Fujitsu Arrow A revealed with three day battery life, 10 minute recharge and fingerprint unlock

The holiday season is almost upon us, and as you can expect it will bring a new lineup of devices from manufacturers ready to take our money. One of the interesting entrants is the Fujitsu Arrows A 301F - An Android smartphone which claims an amazing three day battery life on a single charge.

But surprisingly the Fujitsu Arrow A comes with a moderate 2600 mAh battery. Additionally its 5 inch full HD display, 13 megapixel camera and Snapdragon 800 processor are are top shelf specs which are generally demanding on your battery. The amazingly long battery life could be a result of the IGZO display panel from Sharp, which is known to offer improved battery life or Fujitsu's own optimizations, but in either case the result is pretty impressive.

The other impressive detail about the battery cell is that it can be charged in just 10 minutes. Fujitsu has listed that the handset is shipped with a 'dedicated' power brock and dock, which is likely combination for the rapid charging. Still the thought of being able to charge your device between a cup of coffee and then use it throughout the day without the need of recharging is something more manufacturers should be looking into.

However things don't end there. The Arrow A camera additionally features optical image stabilization and you even have a fingerprint sensor similar to the one found on the Apple iPhone 5s. The Fujitsu Arrow A is expected to be available in Japan, but its unlikely to arrive in the U.S. through any official channels.
