Gone are the days of big, uninspiring and bulky devices, which are now replaced with stylish and functional feature rich devices. It is to address this emerging aspiration that we have introduced the V-Style feature phone range that offers best in class looks and features. With the V-style range the consumers will now not be embarrassed carrying their feature phone in their peer group as their own phone will compete with costly smartphones in terms of style, looks and features.
