The Spyker namesake is probably much better known among auto enthusiasts, but the crazy Dutch car manufacturer also lends its name to a variety of consumer electronics. We’ve seen some Spyker-branded mobile phones before, but none have exactly approached the same market as the Apple iPhone. That is, until now.
Over at Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress, there’s a touchscreen cell phone being bandied around that features the Spyker name. What makes this iPhone-like clone a little different is that they’ve managed to shove a tiny numeric keypad underneath the touchscreen display. The digits are probably a little hard to dial, but they might beat using a virtual keypad. Then again…
Anyways, it’s hard to tell what the rest of the feature set holds, because the Spyker-branded phone was housed behind a glass case at the MWC. At the same time, we’re not even completely sure that the display is a touchscreen. Maybe it’s just a big display.
