itel has announced a complete transition to Type-C charging across its entire feature phone lineup.
While Type-C ports are standard across modern smartphones and select mid-tier feature phones, the technology has remained rare in the lowest-priced feature phone segment due to cost constraints.
This move aims to bring the standard to entry-level devices, aligning the feature phone category with broader industry trends.
Portfolio Expansion: The itel HeeraAlongside the portfolio-wide transition, itel announced the upcoming launch of the Heera, an entry-level feature phone designed to showcase this new standard.
The device will ship with native Type-C charging support, targeting budget-conscious consumers looking for updated hardware features at an accessible price point.
