Perhaps if they made a phone with an eink display, they would be able to steal some of the mobile market.
The Yota phone, although a step in the right direction, is a compromise. I don't need two screens on such a device.
Yes, some games and certain apps wouldn't work well on an eink mobile phone, but such a phone wouldn't appeal to such people anyway.
However, just imagine being able to read your phone's screen in direct sunlight! Being able to actually compose a photograph in bright sunlight! The ability to go longer before needing to recharge the battery!
