Notes: Launched 24 Aug 2026 at Rs 15,999 (Rs 13,999 effective with Rs 2,000 card offer); Flipkart sale from 31 Aug. One report says it is also sold via retail from Sept 2026 as 'Shark 2 Pro 5G'. Dimensions/weight (168.29x77.64x8.68 mm, 207 g) appear on a press coverage page but the identical figures show up for the Virat Curve 5G, so treated as unreliable and left null. Rear camera: single 50MP AI sensor stated; secondary details unspecified. 550 nits is HBM per one source.
