If various reports doing the rounds on the web are to be believed, the second generation YotaPhone will be released at the MWC 2014 slated to be held next week in Barcelona, Spain. Nothing has been revealed about the device as yet and according to the grapevine, it will be unveiled on February 24 itself, that is, this Monday.
It was the guys over at the Russian website called Hi-tech.mail.ru who happened to dig up this piece of information, reports BGR. Naturally, the YotaPhone 2 will have dual screens just like its predecessor that went up for sale in December last year. The front side will be dominated by a regular touchscreen, while the rear panel will continue to be fitted with an E-ink display.
The next generation smartphone is likely to be bigger than the device that is already available. Which means that you can expect bigger displays. Also, the rear-facing E-ink display of the YotaPhone 2 will be blessed with full touch capabilities as well. The device will most probably be powered by the Android OS.
Let’s have a quick recap of the features and specifications of the original device. It is the proud owner of two 4.3-inch touchscreens, a 13MP camera as well as a 1MP webcam. A dual core Snapdragon processor sprinting at 1.7GHz powers the device and it brings 2GB of RAM and a 1800mAh battery. The phone makes the most of the Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 OS.
The YotaPhone 2 should be released at the MWC 2014 next week, but there has not been an official announcement to confirm the same as yet.
