Indian consumer technology brand Mivi recently announced that it will enter India’s smartphone market this month with the Mivi One 5G. Now, Mivi has announced that the Mivi One 5G will launch in India on September 24.
Additionally, Mivi gave us a glimpse of the Mivi One 5G’s design. The smartphone’s flat back panel features a vertically aligned camera island, housing two cameras of unknown resolution. The camera module also has a flash on its right side, and at the top of the phone is what appears to be the secondary mic.
Mivi says the One 5G will be the only smartphone in its price segment to be powered by a Snapdragon chip. While the company didn’t reveal the chip’s name, Geekbench has multiple listings for the smartphone mentioning SM4450 – a part number for the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC.
Those Geekbench listings also reveal the Mivi One 5G will run Android 16 out of the box and offer at least three RAM options – 4GB, 6GB, and 8GB.

Commenting on Mivi’s entry into the Indian smartphone market, Viswanadh Kandula, Co-Founder, Mivi, said, “The first decade of Mivi was about proving that an Indian company could build, design and manufacture consumer technology for discerning Indian consumers. Smartphones are the natural next steps in that journey. Our goal is to build similar end-to-end capabilities in-house for smartphones. This is the kind of ambition we enter any space with and we are excited to start the journey of building ground up capabilities in the country. Mivi One is not just our first smartphone; it is the first expression of our ambition to build a global consumer technology company from India.“
