Lava Agni 2 5G teased by senior executive, set to launch soon in India: full details

Lava Agni 2 5G might be launched soon by the company in India. The local smartphone brand is working on launching the successor to the Lava Agni 5G which launched in 2021, according to a cryptic teaser shared by a senior executive. Lava is one of a handful of smartphone brands originating from India, one of the largest and most diverse smartphone markets in the world. Specs for the handset have already surfaced online, suggesting the handset will be powered by an octa-core MediaTek chipset and sport a display with a 90Hz refresh rate.

In a recent tweet, Lava Chairman Sunil Raina posted two fire emoji followed by a single word – “Soon”. While there’s no further confirmation from the company on any new phone launch plans, Raina’s cryptic tweet appears to refer to the rumored Lava Agni 2 handset.

Twitter users in the comments section were quick to respond to Raina’s teaser stating that the two fire emojis indicate a successor to the Lava Agni 5G is coming soon.

However, some users predicted that the index could be a hook for another product in Lava’s Blaze 5G line of smartphones.

Previous reports suggested that the Lava Agni 2 5G would be a mid-range handset, priced between Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 25,000. It is designed to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chipset, along with a 5000 mAh battery. It could also feature 128GB of storage and sport a 6.5-inch AMOLED display.

The company recently launched the Lava Yuva 2 Pro, a smartphone priced below Rs. 10,000, in India. The company has yet to officially announce plans to launch the Lava Blaze Pro 2 5G or any other Lava Blaze smartphone in the country.
