Since the past few product launches we have been observing smartphone manufacturers focussing on their consumer experience rather than just battling with their respective spec sheet. This is actually good for the end consumers but it has to be explained to them.
Panasonic India last week announced their latest smartphone, the ELUGA Arc in India featuring one of its kind 2.5D curved HD IPS display. Adding to the hardware specifications listed below, it comes featured with 4G VoLTE and quick charging technology. It is ready for corporate communications backed up by a fingerprint sensor and fully compatible for ‘Android for Work’. The complete feature list can be glanced below.

Pricing and Availability
We actually liked the handset for its ergonomic hold and that 2.5D curved display. The device felt and looked premium but that 1800mAh battery capacity sounded like a bummer. The Panasonic ELUGA Arc is priced at ₹12,490 and will be available major online and offline retailers across the country. We shall get to know more when we actually use the device but the market sale predictions as of now still look out for specifications which can turn it down.
