The sites were also evaluated basis aspects such as size, direction of exposure and aspect ratios to ensure key visuals shone through the creative’s strongly.

The smartphones are the hero of the communication and the concept was therefore built around showcasing the smartphones aesthetically and the dominant focus was to reinforce assets such as brand identity, name and key features.

Large format static media sites have been used to achieve the objective of the brand, across New Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru airport terminals targeting domestic passengers from last week of September. The campaign is up and running for a total duration of 3 months.
