Mpie M7 Plus, If it is to good to be true then….


mpie m7 plus

A concerned GizChina forum member recently stumbled upon a listing for the Mpie M7 plus, a device with incredible hardware at an incredible price, but we think something smells fishy.

If we told you that there is a phone on the market right now that boasts 4GB RAM, an 2.2Ghz MT6752 processor, huge 4400mAh battery, 13 mega-pixel camera, 5.5-inch Super AMOLED display, Android 5.0 Lollipop it would more than likely grab your attention. If we then told you it cost just $135 then you would probably start reaching for your credit card to buy this killer device!

The truth is there is a phone listed online with those specifications right now, the Mpie M7 Plus on Aliexpress, but like most things “if it sounds to good to be true then it probably is!”.

GizChina forum member MMAX found a phone listed as the Mpie M7 Plus on Aliexpress yesterday and quickly hit the forums to see if it was real or not. While Mpie is a real phone maker, we seriously doubt that the specifications are the real deal!

Gizchina News of the week


As we have all learned, it is painfully easy for a dishonest reseller or manufacturer to either photoshop images to create a killer phone, or even install a malicious version of Android which thinks it is running the claimed specifications but in reality is running the cheapest parts available.

Looking over the claimed specifications of the Mpie M7 Plus we feel it is pretty obvious that the phone couldn’t have this type of hardware at such a low price. In fact the fake specs got a little greedy with the claimed 2.2Ghz clock speed for the MT6752. So far only 1.7Ghz versions of the chip have been used and we understand that the SoC can only be clocked to up to 2.0Ghz.

We also feel that if it were true the news would have hit the Chinese tech community already and we would be seeing some huge promotion of this potentially disruptive phone, a true OPO killer and Asus Zenfone 2 slayer.

It is a shame that such a phone isn’t likely at this price yet, but it is also a good reminder to be vigilant when buying your Android smartphones, online.

      I have bought 2 of these. I have opened a dispute, requested a partial refund. Seller can keep 40$, that’s how much I would pay for these.
      I am confident I will get my money back. Waste of time. Was too good to be true indeed.

    OF COURSE IT IS FAKE. IT IS A LOT OF FAKE PHONES LIKE THIS ON ALIEXPRESS. LOOK AT SELLER’S RATING 8ON THE RIGHT). 87,5% FEEDBACK AND ONLY 12 TRANSACTIONS. LOL.

    Andi, I thought you would know for sure that this is fake. 🙂 Phone is probably real, but specifications are fake.

        From my experience on Aliexpress there are 3 brands in particular they tend to fake. Lenovo, Jiayu and Huawei, I generally wouldn’t buy any of these brands there, a quick check though usually reveals the model numbers don’t actually exist or in the case of the Jiayu, spelling mistakes on the back of the phone were a dead giveaway!

    The news here is that 15 buyers have left a positive feedback.
    They are probably running a tweaked version of Antutu that gives them a score of 60.000 and they didn’t even realize that they have a MT6577 phone.
    That guy sold 238 phones so far, good for him.

    • balcobomber25
      May 24, 2015

      This is one of the reasons I stay away from Aliexpress. I knew this particular product was fake once I looked at the specs and price but if it was selling for the same price as normal phones with those specs coupled with all the positive feedback I wouldn’t have been so sure. I bought two things on Ali both from sellers who had a lot of positive feedback one was DoA the other was fake.

          Yup and the seller claimed otherwise, luckily I paid with Paypal they handled the dispute (which took close 2 months) and ultimately resulted in me sending it back and Paypal refunding me the money.

          That was the first phone I bought from a dealer on Ali. I still read good reviews of the site so I gave it a second shot and ordered a Oppo phone. First clue that it was fake, it arrived in a different box then I had seen online for the Oppo. This wasn’t a total shock because I have had it happen before where different regions get different boxes. The biggest clue was when the phone stopped charging and I took it to an Oppo service center. They couldn’t tell it was fake till they ran the serial numbers.

          Both of these shops were trusted sellers with lots of positive feedback (over 90% for both). Now I have four shops I mainly use:

          Honorbuy – Xiaomi products
          Merimobiles
          1949deal
          Antelife/Cooli Cool – A lot of people have a lot of complaints about them but I have had nothing but great service.

          • MaxPower
            May 24, 2015

            I’ve got my MI4 from merimobiles.
            They had the lowest price back in time. It took about a week to ship the phone but other than that everything was good. I also recommend that shop.

            • balcobomber25
              May 25, 2015

              Yea I have used Merimobiles a few times and always had excellent shipping and service. Only reason I use Honorbuy is because they usually give away free stuff with their Xiaomi’s. When I bought my Mi4 I got a free set of Xiaomi Pistons as well as 3 cases.

            • balcobomber25
              May 27, 2015

              I have a Paypal Mastercard. It offers all the same protections as using the regular Paypal site but also works as a normal credit card.

    • Mark Anthony Bulanadi
      June 10, 2015

      Can the seller hack the phone? Cause im the one who installed antutu fresh from google play store?

      • MaxPower
        June 10, 2015

        Most likely not.
        Try CPUz from play store to check if you have the correct SoC

        • Mark Anthony Bulanadi
          June 10, 2015

          Tried it both with cpuz and antutu here’s what I got

          • MaxPower
            June 10, 2015

            They can actually hack the kernel to fool Antutu and get higher score.
            MT6752 should score around 46.000.
            That said, my guess is that your phone has a MT6752 SoC which is the best midrange SoC to date.
            So, as long as you’re happy with the phone just don’t give too much importance to Antutu.

