The startup Abxylute company claims it has good grips and is lightweight at 410 grams w/ 250 x 115 x 30mm measurements.

It goes with a 7-inch wide IPS LCD screen with a resolution of 1080p and a standard 60Hz refresh rate.

The device's design

Inside, it uses a MediaTek Genio 350 (MT8385) quad-core processor with Mali-G52 GPU. The chipset has 4 ARM Cortex-A53 CPUs with 2GHz clock speed.

Moving forward, the device has 4GB LPDDR4 RAM, 64GB expandable memory, and a 5,000mAh battery.

Most details are still limited including the other features, connectivity, and the Android version it will use.
