When it comes to smartphone manufacturers you would probably not think about any of Russian-based tech companies. However, it seems that one of them is worth your attention – Yota Devices. The manufacturer managed to surprise a lot with the first dual-screen smartphone in the world. After some time, the company made a significant upgrade in terms of design and performance, and released the Yoataphone 2.

Right now the Russian seem confident about their product and enter such a hectic Chinese smartphone market.

As far as specs go, the Yotaphone 2 has a 5-inch 1080p display on the front and back  4.7 inches 960 × 540 resolution electronic ink panel on the back. Moreover, it has a Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage (non-expandable). Also, there is an 8MP/2MP camera combo on the back and the front, respectively. Android 4.4 Kitkat is running the show and the device is powered by 2500mAh non-removable battery. 

The Yotaphone 2 will cost 4888 Yuan ($788) in China, which sounds really steep. However, the device should find some buyers as it is the only released device with LCD and E-ink displays in the world (Siswoo Darkmoon is not released yet).

What do you think, is the Yotaphone 2 worth this high price tag? Does the second e-ink display have advantage over regular devices? Let us know.

YotaPhone 2 is a phone with dual screen. It has a normal display on front and an e-ink display on the back. The phone is made by Yota, a Russian company  and it has been successful in many countries so far. Finally the Yotaphone 2 will be releasing in China, as the phone just passed TENAA.

The Yotaphone 2 is equipped with a Snapdragon 800 processor, with 5 inches 1080p display (back e-ink screen is 4.7 inches), built-in 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage space body. It comes with a 2.0 megapixel front camera and a 13MegaPixel rear camera and runs on Android 4.4 system.

Currently we have no idea about its cost but we don’t think Yota will try to compete with the prices of the existing Chinese OEMs like Xiaomi.
