The Phone’s sliding QWERTY keyboard reminds us of BlackBerry Key and Samsung Wave series phones. But for sure in an advanced way than those because of its tremendous “Rock UP” Hinge mechanism.
Astro Slide Smartphone will be the third product by Planet Computers. Before that, we have seen Gemini PDA & Cosmo Communicator in markets by the same company. The planet team so far is going well on track with great innovative ideas and bringing pocket computing more in common trends. So, let’s have a look over the specs and other expected features of this smartphone.

Thirdly, I would mention the all in one support of Astro Slide Smartphone. Simply, slide out the screen to reveal the keyboard, then flip it up and here you go. You have a Mini Laptop placed in front of you. Similarly, close the slide and use it as a normal Smartphone and PDA. The 6.5 Inches screen is enough to serve you well.

The powerful 5G support and Sliding Keyboard may give a plus point to Planet Computers. Especially when a trend is already moving towards, foldable Phones, Sliding Phones, and Pocket Computing.
