#GTUMWC2018: Lava is going to release their first Android Go smartphone, dubbed as the Lava Z50. This will make Lava the first Indian smartphone brand to create an Android Go smartphone.

Lava has confirmed that this smartphone is eligible for Airtel’s “Mera Pehla Smartphone” cashback offer with one-time screen replacement. The price of the smartphone has not been revealed but we know that it will be priced in the budget segment.
