YU Yureka is an Android-based cyanogen smartphone produced by YU Televentures, a subsidiary company of Micromax Informatics. It has a caption "Play God".[3] The device was released in January 2015 exclusively on the Amazon India website at a price of INR 8,999. It is the first phone from the Yu brand and offers great specifications at low prices, focusing on the increased customisation options offered by the CyanogenMod operating system that Yu preloads onto its devices. The Yureka (Review)[4] and Yuphoria (Review),[5] Yu's next version, both offer the benefits of customisability and great specifications at competitive prices, and have enjoyed some success. Yureka is a dual SIM phone and it supports Cat4 4G LTE with TDD 2300 MHz and FDD 1800 MHz bands supported for India.
Volume rocker button is located on the left side and the power/standby button on the right. The 3.5 mm audio-jack is located on top and the micro USB charging and data transfer port is located on the base. There is no Micromax branding on the phone, instead, the YU brand name in a light blue colour is visible on the back.
It's powered by the 64-bit ARMv8 Qualcomm Snapdragon 615(MSM8939) system on chip which houses an octa-core processor and the Adreno 405 GPU clocked at 550 MHz. It comes paired with 2 GB of DDR3 RAM and offers 16 GB of storage of which 12.8 GB is available to the user. The storage is expandable via the microSD card slot by 32 GB.[6]
The 5.5-inch(Plus Version) IPS panel display comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. The resolution of the display is 1280*720 which accounts to 267 PPI pixel
