smartphone Robin*. Nextbit is led by former Google executive Tom Moss and backed

Jörgen Lantto, CEO of FPC, comments: "NextBit is an up and coming smartphone OEM
with an interesting business model and we are proud that NextBit selected
FPC1145 for Robin, its first smartphone.
FPC1145 supports 360 degree finger
rotation capability, fast response time and industry leading 3D image quality,
and its small size enables placement on the side of the smartphone".

with the ultimate user experience for Robin, we consider embedding a touch
fingerprint sensor a mandatory feature. FPC1145 allows us to place the
fingerprint sensor embedded with the power button, maintaining our look and feel
with no buttons on the front. We are happy to deliver a great user experience
for secure user verification with FPC1145".
