The M5 Plus runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop and is powered by a 1.3 GHz Octa Core processor with 3 GB RAM. The device comes with a good internal storage of 64 GB, which is expandable up to 128 GB.

The 13 megapixel rear camera comes with LED flash and front camera is of 5 megapixels. The M5 Plus features a finger print scanner embedded with the home button in the front. The dual-SIM device supports 4G VoLTE .

If you are someone who is continuously hooked to the phone, the M5 Plus could be the right choice, which can get you max uptime without any ‘low battery’ interruptions — costing you Rs 26,999.
