The device does not boasts any new hardware. It runs on Snapdragon 410 64-bit quad core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz and coupled with 2 GB of ram. For gaming and graphic department we get a Adreno 306 GPU. The phone is having a medium 5 inch screen size which really doesn’t seems big considering the phone releasing now days.
The phone packs a lot of sensor like ambient light, gyro, acclerometer, orientation, magnetic, proximity, roatation vector, linear acceleration and gravity sensor( pheww! that’s a lot) . You can see them listed in the below image of CPU-Z. Many users have been reporting the issues of proximity sensor while calling that the screen dosen’t lit up again. YU has seen the problem have claimed to fix it through next OTA update but there is now news on when the update will be rolled out.
