The Smartphone with a 14 Mega Pixel Camera
Altek has decided to slap a ridiculously awesome camera on the back of what appears to be an Android platform smart phone known as Leo. While no details other than the monster 14MP camera capable of taking 720p HD video are currently available, this smart phone is already turning heads. Hopefully, Leo will find it’s way to the United States very soon as it debuts next month in Singapore at CommunicAsia. Make sure you aren’t wearing tight pants when you have this in your pocket, “Is that your Altek in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?”
