World's 'smallest' mobile unveiled in Japan
At a time when smartphone screens are getting bigger and bigger, Japanese outfit Willcom has bucked the trend and announced what it claims is the world’s smallest and lightest mobile phone.
The little-known electronics vendor will launch the munchkin-sized “Strap Phone 2 WX06A” on 21 March. It features a tiny 96x64 resolution, 1in screen – around a sixth of the size of the world’s biggest smartphone, Huawei’s Ascend Mate – and weighs in at just 32g.
With dimensions of just 32 × 70 × 10.7mm, it can only manage to cram in a 400mAh battery, providing just 2 hours of talk time, and 300 hours on standby.
Email, text and phone functionality is all that the device can handle, although given the size of the keys it will be remarkable if anyone other than a small child can use the phone effectively.
