LONDON, December 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Iconic imaging brand Kodak and leading mobile device
manufacturer Bullitt Group, have today announced that they will
launch a range of Android-powered mobile devices offering
best-in-class image management software and features along with
great design and UI.
Aimed at - but not exclusively for - consumers who want a
high-end experience but aren't always as comfortable using
increasingly complicated mobile devices as they would like to be,
the range of smartphones and tablets will come pre-loaded with
bespoke image capture, management and sharing features to offer a
rich user experience.
In addition, advanced remote management software will be
pre-installed, allowing family members and friends to provide help
and support if needed.
"Kodak is one of the world's most recognisable brands. It is
trusted by consumers as a marque of quality and innovation," says
Oliver Schulte, CEO Bullitt Mobile. "We've taken that heritage and
used it to inspire a range of beautifully designed devices that
will let users take great pictures and edit, share, store and print
them in an instant."
Unlike other phones aimed at this target audience, the KODAK
Mobile Device range will not compromise on design and user
experience. With as much focus on design as well as usability, the
range will stand out in a market segment that is currently
under-served.
Adds Schulte: "Delivering simplicity without compromise, these
devices will address a segment of the mobile device market that has
been poorly served to date. By giving customers easy access to
printing and sharing services while still offering the latest
Android OS and features found on high-end smartphones, we will
appeal to a large audience of users who value ease of use and
stylish design as highly as they value functionality."
Eileen Murphy, VP Brand
Licensing, Kodak is excited to be entering the mobile handset
market with the Bullitt Group. "We are impressed with Bullitt
Group's commitment to delivering a portfolio of products that
embrace the quality and innovation that our brand is known for
around the world."
The first handset will be launched at CES 2015 on the Kodak
stand in South Hall 1, Booth 21818. There will be further product
announcements across the second half of 2015 including a 4G
handset, a tablet and a connected camera.
