How cool is that this spherical telephone from dTOOR?

The era of non-rectangular and oddly shaped phones seems to be over. Most, if not all, of the phones launched today are rectangular in shape. A company cannot do much with the shape of its smartphones. But there is one manufacturer who is questioning the status quo. A brand called dTOOR is launching The Cyrcle Phone 4G LTE (yes, it has “The” in its name), a circular smartphone. It doesn’t compromise on the user interface as it runs on Android 10.

While phone manufacturers are getting rid of the headphone jack these days, dTOOR is adding two of them to its latest offering. In addition, it also supports two SIM card slots. The Cyrcle Phone not only has two headphone jacks, but also two USB ports: a USB Type-C 3.0 and a USB Micro B 2.0. It comes with recyclable and biodegradable housing components. As a result, it is not only user-friendly but also environmentally friendly. The Cyrcle Phone 4G LTE with Android 10 is currently only available in advance sales.

The device has an IPS LCD display and a capacitive touchscreen of 3.45 inches. Because the phone is circular, the screen size is measured in diameter rather than diagonally. It comes with a modest resolution of 800 x 800 pixels. The company doesn’t reveal which processor powers its circular phone. The specs page only states that the device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset. In addition to dual SIM connectivity, you also get a microSD card slot.

The Cyrcle Phone offers 3 GB of LPDDR3 RAM and 32 GB of eMMC storage. On the back there is a 13 MP camera that can record 4208 x 3120 videos at 30 fps. You also get a 13 MP selfie shooter with the same configuration. As for the sensors, it has support for an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and a temperature sensor. It contains a replaceable 2,000 mAh battery and weighs 147 grams.

The Cycle Phone retails for $ 999. However, you can wholesale or pre-purchase it for $ 699.
