When it comes to specs, Micromax Dual 5 flaunts a 5.5-inch full HD (1080p) AMOLED display which is protected by Corning Gorilla 3. Under the hood, it is powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 652 processor along with 4GB of RAM and comes with 128GB of internal storage that can be expanded using a microSD card.
