Introduced the first smartphone with a monolithic carbon fiber body Carbon 1 MK II

Yesterday, the world’s first smartphone with a monolithic carbon fiber body, called the Carbon 1 MK II, was unveiled. The device does not have the usual metal frame, all components are attached to the carbon fiber itself. This made the smartphone very light and thin (125 g and 6.3 mm).

The highlight is the patented HyRECM technology, which has been in development for over four years. This technology has created a material that combines high-quality carbon fibers with a composite material that allows radio waves to pass through. If in 2017 it took 3 hours to create such a corpus, now the process takes only 30 minutes. However, the production still requires a person who manually cuts the material and controls the molding process.

The Carbon 1 MK II has a 6-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080 x 2160 pixels (18: 9), which is protected by Victus Gorilla Glass. The phone will launch with Android 10, but update 11 will launch in the second quarter. Carbon Mobile promises 2 years of software updates and monthly security patches.
