Water may be the most feared thing by the electronic devices
including smartphones, there are a lot of sad and disappointing experiences when
a smartphone is exposed to water or even immersed in water. Although currently
there are many waterproof smartphones, but those smartphones will still sink if
they are plunged into water.
A new innovation in the smartphone realm comes from a
company named Comet Core, this company has created a smartphone named Comet Smartphone that's claimed as the world's first smartphone that can float on the
water.
With this capability, users don't have to worry if their
smartphones sink, because in addition to be waterproof, the Comet Smartphone
has the ability to be floating on the water surface.
Not only comes with floating capability, this smartphone
will be packed with qualified specifications and features. Comet Smartphone
brings 4.7 inch AMOLED screen at a resolution of Quad HD 720 x 1280 pixels, two
cameras with 16 megapixel lens modules on the front and rear, interestingly
these cameras can be used to take photos simultaneously.
Comet Smartphone is orchestrated by Qualcomm's Snapdragon
810 chipset that brings 2.5GHz octa-core processor. It is also supported by 4GB
RAM and two internal storage options of 32GB and 64GB.
For the daily operation, Comet Smartphone is running on
Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system and is powered by a 2,800mAh battery.
This smartphone also comes with encrypted software to secure the data stored in
it.
Comet Core as the company behind the birth of Comet Smartphone is now collecting the fund through a crowdfunding site IndieGogo. A
