Spice has been trying to grab a piece of the budget smartphone market with the launch of a few interesting devices. Recently, we saw the Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro launch with some interesting security features. Now, Spice has launched the Spice Stellar Virtuoso Pro. The smartphone brings with it cloud backup capabilities offering users up to 2GB free backup space.
The cloud service gives consumers access to data on multiple devices. Spice Cloud features the ability to retrieve call logs, making it stand out in the cloud crowd available globally. Users can access files on the go; make a backup; share it with others with Spice Cloud storage services.
Spice Cloud provides Spice consumers with Cloud Backup of 2GB free data storage where users can store photos/documents/media files and contacts across the devices along with security and anti-theft features. Users can access them all using the web interface at www.spicecloud.in.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. T M Ramakrishnan, CEO – Devices, S Mobility Ltd, said, “The potential for Cloud services uptake in India and other emerging markets is phenomenal. Spice consumers will enjoy enormous benefits from Cloud services, including the flexibility to access files and data anywhere. They can even use the remote wipe option in case of theft or loss of their smartphones, ensuring data security. The Cloud services reflect Spice’s focus on constant innovation and technology advancement to deliver superlative user experience.”
Stellar Virtuoso Pro is powered by a dual-core processor clocked at 1GHz and runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The device is enabled with SRS audio. The rear of the smartphone has a 5MP Auto Focus camera and the front has a 1.3 MP. It has a 4.5-inch display with a 480×800 resolution. It has dual-SIM capabilities and a 1700mAh battery powers the package. The smartphone is price at Rs. 7,999.
Cloud storage isn’t anything new to smartphones. We have seen the likes of HTC, Samsung and more offer free cloud storage of 25GB and more with services such as Dropbox, SkyDrive, Box and more. Spice claims to be the first one where you can retrieve call logs from the cloud and this is something we would like to check out when we review the smartphone.
