If the name Gionee rings any bells, that’s because it’s the Chinese handset maker behind the ultra-thin Elife S5.1 and S5.5, which, at the time of their announcements, set world records for thinnest smartphone. However, with the W900, Gionee quit its ambitions for the world’s thinnest smartphone and now has its eyes set on the world’s first smartphone with two 1080p displays.

The W900 packs internal and external displays, both measuring 4 inches on the diagonal with 1920 x 1080 resolutions. This adds up to a pretty intense pixel density of 550ppi. Designed much like Samsung’s Android flip phones, the W900 is powered by a quad-core 1.5GHz processor that is coupled with 2GB of RAM. You’l find a 13-megapixel camera on the back, while selfies can be taken with the 5-megapixel front-facing camera. A 2050mAh battery should keep the handset powered all day.

Unfortunately, much like the Samsung Android flip phones, the W900 is unlikely to land on U.S. shores anytime soon. Still, it’s fun to look at, isn’t it?

iPhone SE 4: news, rumored price, release date, and more
The Apple iPhone SE (2022) and Apple iPhone SE (2020) together.

While the spotlight always seems to be on Apple’s mainline iPhones, the iPhone SE is a great pick for those who are on a budget. If you want an iPhone that doesn't break the bank, the SE is the way to go.

The original iPhone SE came out in 2016, and then Apple revamped it in 2020 and 2022 by giving it some more modern hardware. The iPhone SE tends to get updated every two or so years rather than annually like the traditional iPhone. This means  that we should see a new iPhone SE 4 this year, but it’s not so cut-and-dried with this particular model.
