Elephone has added little style to their collection with the launch of the thin flagship named as Elephone S2 with dual glass design. We are here today to give you detailed view of the Elephone S2 Specifications.

Display

The Elephone S2 is quite different to the Elephone S2 Plus in size and a new stylish, slim and elegant design. The Elephone S2 is fitted with a 5.0 inch display with dual FHD screen technology. The front is covered with Gorilla Glass display which is scratch proof and Dust-proof which protects your phone effectively in case of accidents. It has an image resolution of 720×1080 pixels HD.

Design

It shows a dual glass design with interesting pattern on the rear and appears to be an alloy chassis visible on all four edges, and features a fingerprint scanner which seems to be one of the feature which grasp the attention of audience. The fingerprint scanner enhances and provides more security than the normal phone as it can be only accessed by the user itself.

It features a 2.5D arched surface glass display on the front. The 2.5D arched surface seen on this device is a new craft design, screen surface covered with a graceful curved glass, and the use seamless design, cause the screen to look like glass surface and makes it look more three-dimensional.

Seen at the back is a micro USB and a dual LED flash. The design is very much similar to the latest flagships Nubia Z9 and upcoming Vivo X5Pro models.

Hardware & Software

The device runs the latest Android 5.1 Lollipop. It packs a 2GB of RAM which makes it more powerful and fast than any other phones in this range. The 16GB on board ROM makes plenty of space to download and install you favorite apps which requires larger size to be into the my apps store and it can expendable up to 64GB with microSD cards which is pretty impressive. The performance of this phone is bigger than its price.

The front snapper is also in a competition with the rear camera itself as it is of 8 mega pixel and has given a tough competition to its rear camera as well.
