Spy Photos: Hike Pandora and Phantom get curved glass display and dual-core chips


Curved displays on phone are quite common with larger brand phones, but are still a novelty for Chinese manufacturers with the Hike Pandora and Phantom phones being the first to offer the feature!

Hike are a new brand to Gizchina, but the company has already made a good first impression with its Pandora and Phantom Android phones!

From the leaked photos we can see that the Phantom T1 comes with a 4,7 inch HD 1280 x 720 display and we have learned the phone will be powered by a dual-core 1.2Ghz MT6577 CPU with 1GB RAM. A 5 mega-pixel rear camera seems like a cost cutting measure to allow for the curved screen and it’s a shame the Phantom gets Android ICS instead of JB.

The Hike Pandora get’s a larger 5.3 inch 960 x 540 display and the same hardware as the Phantom but with the addition of a 2250mAh battery.

Both phones get 16GB of built-in memory with no room for an SD card, which will be a deal breaker for some buyers. Both phones run Android 4.0 with Hike’s own HUI, which features a number of gesture based controls and ‘Hi image’ photo enhancement.

No details on pricing or availability, but don’t expect to wait to long until they hit the market.

    If the price is good, this will be a hit. Let’s just hope it will be offered by online shops, for us international buyers.

    So what’s the difference between curved screens and I’m assuming flat screens?
