Indian mobile handsets company Micromax launched a touch screen smartphone, modu T, in partnership with Israel-based modu Limited .

The 3.5G modu T was awarded the Guinness World Record for being the lightest touch phone in the world.

Priced at Rs.12,000, the 2.2-inch touch screen phone will be available in the market with pre-bundled 2GB memory card from Oct 22.

The phone comes with two “fy” devices, jackets, which when connected, add new features to the phone. The “camerafy” jacket converts the phone into a camera with a 5 megapixel resolution and LED flash. Alternatively, you can also “sportfy” your modu T phone and turn it into your exercise companion.

modu is a modular phone, which operates on Qualcomm’s Brew operating system, offers a variety of applications such as YouTube, Google Search, Twitter, Facebook Flickr, TuneWiki, eBuddy and Snaptu.

Vikas Jain, business director said Micromax is also looking forward to launch tablets in the market.

The company has also filed a draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with securities and exchange board of India for an initial public offering (IPO)
