Commodore PET Smartphone, Combined Retro and Modernity in Pleasant Way

Very few of us are familiar with the name of Commodore International. The oldest player in the computer industry met with its fate of Atropos in 1994. Well, the defunct company had made its first comeback in 2004 with TV-Game joystick and again in 2011, the North American tech firm wadded its gaming PCs into retro-styled keyboard chassis and then sold them out.

This year, the tech company has come again with a 5.5-inch Android smartphone to remember the halcyon years. Company has abbreviated its old computer’s name and labeled the new device under an old naming convention. Commodore PET is the name for this new Android smartphone which is quasi-brilliant with competent features.
