Its aluminum uni-body houses a 5.5-inch 1080p display with 2.5D glass. Pepsi Phone P1 packs a 13MP primary camera with f/2.0 Samsung camera sensor with less-than-ideal 1.12 pixels and a 5MP front shooter for selfies. A non-removable 3000mAh battery powers the device.

The Pepsi Phone P1 is a dual SIM (both GSM) smartphone that accepts Micro-SIM and Nano-SIM. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, 3G, and 4G. The smartphone's sensors include Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor, Accelerometer, and Gyroscope, according to Daily Mail Online.
