Hisense A7 5G, World’s First 5G Smartphone with Black and White E-Ink Screen Released

As promised today Hisense company released A7 5G – the world’s first smartphone with an e-ink display and support for 5G networks.

The novelty comes with a 6.7-inch monochrome E-ink screen with a pixel density of 300 ppi. The hardware platform is UNISOC Tiger T7510, which works in combination with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of permanent memory. An important feature of the smartphone is the presence of a good DAC (AK4377AECB) with support for Hi-Res Audio, which, together with a 3.5 mm jack, promises good sound to users.

A single camera module with LED flash is installed on the back of the smartphone. There is also a fingerprint scanner. There is also a front camera with support for face unlock. Powered by a device running Android 10.

Last but not least, the Hisense A7 5G features a 4,770mAh battery with 18W fast charging support. Unfortunately, the manufacturer did not say how long the phone can work autonomously, but given that the screen – the main consumer of the charge – is monochrome, the device should significantly outperform its LCD counterparts.

Now for the bad news. First, despite the promises of a global launch, we are talking only about sales in China (which is not so scary in the modern world: whoever seeks will always find). Secondly, the novelty costs $ 306, which may well scare off buyers who are ready to experiment.
