Essential, a smartphone company headed by Android co-founder Andy Rubin, confirmed that the company has been working on a device called Project GEM.
Images of the Project GEM smartphone were posted on the company’s official Twitter account. The upcoming device from Essential has a tall and narrow form factor, rather different from the smartphones in the market today. It’s reminiscent of a television remote control, except that it’s a full touch panel.
On the rear, the GEM device has a rather large protruding camera on the upper part, while what seems to be a fingerprint scanner is situated below it. The tweet also shows the smartphone in the colors of red, green, blue and yellow.
Andy Rubin also posted a few more details of the Project GEM device on his personal Twitter account. In one tweet, Andy Rubin stated that the GEM has a colorshift material to it. The video shows off how the device changes from one color to another, depending on the angle.
