CECT CK898

With so many interesting phones coming from China lately, we’ll soon have to open a new category for them. In the meantime, check out the CECT’s latest model called CK898. This interesting slider device also packs a camera that can be twisted around the top part of the phone for taking photos. Previously we saw the similar mechanism implemented in Nokia 3250 and 5700 handsets, but this is the first time a Chinese manufacturer goes for that kind of a form factor — to be fair I’m not aware ANY other handset maker beside Nokia is using this kind of design for any of their devices.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any information about the CK898′s specs, except that it is made of aluminium with a brushed metal appearance. Few more photos after the jump…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
