Micromax confirms the In 1b runs on Android 10 Go Edition

Micromax In 1b was supposed to go on sale from November 26

Micromax In 1b starts at Rs 6,999 in India

Micromax In 1b was launched earlier this month alongside the Micromax In Note 1 as the two phones that marked the comeback of the company in India. While the In Note 1 did go on sale, the In 1b was supposed to go on sale from November 26 but the company faced some logistics issue on the day of the launch which is why it was postponed to a later date.

Now we are getting information that the base variant of the Micromax In 1b that has 2GB of RAM runs on Android 10 (Go Edition). This was revealed by the Flipkart listing of the phone that displays two different operating systems for the two variants that are offered by the company. The 2GB RAM variant of the In 1b gets the Android 10 Go Edition while the 4GB RAM variant runs on full-fledged Android 10.

Android 10 (Go Edition) was released in September 2019 with an aim of making the Android ecosystem faster and more secure for entry-level phones and is designed with new app experiences in mind. Google claims that apps boot 10 percent faster on Android 10 (Go edition), as compared to Android 9 (Go edition), and the overall security is improved as well.

There is currently no official word as to when the Micromax In 1b will go on sale in India. Having said that, the countdown timer on the official website has been reset and now indicates that the sale could take place sometime in the second week of December in India.

Micromax In 1B features a 6.52-inch HD+ (1600 x 720 pixels) resolution display with a waterdrop notch cutout on the front. The In 1B measures 8.9 millimetres in thickness and weighs 188 grams.
