Panasonic India on Tuesday launched the Eluga Switch, their latest smartphone, in India. The phone has a 5.5- inch full HD display which rotates 360° when one turns the phone. The display will face the user, even when held upside down. The phone is priced at Rs 19,990.
 
The company claims the phone comes integrated with 3D audio and has JBL-powered 1.2W dual front speakers. 
The phone sports a 13-megapixel (MP) rear camera and an 8MP front camera with 84°  shooting angle, which will help with group selfie shots. The touchscreen is laminated, which the company says will reduce the harsh glare of reflections.
The Eluga Switch supports 4G LTE and has a Qualcomm 1.5GHz octa core Snapdragon 610 processor with 2GB RAM. It has 32GB of internal memory, and a 2,910 mAh Li-ion battery.
