The company holds more than 6000 patents and produces more than 60 million smartphones every year. Its smartphones come with custom CoolLife UI, on top of Android, similar to its Chinese rivals. It will be interesting to see how these Chinese smartphone brands compete with each other, as well as YU, a subsidiary brand of Micromax, which focusses on online only strategy to sell smartphones, and relies on the famous Cyanogen OS for its software and UI.

We are excited to be partnering with one of China’s leading smartphone manufacturers, Coolpad as they enter the Indian market. The brand is renowned for high quality products and has been first-to-market with many innovations including curved screen phone, dual rear camera and unibody inside phone. At Snapdeal, we are committed to making Coolpad’s maiden launch in India a big success. We are positive that we will see a tremendous response from our wide user base towards this launch.
