With phone users demanding faster browsing speeds, 4G services perfectly fit customers’ needs. 190 out of every 250 phones Flipkart sold during the event were 4G-enabled smartphones. Some of the top devices that the e-commerce site sold during the event include;
- Samsung J Series smartphones.
- Moto X and Moto G3.
- Lenovo K3 Note.
The increase in sales has been immense due to 4G smartphones finally being available under Rs. 10,000. Over 6 million units have been sold during the five days.
The affordable devices that are 4G enabled were launched approximately ten months ago. Still, Flipkart’s offers boosted 4G-enabled smartphones from 2 million devices to 8 million devices in just five days.
