Telecommunications company Digicel is adding the sleek, sexy DL1000 handset to its line of DL smartphones. The launch of the DL1000 follows closely behind its predecessor – the DL910, which was released in July.

Supported by the popular Android OS (Lollipop), the new DL1000 comes in a variety of colours and features 1GB RAM, 1.3 GHz Quad Core processor, 8GB ROM, a 5.5 inch screen and a 10 megapixel camera with flash – all perfectly packaged in an aesthetically appealing and fresh design.

Fully loaded with a range of useful apps like Sportsmax, My Digicel, Loop, Digicel Space and Digicel Top Up, the best value handset makes the perfect Christmas gift for young people on the go who want style, functionality, affordability and fast 4G speeds.

John Delves, Chief Commercial Officer, Digicel Group comments; “The DL1000 smartphone is all about ensuring that even more customers have access to the amazing experience of 4G. So it’s about accessibility, style and affordability. Importantly, with video streaming becoming the fastest-growing phenomenon in mobile, the 5.5 inch screen delivers a bigger and better streaming experience for customers – it’s becoming like your own TV in the palm of your hands.”

Since its introduction to the market in 2013, the Digicel line of sleek, fun and affordable smartphones continues to empower more people to do more, play more, listen more and share more.
