The company announced the update in
tweet and referred to it as a "bug-fix OT
update." Notably, the update is an
incremental update and brings security
fixes, improvements for proximity sensor
and dual-SIM functionality. The update
comes with build number XNPH05Q and
is about 73MB in size.
Yu on Wednesday announced the numbe
of units going on sale in the fourth flash
sale in a tweet.
The third flash sale of Micromax's Yu
Yureka (Review | Images ) last week saw
10,000 smartphones going out of stock
in 3 seconds on Amazon India while the
second flash sale saw 15,000 units bein
grabbed in just 4 seconds. The first flas
sale that had seen 10,000 units go out
stock in 3 seconds also saw a lot of
controversy with site glitches including
incorrect price listings and allegations
the company actually made only 3,000
units available for sale.
Last week, the company announced a
special Yu Yureka sale for contest
winners and "impacted customers" who
were unable to avail the smartphone in
the previous two sales to due to incorrec
price listings or payment issues, as well
as for those customers that received
defective or damaged units.

Yureka offers some rather impressive
specifications at the price. The dual-SIM
