Spice mobile plans to launch its latest smartphone - Spice Mi 410 - in the first week of June this year, according to a report on The Mobile Indian. This phone will run Android 2.2, and will be an upgrade to the Spice Mi 310.

The Spice Mi 410 will sport a 4.1-inch capacitive touchscreen display as against the 3.15 inch of the Mi 310. It will be powered by a Qualcomm 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, while its predecessor has a Qualcomm MSM7227 600 MHz processor. Similarly, the camera has also been upgraded to a solid 5 megapixel from a paltry 2 megapixel.

Connectivity options include 3.5G, HSDPA 7.2Mbps, quad-band, UMTS 2100 MHz, and Wi-Fi, along with Bluetooth 2.1. The phone can work as a Wi-Fi hotspot, supporting up to five connected Wi-Fi devices. USB tethering support allows you to use it as a modem to access the internet when you connect it to your computer or laptop. It also has GPS with AGPS to access location-based services. Since it runs Android 2.2, you can always enhance its productivity by downloading apps from the Android Market. The 1GHz Snapdragon processor makes sure that the apps won't slow down, while the 4.1 inch screen with 480x800 pixel resolution will actually allow the apps to run without slowing down, as is usually the case with comparatively inexpensive Android phones, and also look good.
