DOCOMO has announced the Sharp LYNX 3D SH-03C, a smartphone with Android 2.1 and a 3D touchscreen, among its new models for winter 2010 and spring 2011.
This model has a 3.8-inch 3D LCD with a vertically zoned parallax barrier, enabling naked-eye 3D viewing.
“The LYNX 3D comes with photo, video, and game applications, including a Hatsune Miku promotional video. So you can enjoy a variety of apps and content as soon as you purchase the LYNX 3D. In addition, you can convert your own photos to 3D, and watch mobile TV in 3D as well.”
The LYNX 3D converts 2D pictures to 3D by software processing. It can switch between 2D and 3D display with one touch. From now on, 3D content for the LYNX 3D will also be available from DOCOMO Market, which provides application downloads for smartphones.
“The LYNX 3D also supports mobile wallet and TV services. In other words, this model offers capabilities that weren’t available in previous smartphones. So we hope that even people who were hesitating to move up from a regular i-mode phone to a smartphone will find this model easy and convenient to use.”
The LYNX 3D will be released in December in three colors: Blue, White and Black, with an upgrade to Android 2.2 planned for Spring 2011.
