Kodak has launched its second smartphone called Ektra. The once camera giant, kodak is now a struggling company and is hoping to stay afloat by the help of this phone.
As typical to the company, the phone is majorly a camera phone. It has a large back camera and looks just like a digital camera from behind. The phone looks bulky but is surprisingly light weight. Also, it has curved edges which make it easier to hold. The front is a usual 5-inch HD screen. On its sides we have a dedicated camera button which locks focus in camera mode and also launches camera app. Above it we have the usual volume buttons and the power button.
The phone comes with android marshmallow and till now no news of its up gradation is out yet. It comes with a 3gb RAM and a 32gb internal memory, which is expandable up to 128gb.
The main feature of the phone is its camera, It has a 21 MP back camera with flash, auto focus and optical image stabilization. The front camera is 13 MP with f2.2 and auto focus. The rear camera also shoots 4k videos. The camera also comes with a touch digital dial, which is an exact replica of the manual dial seen on digital cameras. It is useful for changing camera modes. Kodak has pre-loaded tge phone with many camera apps.
The phone has a Helios X20 processor and a 3000mAh battery. So, maybe the phone is not good for gamer but is defiantly a good choice for camera lovers.
The company has not revealed its price yet, hence it is not known which phone is it up against. Due to its bad processor, the phone cant be used for much except photography. Its camera is the only high point for this phone. The phone infect, can be seen as a digital camera which can also be used for calling purposes. At the end, if you are not purely a camera lover, I wouldn’t recommend this phone.
