Yotaphones Dual-screen Smartphone Launches in UK

YotaphoneYotaphone has launched its first handset, an Android smartphone available for £419, in the UK.

Thats hardly unusual, but the device has one particularly striking point of differentiation – it features two screens.

Along with a standard 4.3” LCD touchscreen display, the back of the device features an always-on screen. This second screen resembles the monochrome display of an eReader, using the same electronic paper technology to show notifications and basic information.

The company unveiled a second-generation version of its device at MWC, adding full touch control to the second screen, which is due to launch in Q4.
