The Micromax Yu5050 will be MicroMax’s first smartphone to feature the Snapdragon 810, although very underclocked at 1.5GHz CPU (most likely due to Overheating issues), but you get 4GB of RAM. Other MicroMax Yu5050 specs, include a 5.2-inch full-HD display and the Micromax Yu5050 comes with Cyanogen 12.1 pre-installed and will have full Cyangogen Mod support.

With this Micromax Yu5050, Micromax is positioning themselves in direct competition to OnePlus. There is already a rivalry between OnePlus and MicroMax over the usage of Cyanogen Mod in India. Since Cyanogen Mod made an exclusive contract with MicroMax in India, OnePlus was disallowed to use Cyanogen Mode, which eventually led to the development of OnePlus own Oxygen OS.

The Micromax Yu5050 price will be 315 USD and will be launched on tuesday, exclusively with Snapdral in India. Following Xiaomi’s strategy Micromax will also launch a budget version of their Yureka phone. The Yu4711 will comes with 64-Bit Snapdragon 410, and 1GB of Ram. Of course you also get Cyanogen Mod. We will have more Infos on 8th September.
