Lava Storm Play and Storm Lite launching in India on June 13
Lava has confirmed the launch date for its new smartphones, the Storm Play and Storm Lite, scheduled for June 13th in India. The devices will be available for purchase exclusively on Amazon India. A dedicated Amazon listing has revealed key design elements and hardware specifications ahead of the launch. Let's take a look at what these devices may offer.
The Lava Storm Play will be the first smartphone globally to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 7060 chipset. This octa-core processor clocks up to 2.6GHz and includes an IMG BXM-8-256 GPU for graphics processing. The phone will come equipped with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, indicating a focus on performance and speed improvements. Design-wise, the Storm Play sports a boxy frame with rounded corners. The volume rocker and power buttons sit on the right side of the device.

The phone's right edge holds the volume rocker and power button. The Storm Lite appears in a beige or gold shade, while the Storm Play comes in blue.
