Fujitsu Arrows Alpha2 smartphone: durable IP69 housing and 144Hz screen

The Japanese brand Fujitsu, now known as Fujitsu Connected Technologies Limited (FCNT) and part of the Lenovo group, has just introduced its new smartphone, the Arrows Alpha2.

Fujitsu Arrows Alpha2 is a mid-range smartphone with an exceptionally solid build. The smartphone can withstand drops from a height of 1.8 meters, is MIL-STD-810H certified, and is IP69 water and dust resistant. The casing, with a metal frame, is covered on both sides with Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Besides the highly durable casing, the rest of the specifications are fairly standard. The model is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Extreme processor, supported by 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 256 or 512 GB of flash memory, which can be expanded with a microSD card.

The smartphone is quite compact, with a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1200x2670 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate, and brightness up to 3000 nits. Despite its compact size, it houses a 5370 mAh battery with 90-watt charging, but there's no room for cameras. There are only two on the back: the main (f/1.88) and a wide-angle (f/2.05), both of which are 50 megapixels. The selfie camera (f/2.0) is also 50 megapixels, and both can record in 4K. A heart rate monitor sits next to the cameras, further distinguishing this smartphone. The smartphone measures 155x72x8.6 mm and weighs 187 g. Four colour options are available, but pricing is not yet available.
