Transparent smartphone
Transparent smartphones are coming to the market very soon. As a result, smartphone users will get some additional benefits. Touchskin will be connected on both the front and back sides of this type of phone. And with the facility of using two apps at the same time, new surprises can be created.
It is known that Docomo has developed a transparent phone in collaboration with Fujitsu. Masashi Tagaya, a senior member of the company's (Decomo) Advanced Technology Group, has detailed the prototype of this new smartphone in a YouTube video.
Multiple apps can be run simultaneously using the front and rear touch panels of this smartphone. But there is also a problem with this type of smartphone. And that is its display. Its display is only 2.4 inches which is smaller than any other smartphone display. However, it is known that the display of the main phone will be as big as the display of other smartphones in the market. And because it is transparent and has the advantage of using the front and back touch panels at the same time, many users can use many apps at the same time.
