Red, the company which makes professional cinema video cameras has announced they’ll be putting out a smartphone. The name of the phone is Hydrogen One.
The Hydrogen One can be used as a monitor and user interface for their pro video cameras. It will have USB-C charging, and a microSD slot for expanding memory.
Similar to Moto mods for Motorola modular phones, the Hydrogen One will be able to accept modular upgrades. One of the mentioned upgrades is a peripheral camera which will be able to capture high quality video and still images, as well as Hydrogen forma holographic images.
