ZTE Axon M has 2 screens -- And you thought flip phones were dead

2017-10-17
this is the axon em smartphone from ZTE it looks like an ordinary smartphone with a 5.2 inch display that is until you fold out the second 5.2 inch display turning it into a mini 6.8 inch square tablet while most phones are moving toward having dual rear cameras ZTE brings you a phone with dual screens the M and acts on M stands for multi mode when both displays are open you can select how the screens are arranged there's a continuous screen mode where both displays are used to show on app this seems pretty handy for gameplay watching a video reading messaging or just viewing your home screen there's definitely a little Nintendo 2ds v happenin here and that's a good thing another mode lets you open two different apps each on its own display this is all about multitasking that means you can play a video on one screen a message on the second or read an email on the left screen while reading a PDF on the right and then there's mirror mode where the exact same thing is shown on both screens the idea is the phone can be placed in a tent-like position between two people facing each other imagines to be great for two kids watching a video ZTE is working to optimize the top 200 Android apps to take advantage of both screens when not folded out the second screen folds behind the main one and turns off in this closed book position it looks like a regular smartphone albeit pretty thick one another interesting feature is it only has one camera on the whole phone the selfie camera is also the rear camera I know it sounds crazy but when you open up the camera app you're prompted to rotate the phone 180 degrees what was the back screen turned on and becomes a display for framing your shot the ZTE axon 10 is completely different from any flagship phone available and its dual screens offer up a lot of possibilities for a truly unique smartphone experience it will be available starting November 17th however pricing has not been announced
