Energizer® x KaiOS smart feature phones now available

They’re here! Energizer® Mobile announced the release of its two new models, the E241 and E241S, powered by the KaiOS operating system. This OS brings the essential elements of a smartphone - such as 4G VoLTE, GPS, Internet access and the ability to download apps - to feature phones, at a much lower cost than smartphones.

KaiOS : the advantages of a smartphone at the price of a feature phone 

KaiOS Technologies’ mission is simple: to promote access to communication and new technologies for all. Thanks to this new lightweight, optimised operating system, the Energizer® E241 (3G) and E241S (4G) offer access to the Internet, Wi-Fi, GPS, VoLTE and many other services. 

The E241S is one of the first KaiOS 4G LTE mobiles in the world and offers smooth, fast browsing. 

Downloading apps to feature phones is now possible, and the KaiStore offers dozens of apps in many categories (games, social networks, lifestyle, etc.). 
The most commonly used ones, such as WhatsApp, YouTube, Facebook, Assistant and Maps are already pre-installed.

Smart feature phones: a market of the future 

«With 450 million units sold in 2017, the feature phone market is doing well. We are proud to be marketing the first Energizer® 3G and 4G mobiles running KaiOS to continue our penetration into this market, especially in developing countries,» said Jean-Daniel Beurnier, CEO of Avenir Telecom. «By integrating KaiOS on our Energizer® mobiles, we are offering a range of smart feature phones that help make technological innovation accessible to as many people as possible». 

Large battery & double SIM: part of the Energizer® DNA

As with the entire Energizer® range, the E241 and E241S enjoy a long battery life thanks to the 1900 mAh battery. Optimised for low power consumption, it offers up to 28 hours of calls, 9 hours of video and 6 days of standby, which will satisfy users with limited access to a charging point. 
The dual SIM option is also available to allow users to enjoy two separate lines, two different packages or better network coverage. The possibility for two people to share a phone further reinforces the promise of accessibility of these new mobiles. 

Two lenses for photos from all angles 

The Energy E241 and E241S each have a front and a rear camera with flash for taking bright, clear pictures. In selfie or landscape mode, the two lenses allow you to choose the best angle for your shot. 
Lenses and flash are integrated discreetly into the contemporary silhouette of the two new phones. Their sophisticated black or blue-effect carbon coating, elegant curves and slim design contribute to their trendy look. 
Their ergonomics and light weight ensure a perfect grip while the 2.4-inch screen lets you view its contents comfortably.
