Is twice as much twice as good? This question will have been resolved, the electronics company Kyocera: On Monday night the company presented in New York before the first smartphone that is equipped with two touch screen displays. "We challenge you to a dual," sounds of U.S. mobile provider Sprint on its website.
The wit is to point out the outstanding feature of the new phones, the Group offers exclusive now: it has two screens. By so doing, the Kyocera echo, like the phone is unusual, the largest screen in its class. On a total of 4.7 inches measured the copywriter the base of the double displays.
Unlike already available, bulky devices with 4-inch display will be the response to stow even more handy. Made possible by the dual display. One of the two touch-screens can be pushed behind the other when you put away the echo or just simply wants to call. Using a special hinge allows the second screen lightly bring out again and the whole area is available again.
In this way, would be four different application scenarios can be imagined as Kyocera: The On-screen mode: The mobile phone is used for making phone calls, only one screen is active, the other disappears behind the Tablet mode: Both screens work, as if they were only one screen. Photos, movies and Web sites to be opened over the entire area.
The Simul-Task Mode: The made-up word, invented by Kyocera is to indicate that in this mode, two apps side by side, one for each screen, run. So you can see photos above and below chat - if you can do that. The optimized mode: The control window of an app be distributed on the two screens.
Thus, for example, above to watch a video while you search out even among the next. With no restrictions, however, does not. The Simul-Task mode, for example, work only seven, provided by the manufacturer Apps. It can likewise be ausreizen the optimized mode only if the particular app is designed for such use.
Otherwise, however, is likely to echo can easily fit with extra software, because Google's Android operating system it is 2.2. Whether it is an update of this software to Android 3.0, Honyeycomb, or give to the soon anticipated Android 2.4, Kyocera can now open. Of the technical data but there is no doubt.
Apart from the double screen, there are no surprises: It is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 1 GHz faster processor, a gigabyte of memory is installed, an 8-gigabyte SD card with the device, the camera takes pictures with each of the five-megapixel resolution and Both displays have a diagonal of 3.5 inches, as the iPhone.
There is little goodies but it still, and that is fully tailored to the U.S. market: audio and text messages on the device communicates with its users, may be selectively reproduced in English or Spanish. Sprint is offering the echo of U.S. customers for pre-order immediately at the price for connecting a mobile phone contract is specified with 199 dollars.
Whether the echo will appear in a version for the European market is unclear. Perhaps the producers wait with such a notice also to the mobile phone Mobile World Congress show in Barcelona next week.
