Turing Robotic Industries has just teamed up with hardware maker TCL that, in addition to its own handsets that usually can be found on Chinese wholesale websites, is currently making BlackBerry and Alcatel devices as well. Now, the upcoming Turing smartphone that will be made by this manufacturer is ready to bring Liquidmorphium to the masses.

The upcoming Turing Appassionato is a luxury handset that uses durable Liquidmorphium material and a diamond-like-carbon coating, offering a ceramic feel. The detailed specs are not public yet, but we know of the Qualcomm MSM8996SG-AC processor, Android 7.1.1 Nougat, Amplified Intelligence virtual assistant, as well as an enhanced-concierge service.

Turing Appassionato is expected to hit the market in September, and it does not come cheap - the elite edition Turing Phone Appassionato PX8 has a price tag of $1,099 USD, while the premium-luxury edition Turing Phone Appassionato GX8 is even more expensive, being priced at $1,599 USD.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
