High resolution photos and videos of the Kin Two have up until now been pretty hard to come by, however a recent article posted on IntoMobile shows a gallery of images of the Kin Two along with an unboxing video.

The unboxing video has been embedded at the end of this post, when watching the video the first thing you notice is the weird cylindrical packaging that Microsoft have chosen for the smartphone, however a lot of thought has gone into this packaging, best of all it is eco-friendly.

The video shows that the Kin Two fits into your hand quite nicely, also the keyboard slides-out in a similar way to the Nokia N97, the keyboard revealed has a pretty unique look and appears to be easy to use and well-spaced. The back of the Kin Two has a beveled design, however this causes the camera shutter button to be awkward to press, this could prove to be an annoyance for Kin Two owners.

All in all I must say that the handset looks pretty good, however a recent mini review was pretty critical, that said I think a lot of review sites and individuals out there have a love-to-hate opinion on all Microsoft’s products.

Check out the video yourself (below) and tell us what you think, also check out the source link for a full gallery of images.

We have a short review of the Kin Two for you to check out now – although you may find it very surprising.

The review comes to us from BGR, and wastes no time in informing us on how the Kin Two is pretty disappointing as a final package. Not only because of the price plans for the phone ($30/month), but also the cheap design feel and far from impressive display screen.

While they point out that Kin Studio is a cool addition, they say that the execution of Kin Loop is poor and just reminds them of Motorola’s MOTOBLUR – which they also call a ‘mess’.

What are your thoughts on this? Have they been too harsh on Microsoft or not? Read their article and give us your say on this.
