A Smartphone attached to a balloon took to the skies on September-5 in an attempt to set a record for the highest livestream from such a device.
That smartphone is nothing but our Huawei Honor 8. The phone was attached to a weather balloon also carrying a camera and other equipment, and set off from the SSC Esrange Space Center in northern Sweden. The balloon was expected to burst at an altitude of 30,000 metres (98,425 ft) with the device then making its way back tdown by parachute.
Peter Lundkvist of Huawei Technologies Sweden said the balloon reached 18,421 metres before bursting.
Hopefully, Guinness (World Records) will accept this as a world record in highest smartphone livestreaming.
