Facebook has announced two new devices in its video phone lineup: the Portal Go and Portal Plus.
Facebook launches new smart video calling device: 'Portal Go'
The 10-inch Portal Go is the new portable option with a separate battery and a fabric cover, while the 14-inch Portal Plus retains many of the same capabilities but is aimed at business purposes.
The Portal Go is the first in the range to come with a portable battery. It has two 5W full-range speakers with a single 20W woofer, and can connect to a huge range of entertainment apps including Spotify, Pandora and Red Bull TV. And thanks to Bluetooth capability, the Portal Go can be used as a handy speaker alongside a videophone.
As a videophone, the Portal Go has a 12-megapixel Smart Camera with a 125-degree field of view that uses AI to automatically focus on what it’s looking at. It also follows the user by zooming in and out and panning as they move.
