Today comes unexpectedly and the launch of Palm Phone, a strange smartphone that has nothing in common with the phones a few years ago.It is a compact device that apparently has the role of companion for the smartphone already owned and which is launched exclusively through the verizon operator at a huge price of $ 349, related to the package we receive here.
The phone has 3 LCD screen.3 Inch, Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 processor, 3 GB RAM and 32 GB of Flash storage (no microSD card support).The 800 mAh battery is also offered that according to the specifications revealed by the manufacturer promises a day of autonomy and up to 3 days in standby, and as OS we have part 8.1 oreo.
We also receive an 8 MPX front camera, 12 MPX camera with rear LED, but also IP68 certification for water and dust resistance.The Google Assistant vocal assistant, software unlocking and an interface based on fixed icons as we have on a smartwatch is also brought here..
Because it is about smartwatch, this is also the role of Palmphone - that of companion for the phone in our pocket.It will divide the same phone number with the main and apparent device, the palm goal is to reduce the dependence on the big devices.The idea doesn't sound bad at all, just that such a phone does not impress at all.
With a battery that only resists one day and price even higher than a much more capable smartwatch, Palm Phone is just a way in which the Chinese manufacturer TCL takes advantage of the American brand name to make some profit.
