Following reports from earlier this month that Micromax will be launching a CyanogenMod-based smartphone this year, a new report claims the unannounced smartphone will be called the Micromax Canvas 5 and also details some of its specifications, while corroborating the release timeline.

Tipped to launch with a price tag below the Rs. 22,000 mark, the rumoured Micromax Canvas 5 is said to include a 5-inch full-HD display. The smartphone is also tipped to be powered by a new MediaTek MT67xx octa-core chipset paired with 2GB of RAM.

The yet-to-be-announced Canvas 5 might is said to come with 16GB of inbuilt storage that is expandable via microSD card (unspecified maximum capacity). An 18-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera are also expected on the handset, according to the DroidGoblin website.

The rumoured CyanogenMod-based Micromax Canvas 5 smartphone goes in-line with a report that surfaced earlier this month indicating Cyanogen had entered a deal with Indian mobile manufacturer Micromax to release a CyanogenMod-powered handset as early as the end of the year. The report notably also claimed that Cyanogen had recently turned down a Google buyout offer made by SVP of Android, Sundar Pichai.

The report claimed the release date of the CyanogenMod Micromax handset is still uncertain. However, if the reported deal is real, it may see Cyanogen taking a bite out of Google's Android One ambitions with a low-cost offering that remains up-to-date through Cyanogen's frequent iterations.

Also, Cyanogen is reportedly being eyed by several major companies for a partnership or acquisition, according to a report from August. Companies such as Amazon,Microsoft, Samsung and Yahoo are among the big names that are considering the mobile software startup Cyanogen as a 'potential partner or acquisition target.'
