Elephone C8 18:9 Display Aspect Ratio Phone Revealed (vs iPhone 7 Plus)


Elephone C8

As we’ve seen in the past weeks, pretty much every Chinese phone maker have released their take on the 18:9 display aspect ratio phones which became popular with the launch of the LG G6 and Samsung S8. Apparently also Elephone is jumping on the bandwagon and just released a photo of what’s namely called Elephone C8, side by side with an iPhone 7 Plus; let’s check it out!

So, there we go, another 18:9 display aspect ratio phone is coming. To give Elephone some credit, at least they seem to be taking inspiration from the LG G6 more than the Samsung S8, which is what everybody else has been doing.

Elephone say the C8 will be featuring a big 5.7-inch display, in the photo above you can see it compared to a 5.5-inch iPhone 7 Plus which still has an overall bigger footprint. The Elephone C8 appears to be narrower and thus probably easier to hold in hands.

We still aren’t aware of any other details, Elephone only claims the smartphone will be affordable and sport an interesting hardware configuration. We’ll know if that’s true only when they release the info though.

    Sometimes I think they should introduce devices slowly, not back to back in every month. This creates pressure both on customers as well as the company.

    Good to see that Elephone is compatible enough to quickly follow the trend in making triple bezel less devices and 18:9 ration devices.

    Stunning! The technology is evolving and here is the proof! The less than 6months old iPhone 7+ is now being out dated ??

      That 6 months old iPhone 7 still has the better chipset, camera, display, flash memory, build, software and pretty much everything else. Haha. Such a stupid definition of technology you have just because it’s 18:9.

      Are you guys still collecting points from elejob? One would think you would have gotten a real honest job by now but I guess not. haha.
