We all owe a lot to Kodak. The imaging company was the forerunner in colour film, but also a largely unsung hero in technological developments: it invented the digital camera and even OLED display technology. That was all before it fell behind the times...
As phone cameras continue to get better and better, we had high hopes for the Kodak Ektra. Its stance toward being a camera-phone help it to stand-out in a market of otherwise copycat devices that, to many, will be hard to recognise one from the next.Sadl...

As the saying goes, “the best camera you have is the one you have on you”. Anyone who owns a DSLR and a mountain of lenses and accessories can attest to how much of a pain carrying the caboodle around can be. That's why CSC and mirrorless cameras have bec...
The Kodak Ektra is going to be a rather niche product and, of course, its camera performance will make or break it. It at least still feels like a smartphone, but one with seriously bolstered image-taking capabilities. Previous camera-focused smartphones...

There might be a wave of new phones with dual-cameras, but Kodak has created a smartphone tailored specially for photographers which harks back to a camera from 70 years ago. Here's our Kodak Ektra smartphone hands-on review. See also: Best camera phone 2...
It's too early to give a verdict on the Kodak Ektra but it has a lot of potential, especially at a cheaper price point compared to flagship phones. We certainly like the unique design so we're looking forward to testing it out properly...

The Kodak Ektra in 1941 was more than a flagship. With rugged good-looks, it packed a punch and was easily the best back then. The 35mm rangefinder camera had steel and leather aplenty with interchangable lenses and the focal plane shutter that went up to...

This smartphone is for the stylish and discerning customer who wants to be seen with a fantastic looking product encased in a leather carrying case. It also happens to be a phone. During hands-on time, it came across as a good product but how good the cam...

Camera manufacturers have form for delving into the past and reprising designs of years gone by. But Kodak's latest feat of rose-tinted history-gazing is on another level entirely. Instead of lavishing a plush retro design on a modern digital camera, Koda...
Still, from what I've seen so far, the Kodak Ektra is definitely one to watch and it will be interesting to see how it measures up. We won't have to wait long to find out, either: the Ektra will be launching across Europe in early December for £449. It's...

This makes the Ektra much easier to hold when shooting photos in landscape, but I'm worried it will become rather unwieldy during everyday use. I'll have to wait and see how it fares once I get one in for a full review, but from my hands-on time with the...

The Kodak Ektra is the secondever smartphone from the famous US company. Designed to be a smartphone for keen photographers, the Kodak Ektra has a 21-megapixel 1/2.4in sensor rear-facing camera with an f/2.0 lens, 6-axis optical image stabilisation and Ph...
The Kodak Ektra certainly looks fantastic in all those glossy online marketing shots, but in reality it doesn't quite live up to its promise, either as a camera or a smartphone.While we love the retro styling, the dedicated shutter button and hand...

The Ektra doesn't have the latest version of Android, its 5-inch screen is pretty small by modern standards, and it certainly isn't what I'd call compact. So what is it good for? If that big rounded grip and massive 21-megapixel rear camera are any indica...

As a phone, the Ektra is pretty mediocre. Even though it has respectable performance, the Ektra falls short on battery, its display feels pretty small in 2017 and it's far from the sleekest or most portable phone on the market. As a camera, the Ektra can'...

Despite a fair amount of issues, the Kodak Ektra is perhaps the first phone that would make me consider going back to Android.You see, for many years Android has been about hacking and DIY stuff. But in fact, lots of folks use Android simply because the...

Super 8 doesn't let you keep multiple edits of the same image, The camera on the back is mostly an aesthetics thing, A bit bigger than I'd like it to be, One handed operation still sucks on Android, My iPhone 6s is still slightly faster, I wish that Kodak...
So do I like the Kodak Ektra? I really do, but mostly for the camera. When it comes to the rest of the phone, my mannerisms aren't going to change. I'm still going to use it mostly for business, texting, updating Instagram, browsing Facebook, reading Flip...

To really put that on the forefront, the Kodak Ektra smartphone is designed to be both a phone and a camera. The ergonomics are a nod to film cartridges and cameras while it runs plain old Vanilla Android–my favorite flavor. For years I was an Android use...
The Kodak Ektra is a pretty nice phone thus far, but I need to spend a lot more time with it before I make any full conclusions. There are times when the phone slows down and times when it delivers some spectacular photos.Stay tuned for our full review.Re...
