Sirin Labs introduces its first cryptocurrency phone.
Sirin Labs, the company most famous for their $14,000 Solarin privacy phone, is now back for more and will soon launch of their Finney device, one of the only handful of cryptocurrency-related smartphones that are currently still in development.
Named after Bitcoin, pioneer Hal Finney, it’s been described as a “state of the art mobile device” for the blockchain era. Having a passing resemblance to its predecessor, the Solarin Privacy phone, this phone packs amazing hardware besides one nifty feature, a Slider. Reminiscent of an old Nokia phone with a slider, the phone’s backplate slides up. But anyone without a doubt would be able to tell that the Finney is developed by the same company that made the Solarin privacy phone.
Pulling out the back phone is where you’ll find a secondary display, called the Safe Screen, which can and should only be used for crypto transactions. The company says that this feature runs on a dedicated firmware that lets users check where their coinage is being sent before they initiate the payment. The nifty slider activates the cold storage wallet that is designed to hold a significant number of different cryptocurrencies, from Bitcoin to Ethereum and etc.
The devices run on a forked version of Android, pretty much like the Solarin, but the company promises it has been made significantly more secure as it ought to be. Since this phone offers access to a specific blockchain-related app store. The handset runs with flagship specifications, a Snapdragon 845 and a 6GB RAM, which is definitely good enough for the kind of processes and transactions being done on the device.
Another feature that this phone offers is called “Token Conversion Service (TCS),” that basically acts as a form of an automatic broker, as a way to overcome the multiple cryptocurrencies being launched on a regular basis. More features will certainly be added to this device as it is continuously being developed, we’re not sure how this device will be able to handle long transaction waiting times, but it certainly is something like a start.
This device comes out in the last quarter of 2018, hopefully before the end of November.
