A new member of the popular affordable
UMIDIGI A7 series, the UMIDIGI A7S is apparently coming soon. UMIDIGI’s Twitter
posted some render images and a teaser for it, so we can have some first ideas.
UMIDIGI A7S seems to be the first entry-level phone to feature a non-contact
infrared thermometer sensor. And the anti-fingerprint design is also very
different from the previous UMIDIGI products.
According to the poster, we can see that
UMIDIGI A7S can measure someone’s temperature without even touching the person.
This is thanks to the infrared thermometer sensor, but we are not sure yet if
it can also measure the temperature of objects. Infrared thermometers on
smartphones is not a completely new thing, but it is actually worthy of attention
right now with all the Covid-19 craziness. And such feature is very rare on the
entry-level phones.
From the render image we can see, that A7S has a quad camera system. Three of
them are used for photography and the remaining one is for the thermometer. The
phone has a 3D unibody design and looks pretty good too. And the new
anti-fingerprint texture, similar to Redmi 9A, is certainly a very good
addition. It will also have an independent button on the left side, its
function probably reserved for the thermometer. Specs are still clouded in
mystery, but we can clearly see the waterdrop notch display at least.
UMIDIGI A7S is expected to go official at
the start of September and its full
specs will be unveiled by then. Apart from that, UMIDIGI is giving away 10
units of their new rugged camera phone BISON to thank users for their
support.
