The three-dimensional dimension of the Niche Phone-S+is 50 * 90 * 9.5mm, which is actually thicker than most smart phones today.

With 512MB memory and 4GB storage (1.8GB is available after deducting the system occupation), it supports 2/3/4G networking and VoLTE calls.

It is equipped with a streamlined Android 6.0 system. Except for phone messages, it only retains a few functions such as recording, alarm clock, mobile hotspot, Bluetooth, etc. 0.96 inch 128x64 resolution monochrome screen, nano SIM card, Bluetooth 4.0 support. 1000mAh battery, 3 hours of continuous talk time, 110 hours of standby time, about 4.5 days. It takes 2 hours to fully charge with 5V 1A "safe quick charge".

Niche Phone-S+uses a magnetic contact charging port that rarely appears on mobile phones, but is extremely easy to use. Like some smart watch accessories, its magnetic charging wire can also serve as a data cable (used to guide music and the like). The only pity is that this line uses the micro USB interface.
