Have you noticed an odd bulge in people’s shorts around Accra?
It’s likely because, like many of my friends, they’ve recently acquired a new phone. But it’s not the iPhone 6 Plus, and it’s not the Samsung Galaxy S6.
I like it. It’s functional and has a certain charm to it.
They’re both “fake”, but who cares? It’s very obvious and the power-bank thing is very clever.
Clever, but not exactly original:

This is the perfect companion gift for smart watch fans: No more worrying that the watch will die while the power is out!
I think this idea is brilliant. And I completely agree with this conclusion from the article:
And the price doesn’t hurt, either.
Makes me think of the dual battery phone that was reported on recently.
Basically i had one big battery that could be swapped out, and one smaller that was fixed in place.
This then allows for hot swapping of the larger battery.
There was also a video a few years back of a two battery 7″ tablet, again built so that one of the batteries could be swapped while the other provided the needed power. The batteries in question seemed to be phone batteries.
The shape from the front makes me think of a rugged Nokia. Maybe a 5210.
Man, I love this form factor.
I hate modern extremes and pretty much tired of buttonless bricks, made by Applesung and other monkeys.
Somebody has to make a cheaper Android phone with a reasonable number of keys. Maybe even full QWERTY, but not like in Blackberries, rather a folded one.
