We first started with a lot of different types of concepts and designs, and after a lot of iterations and testing and vetting, we really kind of narrowed it down to two designs, which was a large and a small. Before you knew it, the Portal was born. (energetic electronica music) - We needed to ensure that it was not only water proof but also flexible, shatter-proof and wearable. - We needed to build a team of incredible people with a wide range of skill sets, who were all unified to pursue our mission and break the mold of the mobile market. The problem with the mobile market right now is that the phones are all the same and what little differentiation they have is that some are less user friendly, and some are less durable. Things like this still happen so we're here to change that. - [Voiceover] With the vibrant Pilot's clean typography and easy to understand icon set the Portal UI is an experience that cannot be missed. Why be stuck with the same old design when you got a new and refreshed interface to play with? An interface that has since arrived that knows what you want and works with you in a way that you want it to work. - [Voiceover] The Portal not only has all the features you would expect, such as WiFi, Bluetooth, and NFC, but also has a waterproof (*) infused polyurethane body, a 6 inch flexible display wireless charging, an unlocked network, and so much more.
