Coolpad Launches Cool X Wide Budget Android Phone with 16:10 Widescreen Display
Coolpad has introduced the Cool X Wide, a budget-friendly Android smartphone featuring an unconventional 16:10 aspect ratio. Designed to mimic the screen real estate of premium foldable devices like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series and the rumored iPhone Duo without the high costs or mechanical complexities, the device offers a wider form factor for media consumption. The handset is positioned in the entry-level market, priced starting at approximately $150 (999 CNY) via JD.com. It is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 processor and includes 8GB of RAM as standard, though higher configurations are available. While it offers an expansive display experience, the device is limited to 4G connectivity due to its chipset.
