Infrared Thermometer in a Smartphone

OEMs of smartphones are reinventing themselves to stay afloat in the tough market. A relatively new Chinese player called UMIDIGI has announced a new smartphone called UMIDIGI A9, that comes with an infrared thermometer sensor! This handset is a stripped-down variant of UMIDIGI A9 Pro.

Yet, it has a significant feature that makes it stand out among its competitors. It sports a 6.53โ€ณ HD+ display with 720ร—1600p resolution and a dot-drop notch design. It runs on MediaTekโ€™s Helio G25 processor, based on a 12nm process, and has 2.0GHz as the peak clocking speed. In terms of storage, it has 3GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 64GB of onboard storage.

In imaging, it has a triple-rear setup lead by a 13MP primary lens, followed by an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP depth lens. Upfront, thereโ€™s a single 8MP end as the front camera. A rear-mounted fingerprint sensor has all the required connectivities and comes with a 5150mAh battery that supports 10W fast charging support.

It has a dedicated shortcut button at the left, which takes to the thermometer for checking the temperature of a body. This could be essential during the pandemic weโ€™re living in. It works by placing the sensor inches closer to the body for a few seconds to read the temperature.

While a similar sensor is available in the Huaweiโ€™s Mate 40 RS Porsche Design edition, UMIDIGI A9 is cheaper than the Huaweiโ€™s handset and runs on Android 11 OS, making it special. Itโ€™s going on sale globally starting January 1st, 2021, for $99.99.
