YotaPhone 2 will arrive in the USA through Indiegogo

Russian smartphone YotaPhone 2 with two screens will soon begin to be sold in the United States. This was announced by a representative of Yota Devices at the World Mobile Congress in Barcelona. An extravagant gadget may well find its buyer, despite the high price in the region of $ 600.

The most interesting thing is that sales are planned to be organized on the Indiegogo crowdfunding site this spring.

For the first buyers, there may be discounts or some gifts. Indiegogo has traditionally held such events. For example, a cover may be issued for a purchase load.

In general, Russian startups do not yet often collect money through crowdfunding sites. The last such high-profile project was the semi-fantastic gadget Healbe GoBefor automatic measurement of consumed calories. Despite the suspicions of fraud , the Russian "inventors" managed to raise more than a million dollars.

Let's hope that the fundraising Yota Devices will be no less successful. Moreover, YotaPhone 2 is a real product.

After crowdfunding, Yota Devices intends to begin supplying smartphones to retail chains such as Best Buy.

By the time sales in the United States begin, they will install the Android 5.0 operating system (Lollipop) on the smartphone and implement support for the second version of the API for third-party applications with electronic ink screen support.

By the end of summer, it is planned to release a white version of the smartphone.
