The phone was designed for someone who loves music, being in the mix, and socialising with their crew. Basically it has everything Cassper would want in a phone.

Some of the high-end features specified by Cassper include 4G LTE for faster data speeds for internet browsing, a 13MP back camera and 5MP front camera for awesome selfies, increased battery power, and a 5.5” Corning Gorilla3 glass screen for watching music videos in high definition.
