"Aqua Qwerty is a product which offers the convenience of both touch and type features for users who are QWERTY lovers but wish to explore the touch experience at the same time," Intex Business Head (Mobile) Sanjay Kumar Kalirona said.

Intex has stepped into the QWERTY keypad smartphone segment after a lot of market research and believes that the Aqua Qwerty will be a vehicle of smartphone adoption in the highly untapped segment of women smartphone users in India, he added.
