Kodak promised that it will reveal its newest device at CES this year, and they didnt fail: Along with the Bullitt Group, they created the Android-powered, camera-centric Instamatic 5.
Aimed for the photography-loving consumers who appreciate the Kodak brand and heritage, the Instamatic 5 is powered by Android 4.4 KitKat which will be upgraded to 5.0 Lollipop in the future.
While it has its own Google Play Store, Kodak will develop a dedicated app store for hand-picked apps, and a 13-megapixel camera with unique imaging software that lets users quickly edit photographs and a tap away to either display them on their device, send to their social media networks, or directly print using a customized app to home printers.
Kodak Instamatic 5 key specs:
5-inch HD Display, 1280×720, 294ppi
1.7GHz MediaTek MT6592 Octa-core processor
1GB RAM
8GB Internal Storage
Expandable up to 32GB via microSD
13-megapixel rear camera
5-megapixel front camera
3G, EDGE
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Android 4.4 KitKat (upgradeable to 5.0 Lollipop)
2150mAh battery
The Kodak Instamatic 5 will be available in black and white colors and will be available globally, starting in Europe next month, then in the US for $249 or roughly Php11,200.
I’m interested with the quality of photos this can have. If kodak can’t have a very good photo quality at par or even better than high-end devices, then theres no purpose in buying this.
Wrong move ang Kodak sa specs against price dahil kakainin sila ng Asus at Chinese phones. Baka magaya sila sa Polaroid na nilalangaw ang gadgets sa mga mall.
for all the kodak lovers out there, finally something to add to your antique collection :)
