The YotaPhone 2 is the world’s first dual-screen always-on smartphone. It has an LCD front display and e-ink back display with marathon battery life.
Why a dual-screen phone? The e-ink display at the back handles always-on display and notifications so the primary screen is never woken up except when needed. You can also access social networks and e-read with it. This keeps eye-stress and power consumption down.
The YotaPhone 2 combines the full functions of an Android smartphone with the benefits of an Electronic Paper Display.

Funny design, I like the creativity.
But this has been out for a long time now…
What a beautiful design cum good specs!
Ebook reader + smartphone. Still, it’s a niche product.
great specs… but got killed with the lack of expandable storage
Yes! How did I fail to notice that?
