Lava today expanded its portfolio of Blaze series smartphones with the unveiling of the Lava Blaze Dragon.
The Lava Blaze Dragon is a budget smartphone, which is “designed for today’s youth” and is powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC. It has 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of UFS 3.1 storage onboard, and it runs Android 15 out of the box with “zero bloatware.” Lava has promised one OS upgrade and two years of security updates for the Blaze Dragon.

For photography, you get an 8MP selfie camera on the front and a 50MP primary camera on the rear, accompanied by what could be a depth unit. The Lava Blaze Dragon also features a 3.5mm headphone jack and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for password-less unlocking of the smartphone.
