Intex has expanded its affordable Cloud-range with the launch of the Cloud Zest smartphone. Priced at Rs. 4,999, the latest Intex Cloud Zest has been listed on the company site. So far, there has been no announcement from Intex about the launch of the handset.

The highlight of the Cloud Zest is its large 4000mAh battery that is rated to deliver up to 15 hours of talk time and up to 500 hours of standby time.

The smartphone is powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core Spreadtrum (SC7731) processor coupled with 1GB of RAM.

It comes with 8GB of inbuilt storage, which is further expandable via microSD card (up to 32GB). It sports a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, while there is a secondary 2-megapixel front-facing camera also onboard. On the connectivity front, the Intex Cloud Zest offers 3G, GPRS/ EDGE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Micro-USB, and Bluetooth options.

The Cloud Zest measures 146x74x10.3mm; weighs 152 grams, and is listed in Black, Champagne, and White colours.
