Arrows A 301F
Japanese telecommunications company Softbank has just held its 2013 Winter – 2014 Spring press conference where a number of new mobile devices were announced for its network. One of those turns out to be possibly the fastest charging smartphone ever released.
The phone in question comes from Fujitsu, and carries the nameArrows A 301F. It’s part of a larger Arrows range of smartphones, but this particular model uses a 2.2GHz Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB RAM, 64GB on-board storage, a 1080p 5-inch touchscreen display, 13 megapixel camera, Android 4.2, and 2,600mAh battery.
Fully charged that battery is expected to offer three days of use. However, Softbank also focused in on a 10 minute charge feature of the handset. Apparently, if you let the 301F charge for 10 minutes, you’ll get a day of battery life in return.
That’s very impressive, but no details were given as to exactly how Fujitsu has achieved such a feat. It seems likely Fujitsu hasQualcomm to thank, however. As the 301F uses a Snapdragon 800 processor, it can take advantage of Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 2.0 feature.
Qualcomm introduced v2.0 of Quick Charge back in February, and claimed it could cut charging times by as much as 75 percent when using a special AC adapter. Combine quick charging with only needing to get past 33 percent battery capacity for a day of use, and you can see how that 10 minute claim might be made.
Charging times of around 10 minutes are highly desirable, and if the 301F really does achieve that consistently, I can see it becoming a marketing opportunity for many new smartphones carrying compatible Snapdragon processors. And as a consumer, I won’t be complaining if such a feature is available to me.
1. Key Features (planned)
- Day with a charge of 10 minutes ※ 1 , and three days on a full charge ※ 2battery has to be able to use
- Support for ultra-fast charging that can be used day in charge of 10 minutes.Even forget the charge, it is safe one day just to charge a short time before going out. Also, I realized the battery has three days on a full charge. In addition, in order to perform the automatic power saving which is optimized for usage by the "Human-centric engine ®", and can be used for a long time without worrying about running out of battery.
- It is equipped with a 13.1 million pixel camera, and night backlight also captured beautifully in a variety of functions
- It is equipped with a high-resolution camera of number 13.1 million effective pixels in the main camera. The "perfect tuning" feature, so do the best color correction to match the environment, and the camera does the rest a bright picture in vivid colors. In addition to automatic adjustment in accordance with the distance to the subject brightness of the flash by "intelligent flash" function, in order to focus the camera on the subject quickly and accurately by detecting the posture when he set up the camera in the "Quick Focus" function further It is possible to leave the beautiful photos in any scene.
- It is equipped with Fujitsu's own "smart fingerprint sensor ®". "Hybrid 4G LTE" further ※ 3 Supports, specs of enhancement in the 2.2GHz quad-core CPU with
- I realize the robust security of Fujitsu unique "smart fingerprint sensor ®". You can easily switch between a long press of the fingerprint sensor to hide and pictures phone book you also specify "Privacy Mode ®". In addition, in response that can be connected to the network of both high-speed and "SoftBank 4G LTE" and "SoftBank 4G" and "Hybrid 4G LTE", maximum downlink 110Mbps ※ 4capable of high-speed communication. In the CPU, and quad-core with 2.2GHz CPU with a high-speed processing performance the "MSM8974", high-quality movies also can watch smoothly. The board is equipped with a ROM of 64GB, videos of your favorite images and also can save many.
- body also scratch resistant design yet comfortably so as to use it, in the "diamond tough coat"
- Because it is designed with a smooth form, I am familiar in hand, it is easy to fit to the pocket, you can use comfortably. In addition, it can be hard to hurt because it painted the body resistant to friction 3.5 times the normal paint, using the diamond particles in the "diamond tough coat", can be kept longer a clean state just bought. In addition, the pre-installed sound source by Mr. Nakamura Koji sound artist, and has realized the sound pleasant to the sound effects. In addition, we plan to hard case from "SoftBank SELECTION", can be charged on a desk holder included even putting it will be released.
