Design

Koolnee K1

Sports a Metal body that glows in the presence of light, the device is absolutely stunning no doubt. Just like what we saw when we unboxed the Elephone U Pro. Loving the simple symmetrical aesthetics at the rear as well. With the dual shooters starting up the train in a vertical position at the top middle.

Then the separated dual-LED flash follows suit underneath, before the fingerprint scanner took its place. The Koolnee logo then sums it all up, while the device has curved sides and edges. Measuring 8.8mm in thickness and weighing 210g overall, you can get it in Blue, Black and Golden on Gearbest.

The bezel-less screen on this beauty stretches all the way to the sides, dishing out a curved stunning display with no narrow bezels. However there are still super minimal bezels at the top and bottom corner, unlike the Koolnee K1 Trio which has no top bezel.
