One major highlighted features of Micromax Unite 2 is that the smartphone comes preloaded with 21 Indian languages. One type, chat and save contacts in their mother tongue. It comes with inbuilt language fonts supported by a personalized predictive typing interface with Reverie Smartpad.

We firmly believe that support for local languages on phones will perhaps be the next big driver for day to day phone transactions, internet usage and online content consumption in India given that most of the population does not use English as their primary language. We aim to create a powerful medium for our consumers to interact, engage, entertain and connect in their preferred language to remove any barrier for technology adoption for the masses in the country.” commented Shubhodip Pal, CMO, Micromax.
