Alibaba’s very own YunOS has become increasingly active these days. The number of manufacturers, which want to adopt this OS is rising day by day and device maker Newman is one of them.

Well, Newman is not widely known for its mobile devices, but it has been producing other gadgets that involve mp3 and mp4 players for quite a while in China.

The company has recently revealed that its upcoming device, which will be released on April 8th, will run Alibaba’s YunOS. As we have already reported, the device will spot some unique features, which include a finger print scanner, which is placed on the back of the device. Also, there will be the rotating wheel on the side of the smartphone.

Today, the general manager of Beijing Sino Market Research company Sun Qi claims that Newman device will support the fingerprint payment options and a fast charging feature.

What is more, it is said that it will cost 1499 Yuan, which is pretty low for the the device, which has some decent looks and a few unique features. We have to wait and see till April 8th if Newman is ready to impress the mobile world.

The Chinese manufacturer Newman, which is most likely unheard to you, has some interesting news as it has quite interesting device in its portfolio. The company just announced that they will soon launch their new device to the masses. The most interesting thing is that the device has a very innovative design of finger print scanner and the whole device. Also, the Newman device has Alibaba’s YunOS 3.0 pre-installed.

As you can see, the finger print scanner is located right below the camera sensor on the back. We have never seen this done before as the camera sensor is located at the left top corner of the device.

The smartphone comes in two colour options – white and black.

The device has a 5.5 inch Full-HD display with 5mp front and 13mp rear camera, which is accompanied by the dual tone dual LED flash. The front side looks a bit similar to the Xiaomi Mi4.

Another interesting feature, which seems to have made a comeback on this device from the early days of smartphones (or even feature phones) is the rotating wheel “flywheel” on the side of the phone. What it does is basically lets you scroll through the menus with your thumb without the need to touch the screen. It may sound a bit funny, why the manufacturer would put this outdated piece of hardware. However, Apple thinks the same way with their smartwach.

What is more, the finger print scanner is very high quality as it uses the same module as the Huawei Mate 7.

We are not yet informed about the hardware specs of this device yet as this is non-final unit. Pricing and availability is not yet disclosed either. Anyway, we think that these two design aspects are innovative and should attract some of the consumers attention, when the device is released officially to the public.

Newman has been in the market for the past few years, however lately we haven’t heard anything new from the company. In fact, the company’s last post on its official Weibo page dates back to July 2014.

Earlier today, surprisingly, Newman forwarded a post from YunOS’s weibo page. The post was about a new concept YunOS device. The image had a unique rear button just below the camera, however the post failed to explain the use of the button.

A few hours later, Newman posted a image on its Weibo page which finally revealed a new device from the company. It seems that the concept machine revealed by YunOS was in fact the new Newman Button phone which will run on YunOS.

This is not the first time we are seeing at a YunOS powered Newman device. Last year, we had seen many manufacturers adopt YunOS for their phones, including Newman. So, this particular announcement doesn’t come as a big surprise.

We still don’t know what the mysterious button below the camera does, but it could be something related to the camera feature. Or it may even be used to control sound or even for fingerprint recognition. Unfortunately, we can only speculate the features on the Newman button phone right now. But expect more information when Newman announces more details about the phone on April 8.

When Newman released the ultra-slim octa-core K18, they said that they will later release a phone with a 6-inch display screen. Now, here comes their newest octa-core phone, the K6, which looks like a bigger version of the Dawei K18. 

The back of the K6 follows a three-level design. Unlike the K18, the K6’s main camera is located on the left side of the phone. The rear cover of the white edition is champagne gold. There is also a black edition.
