TP-Link announced on Wednesday their latest entry to the Neffos smartphone brand. The new Neffos X9 boasts an advanced dual-camera system around the back and a large Full-View Display on the front. It incorporates them into a polycarbonate body with a fine metallic look and feel. It is priced at $228.
Cameras Made for Moments
The Neffos X9 is equipped with 13 and 5 megapixel rear cameras that work together to produce great portrait-style photos with a sharp subject and blurred background, effectively mimicking what a professional camera is capable of.
Phase-detection auto-focus leads to faster and more accurate focusing, while the f/2.0 aperture lens allows for greater depth of field, resulting in a more dramatic effect.
The 8-megapixel camera on the front ensures crisp details and realistic colors and features a wider field of view for taking group selfies. It comes integrated with image-enhancement algorithms.
There’s also AI Beautify mode, which enables a live preview of the many beautification choices at the camera’s disposal. By professionally enhancing facial features and smoothening skin, the X9 helps create the most refined yet most natural-looking selfie.
Big and Intelligent Full-View Display
Sporting a massive 5.99-inch Full-View touch display, the Neffos X9 sets the standard for immersive and expansive viewing and gaming experiences in its price range. It runs at HD+ resolution with an aspect ratio of 18:9. It’s also manufactured using in-cell technology and engineered to deliver a sharper and more vivid picture.
At 1.9mm, the bezels surrounding the Full-View Display are about as thin as they get, while the 86.4 percent screen-to-body ratio maximizes the panel coverage and allows the bigger display to fit onto the device without much impact to its size.
For night owls, switching to the X9’s Night Display mode will intelligently dim the screen’s brightness as lighting conditions change, for an easier-on-the-eye viewing experience at night. Eye Protection mode, meanwhile, further reduces eye strain by minimizing blue-light emission by up to 89 percent. Users can set a time to automatically activate the function for all-day eye care.
Convenient and Safe to Use
Designed with user comfort and convenience in mind, the Neffos X9 has a fingerprint sensor on the back for unlocking the phone quickly.
Face Unlock is also onboard with the latest AI technology incorporated into the feature. It verifies the user’s identity by scanning over 100 different facial details to pixel-level accuracy.
The X9 is also powered by Android 8.1 Oreo, which brings a bunch of new changes to the platform, not the least of which are security updates that fix vulnerabilities that could be exploited.
Impressively Fast and Efficient
The Neffos X9 has an octa-core processor, complemented by dual-core Mali-T860 graphics and 3GB of RAM. The high-end processor integrated with a powerful GPU and plenty of memory caters to butter-smooth navigation and consistently fluid gaming experiences on the phone.
Pricing and Availability
The Neffos X9, available in Metallic Black and Silver will retail at a local retail price of $228 and is now available at leading retailers such as Challenger, Best Denki, Sprintcass Stores and Neffos authorized retailers island-wide.
