Take a closer look at the YotaPhone 2 in the video below.

Russian manufacturer Yota Devices initially introduced the two-sided Android-based device in December 2013. This summer marks its first trade into 
the U.S. market.



The original YotaPhone remains available in black or white for €399 ($442) or £319 ($487) in Austria, Belarus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, India, Italy, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, and the U.K., among other areas.


The YotaPhone 2 boasts a traditional LCD display on one side, and 4.7-inch e-ink screen on the other.

Users can keep up with important notifications without having to swipe to unlock the phone, or spend up to 100 hours reading books, social networks, RSS feeds, blogs, and other text via the battery-friendly e-ink display.

The gadget's 2,500mAh battery promises five days of reading and two days of basic smartphone functions on a single charge.A truly smart phone, the handset recognizes when it is running out of steam, and automatically switches into YotaEnergy mode to increase battery life.

Though exactly what that price will be remains a mystery. When the second-gen device rolled out across Europe, Russia, and the Middle East in December, it cost anywhere from ($532) to £555 ($847).
