Chinese smartphone maker CoolPad has officially announced a new entry-level smartphone in it’s domestic market known as the CoolPad COOL 20s. Priced at just 999 Yuan ($148), the CoolPad COOL 20s is available in three different colorways such as Black, White and Blue.

Imaging-wise, the CoolPad COOL 20s relies on a dual-cam setup on the rear side which is lead by a 50 megapixels (f/1.8 aperture) main camera and a 2 megapixels macro camera for close-up photography. To help with snapping photos under low-light environment, the phone also has a LED flash unit that sits within the same camera housing.
Under the hood, the CoolPad COOL 20s is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset which is also used in the recently announced Realme V20 5G smartphone. This will be paired with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB built-in storage in the memory department.
