Cherry Mobile Taiji goes official, features an E-ink secondary display

One of the listed phone from Cherry Mobile’s new brochure is an interesting smartphone that features an E-Ink screen but it won’t be cheap.

The Cherry Mobile Taiji sports a 5.2-inch Full HD display and another 4.7-inch E-ink screen on its back. It would be the first smartphone to be released by a local company that features such. Inside it is a 1.7GHz octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, 32GB internal storage plus a 13MP rear and 8MP front camera. Unfortunately, it’ll run Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box.
