Amazon is developing a smartphone with a 3D screen.

More than a year there are rumors that Amazon will release a smartphone. Today, The Wall Street Journal reported that Amazon is working on a wide range of gadgets, including two smartphones, one of which will have a 3D screen, writes Mashable.

Referring to several anonymous sources, the WSJ says that for a smartphone with 3D support, no special glasses will be needed and they can even be controlled by eye movement.

In addition to the two smartphone models, Amazon is also working on a device for streaming music and a set top box. The latter was already reported by Bloomberg BusinessWeek last month.

So far, Amazon’s gadget efforts have focused on Kindle readers and tablets. Nevertheless, CEO Jeff Bezos said in an interview with AllThingsD in September that Amazon plans to expand its line of devices this year.

“Sure - not soon, but next year. We still have a few things that we hope people will like, ”he said in an interview. “It’s too early to talk about them.”

Although the fact that Amazon is working on a smartphone is no longer news, it is a little strange to hear about a possible 3D device. Despite a fair amount of noise a couple of years ago, 3D technologies had a rather modest success in the consumer technology market. However, after the WSJ article was published, Amazon shares rose by 1.5%.
