Zeno series appears aimed at users looking for practical smartphones without spending heavily.
