The biggest highlight of the Astro Slide mobile phone is that it has a full-size physical keyboard that can be stored sideways. Unlike the BlackBerry, it is equipped with a membrane keyboard used by regular PCs, which can ensure a certain operating feel and can satisfy users' office anytime, anywhere demand.

It is understood that Astro Slide uses a 6.39-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2340x1080, a built-in 4000mAh battery, and a weight of 300 grams. The sliding keyboard is stored by a hinge device. When you need to use the keyboard, you only need to slide the machine sideways. You can lift the screen to use.

It is worth noting that the core configuration of Astro Slide is not consistent with the previous promise. The processor is changed from the original MediaTek Dimensity 1000 to Dimensity 800, but the memory has been improved, from the original 6GB to 8GB.

In addition, when the official announcement of the Astro Slide mobile phone previously revealed that it is equipped with the Android 10 operating system, as time goes by, the Android system has now launched a new major version update, and Astro Slide will also be upgraded to the latest Android 11 system.

At the same time, the official also said that the machine will be launched later this year with different versions of systems such as Debian Linux and UBports (Ubuntu Touch).

At present, Astro Slide is still accepting crowdfunding, the price is 664 US dollars, interested friends can go to Indiegogo for more information.