            EDIT: cpuz result is kinda weird.
            What else were you running while checking CPUz?
            It says that CUP load was above 50%

            • Mark Anthony Bulanadi
              June 10, 2015

            • MaxPower
              June 10, 2015

              There’s definitely something going on since the frequency of the CUP is supposed to be 1.7ghz and not 2.2ghz.
              But again, you’re happy with the purchase and that’s what only matters

              Ok guys ran another diagnostic app. Its another version of cpuz and yup its a dual core 1.2ghz processor with 4 gb ram. 🙁 better stick to tried and tested brands. Although the phone still has decent performance but it aint an octacore. Should have bought the asus zen phone.

              It’s still a good phone for the price.it would have been a problem if you paid it as a flagship one, but that’s not the case.

              It’s a Mediatek MT6589 which I owned as well and the only problem I had was a bad GPS.
              Besides that everything was pretty decent.

              Edit: i don’t know why but I read QUAD.
              Dual core 1.2ghz seems to be a MT6572
              But they sold it as a MT6752.
              Ram can’t be 4gb either, it’s most likely 1gb.

            • Mark Anthony Bulanadi
              June 15, 2015

              yeah either way its still a good phone for the price. 🙂 dont know about the ram all the tests say 4gb though it might have been tweaked though. and i do experience a bit of lag sometimes. so maybe 1gb ram sounds about right.

      It’s still a good phone for the price.it would have been a problem if you paid it as a flagship one, but that’s not the case.

      It’s a Mediatek MT6589 which I owned as well and the only problem I had was a bad GPS.
      Besides that everything was pretty decent.

      Edit: i don’t know why but I read QUAD.
      Dual core 1.2ghz seems to be a MT6572
      But they sold it as a MT6752.
      Ram can’t be 4gb either, it’s most likely 1gb.

      yeah either way its still a good phone for the price. 🙂 dont know about the ram all the tests say 4gb though it might have been tweaked though. and i do experience a bit of lag sometimes. so maybe 1gb ram sounds about right.

    After several purchases from AliExpress, I find that the prices are generally not as good and deceptive.

    I’ve bought many things on aliexpress (carefully) and only been disappointed with two transactions , one didn’t arrive, one was poor quality, the other 50 or 60 items, including three phones were as I expected. That is – good value for money, but cheap!
    I purposely bought a fake phone just to see how bad it could be and was amazed at how good it actually was! Sold as a Lenovo p780t, I worked out it was a Melrose p780. The screen was great even though it was only qHD, it was quick enough to be completely useable for normal everyday, and the battery lasted for ages. When I stopped using it, I left it on with two Sims connected and wifi on connected to the router and it was still alive after seven days! Unfortunately I thought I would be clever and flash the proper Melrose rom to replace the fake lenovo one and bricked it!

      Yes if you buy carefully on Aliexpress then there are bargains to be had. I bought a fake Lenovo on there and the screen was horrendous, if you tilted it more than a couple of degrees you couldn’t see it! Despite the really rubbish hardware I was amazed at how great the ROM was, it was packed with features that worked flawlessly, was incredibly quick and had no bugs that I could find. It was the best ROM I’d seen on a phone anywhere, just a shame they couldn’t put the hardware advertised in it, but I sent it back and got my money back.

        I’ve been there with a fake Lenovo too. However with the link you put up it is obviously fake, I always look at the photoshopped antutu screen shots. If you look it says GPU Mali 400 (this is the dual core MT6582 that you found in the device). They always make at least 1 mistake in this way, another is usually found under CPU where it will say ‘Qualcoom Mediatek’, thats another dead giveaway. By checking these you will generally avoid 99.9% of fakes, the last giveaway is obviously the price! lol

    The maker of this phone, Shenzhen Hengyuan Dingye Technology Development Co., Ltd., currently has about a dozen phones (all Android, all using MediaTek CPUs; some of even look like certain well-known smartphones). Even the MPIE M7 Plus is not even listed on their official website. (Their English website is littered with machine translations.)

    Hi, just bought this phone and i would say im fairly happy with it. Got 68708 in the antutu benchmark score and the phone is performing pretty well with the games that i intalled in it. I dont know if they can hack the phone and make antutu say that it has 8 cores which antutu say it has. Anyways as for me i believe i got a great deal.

    I got this phone and i am sorry for myself. The phone seems to be fast as you can see on the specs but it was super slow. I cant play videos in you tube coz its always lagging first time you play video it will say internal error and you will find that it is always out of horizontal sync. The other thing i hate on this phone is the launcher. this launcher makes the phone more slow you will find that it took 5 seconds before the main screen appears. the phone cannot handle to open facebook, messenger, or any application without closing all of it. you must use one application at a time because the phone will hang.whats the use of 3GB ram it the phone is lagging and so slow. in antutu it says MALI-T760 screen resolution is 1920 x 1080 but in ANDA64 it says MALI-400 screen resolution is 540 X960. seems the phone is tweaked and does not really reveal its information. i need to throw this phone and buy for a new one. hope people will not buy this phone and i already warn them.
