Technology products are often associated with having a fair bit of plastic in their construction, so the Carbon 1 MK II is positioned as an alternative that helps to reduce the amount of the material in the mix.
The smartphone is reported to contain less than 5% plastic and is made with a series of durable materials like carbon fiber to ensure it's ready to withstand daily use. The device weighs in at 125-grams and is paired with the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus on the front to further enhance its durable nature.
The Carbon 1 MK II smartphone has a 1080p 6-inch OLED display along with 256GB of storage space, 8GB of RAM and a 3,000mAh battery to boot.
