Core processor, Elite Plus is equipped to handle all demanding tasks while giving the best 3D gaming
experience on a Smartphone. A 2GB RAM powers Elite Plus to handle multi-tasking without breaking a

that a premium device must be compatible with high-speed connectivity standards, designers of Elite
Plus have ensured supports 2G/3G/4G LTE/ EVDO/CDMA standards at breathtaking speeds, helping user

lovers, Elite Plus offers new edition of speakers that offers superior acoustics, with a dedicated amplifier

Despite being packed with superior features, the stunningly beautiful lightweight and powerful new Swipe Elite Plus comes at attractive price point. A price tag of INR 6999/- makes Elite Plus an object of desire that is truly affordable for the aspiring youth. Swipe’s new offering will be available exclusively fromFlipkart.com from 6th June onwards
The growth in the Internet base in India has been exponential and rising penetration of smartphones is fueling this growth. According to a recent Boston Consultancy Group (BCG) report,
INDIA@DIGITAL.BHARAT, it took 20 years from the introduction on the Internet to reach 100 million users. The second 200 million will likely be reached within three years, and a third in less than a year. In fact, the next four years will see nearly 350 million additional Internet users. The primary drivers of this
exponential growth have been expansion to small towns / rural India, increased affordability due to lower-cost data-enabled smartphones and ever-increasing awareness of, and need for, the Internet. “It
has been endevour of Swipe to offer lower-cost feature-rich to the aspiring youth from tier-2 and tier-3
towns, thus contributing to true digitalization of India,” says Mr Gandhi. Mr Ajay Yadav, VP – Smartphones, Flipkart, said “We are delighted to announce Flipkart’s exclusive
association with Swipe to launch its latest offering Elite Plus. We have received overwhelming response –
especially from tier 2 and tier 3 towns – for all Swipe products that we have sold in the past. With its enriched features and attractive price tag, we expect great response for this flagship device from Swipe.”
