The affordable smartphone industry in India has welcomed many worthy devices in the recent months. Xiaomi's Redmi 4A and Redmi 4 smartphones and Motorola's Moto C series stand out in the crowd, but there's another player trying to make its mark in this category.
Intex launched a new budget smartphone on Tuesday, which is rich in features and carries an affordable price tag. Intex Aqua S3 – the latest offering in the company's Aqua series – supports a high capacity charger (2Amp) to quickly charge the device, mimicking the fast charging feature found in premium smartphones these days.
Intex Aqua S3 runs Android 7.0 Nougat out-of-the-box and includes power optimisation features such as the Doze power saving mode to keep the handset going for long.

The Aqua S3 is also powered with latest Android Nougat and front LED flash for the ubiquitous users to enjoy seamless experience and become a customer's delight."
Other highlights of the Aqua S3 include miFon security, which the company claims combines nine security features. It offers lost phone tracker even when there is no phone data, missing phone siren, antivirus, data backup and clicks selfie of the thief and emails it to the owner.
