At CES 2012, we spotted this rather surprising Fujitsu Arrows smartphone, an Android 2.3 handset just 6.7 mm thick and weighing 105 grammes. It has an OLED screen and a battery offering almost seven hours of talk-time. On top of that, it's waterproof!
The Arrows smartphone has a 4-inch OLED screen with 480 x 800 pixels and runs on a Qualcomm MSM8655 processor.
Although the camera is 'only' a 5-Megapixel affair, Fujitsu is keen to show off its Whiteboard Memo function, which students and business types are sure to find handy. Basically, if you take a picture of a whiteboard, the camera automatically cleans up the image (white balance, reflections) to make any text easier to read.
Note that Panasonic is due to officially present a waterproof smartphone sometime soon, although it's not quite as super-slim as this Fujitsu model.
