The Israeli launchup Sirin Labs today officially announced its super high-end Android smartphone at an event in London.
Η Sirin Labs 2013 was founded by Kazakh businessman Kenges Rakishev, Israeli businessman Moshe Hogeg and former McKinsey advisor, Mr. Tal Cohen.
Their mission?
Create the Rolls-Royce of smartphones, an advanced device that combines "the most secure privacy settings, works faster than any other phone, and is made with the finest materials from around the world"
Η company είχε αρχική χρηματοδότηση 25 εκατομμύρια δολάρια πριν από ένα-two years, followed by $72 million last month.
Το Solarin υπόσχεται “την πιο προηγμένη τεχνολογία προστασίας της ιδιωτικής ζωής, που είναι διαθέσιμη προς το παρόν” και συνεργάστηκε με τον KoolSpan για να ενσωματώσει κρυπτογράφηση AES chip-to-chip 256-bit, παρόμοια με την κρυπτογράφηση που uses the military to protect communications. It is activated by a safety switch on the back of the phone.
"Cyber-attacks are endemic around the world," said Tal Cohen, CEO and co-founder of Sirin Labs.
"An attack can seriously damage a company's reputation and economy. "Solarin is a pioneer in non-compromising privacy measures and provides customers with the confidence and reassurance they will have to deal with critical information."
Solarin uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, and supports 24 LTE bands. It promises "much higher" Wi-Fi connectivity than conventional cell phones. It also has a 23.8-megapixel rear camera and its screen is 5.5 ”IPS LED with 2K resolution.
"Every choice in design and hardware was made based on performance and functionality," said Fredrik Öijer, Sirin Labs VP of Products. "The product we have today unites the best on the world stage."
It is worth noting that the device is not a mass-production and purchasing device since each one costs 13.800 dollars. The first parts to be released will be at Mayfair (34 Bruton Place), London from 1 June and at Harrods, Knightsbridge from June 30.
