Docoss X1: Is It Similar To Freedom 251 Or Something New?

New Delhi: It has not been very long since Ringing Bells, a Noida based company introduced Freedom 251, a smartphone that shot into fame in no time. We haven't yet forgotten the legal issues, criticisms and controversies faced by the company. We still don't know about the fate of those people who booked the smartphone online, almost considering it their dream phone! And now, another company seems to be taking its baby steps. Docoss Multimedia Pvt Ltd which claims to be having its office in Jaipur, Rajasthan, has recently announced a smartphone for just Rs 888. Dubbed as the Docoss X1, the smartphone is being claimed to sport a 4 inch display screen, 1 GB RAM, 4 GB internal storage, dual core processor, 2 MP camera, and 0.2 MP Front camera. The smartphone is said to be backed by a 1,300 mAh battery and runs on Android 4.4 KitKat. The smartphone is currently available for booking on its website http://www.docoss.com until April 29. According to claims, the X1 will be shipped from May 2. But much like Freedom 251, the Docoss website has also been reported to have crashed making space for more negative thoughts about the device. Now, don't be surprised! Even we haven't heard about the company before, but somehow the Docoss X1 is managing to grab the interest of the Internet population. However, the scheme somehow reminds us of Freedom 251 by Ringing Bells. Reporting on the new Docoss X1, Tech2 seems to have found out that the company's domain was registered a couple of hours ago. This is one more thing that runs down chills in our spine! This doesn't end here. In-fact, if you visit Docoss's FB page, you can come across a comment by a person with a hyperlink to winklestar.com. That's another smartphone being sold by a company without any office details. The price is Rs 299. What's happening? Are we able to understand the difference between scams and reality? Are we being cheated in the face of wanting to buy a budget smartphone? May be Docoss is a real, legal company dealing ethically. But, how are we supposed to trust them, keeping in mind the fate of Freedom 251, still remains a question!
