Coolpad Ivvi K1 Mini becomes the world's thinnest smartphone

The Coolpad Ivvi K1 Mini has now become official, and it's the new world's thinnest smartphone. The device was teased once back in January, when we first heard it would dare to take that crown away from the Vivo X5 Max, the previous holder of the "world's slimmest" title.

And now it has. The Ivvi K1 Mini is just 4.7mm thin, which is 0.5mm less than the X5 Max and 1.5mm less than the Oppo R5, which has now become the world's third thinnest handset.

The Ivvi K1 Mini won't be a high-end offering, it will instead have midrange specs, paired with a "baby skin" texture on its back, which should not attract any fingerprints.

The phone will sport a 4.7-inch touchscreen (resolution is still unknown), an 8 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front-facing shooter, and a 1,800 mAh battery. It will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 64-bit SoC (probably with a 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU), aided by 1GB of RAM and 8GB of built-in storage. 4G LTE support will be in too.

The Coolpad Ivvi K1 Mini will be available in China in white for starters, for an asking price of CNY 1,299, which right now translates into approximately $207 or €180. It's unclear whether it will ever officially be offered in other markets.
