What is the future of smartphones? Well, you might search the answer to that from the latest technology that is being offered by renowned companies such as Samsung and Apple. But have you stopped to wonder where is the smartphone industry leading? From feature phones to smartphones and today's super smartphones with 6GB RAM, deca-core processors, dual cameras and modular designs, the smartphone industry has evolved multi-folds.
Even with this level of growth, the smartphone industry hasn't reached its peak. What's next, you may ask. It is the next-gen machines that will drive innovation, and a company is already making a move. How would you like if smartphones came with more than one battery, CPU and cameras with 6K resolution? If that sounds reel, think again.
Turing Robotics Industries (TRI) has announced a first-ever smartphone with everything beyond imagination. Although the expected release is slated for 2017, TRI's Turing Phone Cadenza is very real and already in the pipeline.
TRI is able to pivot efficiently and create something as extraordinary as the Turing Phone Cadenza. It is our belief that we can disrupt the status quo by bringing the Turing Phone Cadenza from the future to the present," TRI CEO and chief architect Steve Chao wrote in a mailing list newsletter (via Android Police).
What's so great about Turing Phone Cadenza that's something we haven't seen already? In a nutshell, everything. The Cadenza smartphone packs specs that no other smartphone has managed to squeeze in currently.
Firstly, it has a graphene oxide body with liquid metal frame, two Snapdragon 830 processors, 12GB (2x6GB) RAM, 512GB of internal storage and two microSD card slots to support another 512GB in case you fall short of half a terabyte. The SD830 chipset is slated for release in the first quarter of 2017.
Speaking of the design, Chao said that the Cadenza is the "perfectly designed device."
Turing Phone Cadenza features a 5.8-inch QHD display, an extraordinary 60-megapixel iMAX 6K Quad rear-facing camera with triple lens and two 20MP front snappers. From what we have seen so far, dual camera configuration in smartphones delivers great results and we can only begin to imagine how the Cadenza will deliver in the real world. The handset will not run on Android like most phones, but get powered by an unannounced Swordfish OS based likely on Sailfish.
To make sure the smartphone gets sufficient power, TRI will be packing three batteries with a total of 100wH, which is equivalent to 27,000mAh. The battery backup will be made of a 2,400mAh graphene super-capacitor battery, a 1,600mAh Li-ion battery and a hydrogen fuel cell. Finally, the Cadenza will support four nano SIM cards simultaneously, 4G bands with VoLTE, WiGig Network Support and Marshall Audio technology.
These specifications in a smartphone seems unrealistic, but in a year's time we may be gunning for more. The pricing, of course, will be a major setback for a smartphone with these specs, but this phone is clearly not meant for all.
Turing Phone Cadenza certainly shows us what's possible and leads the way for new innovations, which can be followed by giants like Apple and Samsung and bring products that will be consumer-friendly.
