Lava Blaze NXT launched in India at under ₹10,000; here’s everything you need to know | Digit

The Lava Blaze NXT was teased by the company a few days ago and now, it has officially been launched in the Indian market. The phone shares design cues with the Lava Blaze including the glass back and flat edges. The Blaze NXT comes with a different SoC and more RAM compared to the original Blaze that launched back in July. However, the rest of the specifications remain pretty much the same as the Lava Blaze. The phone will likely compete with other devices under ₹10K in the market including ones from brands such as Motorola, Infinix, and Tecno. Let’s take a look at the price and specifications of the upcoming Lava Blaze NXT.

Lava Blaze NXT: Price and Availability

The Lava Blaze NXT is made available in a single 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage configuration. It is priced competitively at ₹9,299 in the Indian market and will be available for purchase starting December 2, 2022. The device will be sold on Amazon India exclusively. Additionally, Lava has also promised doorstep service for its Blaze NXT customers in India. The Lava Blaze NXT is available in three colour variants – Red, Blue, and Green.

Lava Blaze NXT: Specifications and Features

The Lava Blaze NXT has almost identical specifications to the Lava Blaze apart from the SoC and RAM. The Lava Blaze NXT features a 6.5-inch IPS LCD display with HD+ resolution and a teardrop notch. There’s no fast refresh rate support though. The phone has a glass back design with flat edges similar to the original Lava Blaze; a design language that’s rare at this price.

Powering the device is the MediaTek Helio G37 SoC which comes with an octa-core CPU and is manufactured on the 7 nm process. This same chipset was used in devices such as the Infinix Hot 12 and the Moto G22 – it is a pretty capable entry-level processor. The phone comes with 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage, and users will also get 3 GB virtual RAM. There’s no news on whether it comes with expandable memory though, but we’re presuming the device should have that feature.

The phone is pre-loaded with Android 12 and comes with a large 5,000 mAh battery with USB Type-C charging. As for the cameras, the phone features a triple rear camera setup headlined by a 13 MP primary sensor. For selfies, the phone uses an 8 MP lens. 

The Lava Blaze NXT also comes equipped with a 3.5 mm audio hack and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. It also has Face Unlock as one of its key features. As for connectivity options, you’ve got 4G, dual-SIM support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v5, GPS, and OTG.
