This is the World's First Smartphone with a Built-In Virtual Reality Camera

You may have heard that Chinese technology companies are also doing amazing things. You will have heard correctly. This alien looking smartphone is actually the world's first mobile phone with a built in Virtual Reality capable camera. Chinese high-tech firm Protruly showcased their Darling VR Smartphone at the China Hi-Tech Fair in Shenzhen on Thursday. Using a special algorithm, the Darling VR smartphone can take 360 degree panorama videos and photos. The Darling VR smartphone features the world's first 360-degree live virtual reality streaming camera for smartphones. Protruly's VR smartphone combines a 5.5" FHD retina display with 1080p resolution, powered by a Deca Core CPU running at 2.5GHz speed, with a powerful Mali-T880 GPU graphic processor. The standard version comes with a price tag of $600, but Protruly is also selling a special, limited edition diamond and gold-encrusted version, costing $1,300. More than 3,000 exhibitors from around the world are exhibiting their latest products at the 2016 edition of the CHTF, with around 500,000 visitors expected. The exhibition will run until November 21.
