Coolpad Unveils Wide-Screen Smartphone for Around 260 Manats
Coolpad has launched the wide-screen but non-foldable Cool X Wide smartphone in China. The model is available for preorder on JD.com for 999 yuan. That is about $150 (around 260 manats). Deliveries are expected to begin on November 8.
The Cool X Wide has a 6.38-inch display. The screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio, a resolution of 1158 x 720 pixels and a 90 Hz refresh rate. This makes menu transitions and animations appear smoother. Although the phone is almost the same height as the iPhone 18 Pro, it is considerably wider.
The Cool X Wide is approximately 9.4 cm wide. For comparison, Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro is approximately 7.2 cm wide. The wide body brings the screen area closer to that of small tablets. At the same time, the phone does not have a foldable display or a complex folding mechanism.
The standard version has a MediaTek Helio G99 processor, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. The model with 256 GB of storage is sold for approximately $180 (around 310 manats). The variant with 12 GB of RAM costs around $209 (approximately 360 manats). The processor does not support 5G, so the phone works only on 4G networks.
The phone has a 50 MP main camera on the back and a 4600 mAh battery inside. The Cool X Wide ships with the Android 16 operating system. The model is available in black, red and white. The absence of a foldable panel reduces the risk of a crease forming on the screen and the need for costly repairs.
The model’s design shows the influence of wide-screen foldable devices such as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Huawei Pura X View and iPhone Duo. The Huawei Pura X View, which went on sale in China in August, also has a similar wide-screen form factor. The Cool X Wide offers the same approach at a lower price in a conventional smartphone body.
