Title: YotaPhone 2 @ Showstoppers - CES 2015
Post by: Fujitsu on January 07, 2015, 01:52:57 AM

A product we've talked about on Weekly Tech Update a couple times before is the mysterious YotaPhone 2, a smartphone on one side and an e-ink display on the other side. The original YotaPhone got extra marks for creativity thanks to the unique feature and now the YotaPhone 2 picks up where the original left off.

Today was the first time I had the chance to actually see one live and in person at CES Showstoppers and overall I was pleasantly surprised at the overall build quality and functionality (especially since YotaPhone is a new name in the smartphone market). The e-ink side of the phone is surprisingly useful and if you were to only use the e-ink side you'd be able to make it almost 6 days without charging the battery. Of course the beauty of the YotaPhone 2 is the fact that if you have options, but I have a funny feeling that people will probably be using the e-ink side more than you might think which will extend the time between charges.
