At one time, the trend for Smartphones was Bigger. However, the headline at the 2019 Mobile World Congress is Bendable mobility. Whether it be the announcements of Samsung’s Galaxy Fold or Huawei’s Mate X or TCL’s DragonHinge. Life has changed dramatically for smart phones. Mobility has gone on a bender.
Not to be left out. Chinese Smartphone innovator Nubia Technology has given us a different perspective on bendable mobility. The Nubia Alpha is a Flexible, 4-inch, OLED smart phone wrap-around screen that can be wrapped around your wrist as a wearable.
Crafted from Anodized Stainless Steel with a real 18k gold variant plated band, the Alpha is available in both black and gold colors. The 4 inch display has a resolution of 960 x 192. This device is powered by a Qualcomm® SnapdragonTM and runs a Nubia‘s custom Android-based OS. This device comes with a 5 megapixel camera and 1GB of RAM + 8GB of onboard memory. The battery life on the Alpha is approximately one to two days of regular use (up to a week of standby time).
The Nubia Alpha will come in two versions. A Bluetooth version that will be available in April of 2019 on the Global Market. And a eSIM (4G) version that will be available in China in April 2019, Europe in Q3 2019 and in North America in Q4 2019.
