In India, now after the Freedom 251, ChampOne C1 is a new smartphone that has gotten its 15 minutes of fame. ChampOne is a company no one has heard of before, but still it plans to sell ChampOne C1 smartphone at Rs 501. Now the company claims the phone actually costs Rs 7,999, but they are still selling it at Rs 501. Oh, and they plan to launch a watch, tablet soon as well.
With ChampOne C1 the specifications are what sound incredible if you consider the Rs 501 price tag: 2GB RAM, Android Lollipop 5.1, 16GB storage, 5-inch display HD display, 1.3GHz processor, and  8MP rear camera. How a newcomer plans to offer such specifications at Rs 501 is beyond our comprehension, especially as the minimum cost of manufacturing smartphones is Rs 2,400. In this case, ChampOne is already admitting the price is Rs 7,999, which begs the question: Why sell it at Rs 501?

ChampOne C1 claims it will have a flash sale on September 2, and will offer cash on delivery. But apparently, users are unable to register to buy the phone due to some ‘technical’ issue. ChampOne’s About Us page doesn’t tell you much about the company and the website is full of grammatical errors.
In Contact us, there is a helpline number, and location for an office in Jodhpur. But ChampOne is not the first one to offer a smartphone dirt cheap. We look at other smartphones that came up in India this year, offering phones at incredible pricing.
