The YotaPhone 2 began its journey to the
U.S. last week, but the Russian company is already planning its future
smartphones. YotaPhone revealed plans for a YotaPhone 3 and a YotaPhone 2c in
upcoming future.
The
YotaPhone 3 will offer better specs, including a faster processor (likely from
Qualcomm) a sharper display and a better E Ink screen in back. You can also
expect more RAM (up from 2GB on the YotaPhone 2), a more powerful camera, and a
thinner design overall. When the YotaPhone 3 actually launches may depend on
its predecessor’s success, though it looks like the current Yota is already a hit in the U.S.
Yota
also confirmed plans for a cheaper YotaPhone 2c, which is said to be in the
works. It may even launch this year. Again, it all depends on how well the
current model sells. So YotaPhone 2c is in the work, if people want it.
Rumors
of a YotaPhone 3 and YotaPhone 2c surfaced earlier this year when the company’s
plans for a U.S. launch first
leaked out. At the time, these devices were just rumors with no evidence
to back them up. Now we know for a fact that Yota is working on two new
handsets: a flagship follow-up and a budget-friendly option. It’s possible
those plans could change depending on how the YotaPhone 2 is received, but it
seems safe to assume that new models are on the way.
