Philips to Launch Smartphones that Reduce Eye Strain in China

Philips introduced two new smartphones that employs its Soft Blue technology to reduce eye strain in October 31, 2015 in China, according to an article from Vine Report.

The Sapphire S616 and the Sapphire Life V787 smartphones, which operate on Android systems employ SoftBlue technology.

According to an earlier Philips press release, the SoftBlue display technology does not rely on filters to reduce blue light emissions. Instead they eliminate blue light emissions at potentially harmful wavelengths at the higher end of the shortwave spectrum, and shift the wavelength peak from 450 nm to 460 nm. This can reduce more than 86% of blue light in the smartphones set for launch in November.

The Philips Sapphire Life V787 and S616 share very similar features, except the former phone model battery uses Xenium technology, which could enable 47 hours of talk time at 5000 mAh. The phone also has a smaller screen, 5-inches with a 1,080 x 1,920 pixel resolution with a higher 441 ppi pixel density. Its Phase Detection Auto Focus 13 MP rear camera, according to Domainer Developer, allows it to focus in 0.2 seconds.

In contrast, the Philips Sapphire S616 has a 5.50inch display with a 1,080 x 1,920 pixel resolution at 441 ppi pixel density. The smartphone is powered by Mali T720 GPU, with a 2GB RAM and an octa-core 1.3 GHz MediaTek MT6753 processor. It also is built with a 16 GB internal storage, but its memory is expandable to 128 GB through its micro SD access slot.

The Philips Sapphire S616, on the other hand, has a 5.5-inch display with a 1080 × 1920 pixel resolution at 441 ppi pixel density. The smartphone is powered by the Mali T720 GPU, 2 GB of RAM and an octa-core 1.3 GHz MediaTek MT6753 processor. It also comes with a 16 GB internal storage. But for those who may need additional memory, the smartphone is expandable to 128 GB through its microSD access slot.

The Sapphire S616 phone pricing is said to be around US $222.
