# Dual-Screen E-Ink Phones Bigme HiBreak Dual Pairs a Color E Ink Display with a Circular Rear Lcd By Amy Duong | Published 2026-04-18 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hibreak References: [store.bigme.vip](https://store.bigme.vip/pages/hibreak-dual-smartphone)  [Bigme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigme-hibreak) HiBreak Dual is a smartphone built around a dual-display system that separates reading and utility functions across two screens. The Bigme HiBreak Dual features a 6.13-inch color E Ink display on the front, designed for low-glare reading, writing, and extended use with reduced eye strain. A secondary circular LCD screen is placed on the back, acting as a quick-access interface for notifications, music controls, and camera previews. This split approach allows the device to maintain the efficiency of E Ink while supporting tasks that require faster refresh and color accuracy. The device runs on Android 14 and is powered by a [MediaTek](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigme-hibreak-pro) [Dimensity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-50-nxtpaper-and-50-pro-nxtpaper) 1080 processor, with configurations up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. A 4,500mAh battery supports extended use, while stylus compatibility enables note-taking and annotation directly on the E Ink display. The rear LCD measures approximately 1.85 inches with a 360 by 360 resolution, functioning as a compact interface rather than a full secondary screen.
