Highlights
  • The new Yu flagship was set to launch on Thursday, May 19.
  • The company had delayed the launch due to election results.
  • Yu has teased the Yunicorn will be competitively priced.

Micromax subsidiary Yu Televentures on Wednesday announced the new date for the launch of its latest flagship smartphone, the Yu Yunicorn. It will now be launched at a New Delhi event on May 31.

The company postponed Thursday's launch earlier this week, saying the event would have clashed with election results of five states that are due out on the same day.

The company started sending media invites for an event on Thursday earlier this month where the company confirmed to unveil its next flagship smartphone - the Yunicorn. The teaser shared by Yu had hinted that the Yunicorn flagship might be priced competitively.
