If you’ve ever seen a comic book superhero get his own TV series, you know how crazy things can get. That’s exactly what happened with Marvel’s Hawkeye. But this new miniseries isn’t about big ideas around the multiverse or breaking the next piece of ground for Marvel; it’s all about doing right by its characters. And that’s definitely a bullseye on the target.
ZTE has been teasing its crowdsourced Project CSX phone for quite some time now, but this week the company started revealing a few more details about the device. The company announced it would release a final version of the phone in September, assuming that the Kickstarter campaign reaches its goal. The Kickstarter campaign is currently running, with a $199 pledge level getting you one of the phones when they’re available (if the campaign reaches its goal, that is).
During the crowdfunding process, ZTE polled fans to see what features they wanted in the phone. The two winning ideas were eye-tracking software and a self-adhesive case that would allow the phone to stick to surfaces like walls and mirrors, so you could use it hands-free.
In addition to the eye-tracking and adhesive, the phone is also set to feature a dual rear camera with an optical zoom lens. It’s unclear how much the zoom will increase the image quality, but it sounds like a decent option for travelers who want to be able to take clear pictures without having to take their phone out of their pocket.
Other than the cameras, the phone will come with a 5.5-inch touchscreen display that offers a resolution of 1080×1920 pixels. It will be powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, and it will have 3GB of RAM.
As for the battery, the ZTE Hawkeye mobile will have a 3000mAh non-removable one. It’ll also support cellular connectivity via GSM, HSPA+, and LTE bands B2, B4, B5, B7, B12, B13, and B66, making it compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile in the US.
Designed to be an emergency command vehicle, the Hawkeye will be able to navigate offroad terrain with ease thanks to its all-wheel drive and four-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle is also rated for up to a maximum of 190 horsepower, meaning that it should have plenty of power to haul gear and supplies.
The AH-64D will be built on the Mack Sherpa carrier chassis, so it’ll be able to be airlifted by CH-47 Chinook helicopters and loaded into C-130 Hercules tactical transport aircraft. The company hopes to start production on the AH-64D in the fourth quarter of this year. It will be available in various configurations, with the most common being the armed version. Other options will include an unarmed version for law enforcement. The armed version will be outfitted with the latest in counter-terrorism technologies, including an advanced ballistics computer and sensors for tracking moving objects. The AH-64D can also be equipped with a variety of fire-control systems.
