UMi tease USB Type-C for the upcoming Hammer S

This year UMi is definitely on a roll, with 4 already launched devices and the highly anticipated UMi Zero 2 around the corner. Yet the company wants to show they still have a lot left in the kitty.

Today through their Facebook page, the company shared a photo-teaser of a new device in development, named as Hammer S. Although there are few details about it right at the moment, we can already find two interesting characteristics present in the picture.

Taking a quick look in the picture we can already see the device will feature a USB Type-C port, a very interesting detail since the Type-C connection will be a trending feature in most smartphones for the next months. For now, USB Type-C is only present on the LeTV phones and the upcoming OnePlus 2. Thanks to the picture, we can also bet in a unibody alloy design or a similar concept as the present in the UMi Iron.

If by chance you've spent the last few months in a cave, far from the Chinese news, or simply was not interested in the UMi launches, the UMi Hammer was a phone launched some months ago with the promise of be a highly durable smartphone, and of course we've put this promise to test.

While Hammer was a mid-range focused on resistance and toughness, the Hammer S seems to bring a more flagship's appeal as the "More than just a upgrade" slogan should describe. For now these are all the details, but we'll be waiting for more soon, Meanwhile let your bets and prospects for the new device!
