Hisense teases the Hisense A10 E Ink smartphone with rumored specs including a 7-inch display, Snapdragon processor, and mid-2026 release window.

Hisense has officially teased the Hisense A10, marking its return to the E Ink smartphone market after a three-year absence. The company is positioning the device as a successor to the Hisense A9, which launched in 2022 with a smaller 6.1-inch display. The device is aimed at users seeking specialized phones with long battery life and reduced eye strain compared to standard displays.

Unofficial reports point to a larger display and improved battery for the successor device.

The Hisense A10 is expected to feature a larger 7-inch Carta 1300 E Ink display, according to unconfirmed reports circulating online. The device reportedly runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. The reported specs indicate an emphasis on handling multiple tasks and storing large amounts of reading material.

Battery capacity is another key detail from the leaked information, with claims pointing to a 4,500mAh cell.

Hisense has indicated that the A10 could arrive around mid-2026, though no official launch date or detailed pricing has been confirmed. The company has not yet verified the specific technical specifications, leaving them as unofficial claims until further notice. The projected schedule provides time for final adjustments prior to launch.

Hisense is using promotional teasers to reconnect with fans of e-paper phones and professional readers. The larger display compared to the earlier A9 is intended to improve the experience for reading and writing notes. The unconfirmed nature of these details means that final specifications may vary upon official release.
