A new smartphone design will be launching later this
month via Indiegogo called the Shell, designed to be worn as a smartwatch that
transforms into a smartphone when required, supporting the latest 4G LTE
connectivity. Shell has been created to combine the best features of a
smartwatch and smartphone into one unique wearable device that can be worn on
your wrist and simply removed to be used as a smartphone to take and make
calls.
Equipped with a mini generator module the Shell
smartwatch can be powered by energy generated by your hands enabling you to
make emergency calls even if your battery is low. Shell also includes a 360
degree rotating camera and unique flip out microphone and earpiece which also
incorporate the smartphone’s antenna.
The development company behind Shell has also
created a variety of different custom adapters allowing you to use your
existing smartwatch with the company’s smartphone technology removing the need
to dispose of the Apple Watch, Samsung Gear or Android smartwatch you may
already own.
Shell will be launching its Indiegogo crowdfunding
campaign at the end of this month and pledges will be available from January
30th, 2018 onwards, priced at around US$ 250 for early-bird backers. At the
current time no details on availability have been released by Shell’s
development team but as soon as more information comes to light we will keep
you up-to-date as always.
