A new handset offering both communication and shaving capabilities

A new and rather interesting mobile phone can now be spotted on the Web, the Cool758, which has been developed by a less known Chinese manufacturer. What is so interesting about the device is a feature that it incorporates. And while we're looking at handsets that would be able to provide us with as many capabilities as possible, such as Internet browsing, multimedia players or high-quality photo snappers, the new Cool758 includes something else, namely a razor.

The new device comes with a real razor, which is placed on the lower side of the handset. The bottom part of Cool758's chassis can be removed to unveil the razor, yet we're not sure how long the battery of the mobile phone would last in case one would actually use said razor.

The rather bizarre accessory of the device in not all that it can offer. In addition, the new Cool758 razor phone is also reported to come around with support for two SIM cards at the same time, something that seems to become a common feature in most of the handsets marketed in China.

The specification list of the new handset also shows that it includes dual-band GSM connectivity (900 / 1800 MHz), a 2.6-inch TFT QVGA display with touchscreen capabilities, a VGA photo snapper, which is said to come with video recording capabilities as well, along with Bluetooth connectivity, multimedia player, MMS, GPRS connectivity and FM Radio functionality.

In addition, it seems that the new Cool758 razor phone can also allow users to add up to 8GB of additional storage space. The mobile phone measures 120 x 52 x 19 mm, and it includes a 2800mAh battery that can offer up to 3 hours of talk time and up to 260 hours of standby time. The new handset is already available for purchase at Solomobi, for a price of $112.
