      Where did you order your phone? As I have ordered late July(23th) and received it before the month was over.

          I would definitely request a refund or atleast contact them. If you have received your refund I would place an order on a different shop such as shop.gizchina.com.

            I’ve contacted them and Ulefone and Ulefone said:’

            Hi, there is indeed some delay on our site because of too many
            orders.
            Vickmall is a licensed shop of ours, so please don’t doubt out them.
            We are producing be touch 2 at full speed, so it may be sent out in a few
            days.’ That was 9 days ago! So i’m surprised they do another flash sale if they have delay’s!

              Have you received any news from Vickmall? They might have forgotten your order.

              Happened to me once with Vickmall.

              Hey Jolu, Vickmall answered:’Hello dear Sir
              very sorry,
              because are not in available all the time
              and the other customer still wait for news from Ulefone supplier
              if you dont want to wait we will refund your money back’
              I wrote back i would wait!

              August 25, 2015

              It seems like some sellers get more or faster supplied than others. Well I guess waiting isn’t that bad. You will have the newest update which fixed some bugs.

              I hope you will receive it soon.

    I ordered it, received it, used it n returned it also, its just a shit of a phone . Only paper phone. Nothing works according as description , so many bugs, manufacturing defects. The only thing good is, The phone looks good n build quality is above average. Dont opt for this phone.

          I have one.Good shape design, advanced configuration, the camera is very good.The most important is the front fingerprint identification.I don’t care if it’s like iPhone.I also think that the best option should be iPhone. But it’s out of my budget.Ulefone is a good choice for me.

          • Muhammad Yasir
            August 25, 2015

            but all the reviews are villifying the cam like CRAZY … can u post some sample pics … of night shots and shots with flash?

            • ljan ryan
              August 26, 2015

              night?Mobile phone flash only 1-2 meters away, even a good camera, camera will be much noise at night. After all, the light is very much influenced by the camera.You can choose the night view mode, it will enhance exposure.

              August 25, 2015

              I would call the camera good but not on par with a device like Xiaomi Mi Note or LeTV. I will try to get some shots asap.

            • Muhammad Yasir
              August 25, 2015

              thanks … focus on night shots and shots which test the quality of the flash…

        May b you are lucky in 10 people, I have some international frnds from so many parts of the world which are not happy with the phone. Every 3 people of 5 who bought bt 2 are complaining , chk some forums. You will also join us in the future, don’t worry, n if you want to chk it now try antutu score when battery is 40% or below , you will get a shocking score. it is just one shitty thing there are so many with this phone, you will know in coming days with your phone.

      No one=you?Do you have ulefone Be Touch 2?Do not know how you get this conclusion.Configuration design, hardware configuration.ulefone .$179.99 Be Touch 2 is a good choose.

        I did have a Ulefone Be Touch 2. Had to send it back,. It developed several bright spots on the screen within days. The firmware was appalling. Very laggy. If you use the fingerprint scanner to unlock then you don’t get the benefit of lockscreen notifications. There is no excuse for this other than a badly designed firmware. The SoC overheats (as do all MT6752) and Ulefone choke the cpu speed once the battery dips below 50%. The battery life is poor. The firmware takes up approx 1.9GB of the 3gb of available RAM – without any other apps open – very badly optimized. The screen to body ratio is very poor and the phone is unnecessarily heavy. These are my fist hand impressions. I wouldn’t touch it with a shitty stick.

        • ljan ryan
          August 26, 2015

          I think it’s very good, especially with iPhone, I think it’s very convenient to use.
          No notifications light? IPhone no, I don’t think it’s going to affect the use, the indicator light sometimes when you are using a mobile phone, to the message, it will not stop flashing, you have to exit the program, to turn it off. I updated the latest 0811 firmware, starting on the 800M, Android design principle is to continue to increase the application, until can not be increased, the system will automatically give you a new RAM, the end of some unnecessary background procedures, and the background process can ensure you quickly re open the application. I think you are not suitable for using Android, and should choose the IOS system, it is suitable for you.

      All those good phones redmi letv nubia…. Dont have b20 lte. So for 179 dollars it is perfect price and quality match for use in europe. What i will do in france without b20….

  5. Hiwyx
    August 25, 2015

    Redmi note 2 or this one ? In China the price is close. I believe most phones are a bit buggy with first release of firmware (even iPhone had this issue in the past) so I wouldn’t be surprised if the problems of first users are now solved.
    Redmi note 2 also has its own problems apparently.

    hi ,
    and where is the Gold Ulefone Be Touch 2 ??
    i hope they will release Be Touch 3 in the future with MTK 6795 or Helio processor ^^

    Stay away off the Ulefone Be Touch 2. It has some serious hardware failures, with ‘clouding’ as the most serious one. Clouding means that some hardware behind the screen presses too much to the screen leaving white spots of about 7-8 mm diametre on the bottom of the screen.
    Also it has bad battery, just moderate wifi, wifi interferes compass (so bad phone for navigation purposes), fake Lollipop 5.1, no Gorillaglass etc. A shame this is hardly mentioned on Gizchina.com (I hope that has nothing to do with the allegiance of the webstore gizchina… independant journalism?)… Gizchina.de does have a very active thread about the problems.
    I have had mine for one week and am happy I could sell it with just little loss.
    See what’s told below by other people who had one in their possession for some time…

    (Phone looks good, but is bad)

      Why my be touch 2 ‘s battery is better than SUMSUNG 5S ? and my hardware of Touch 2 works well. I deem the ulefone be touch 2 deserved $229.99. Let alone 179.99.

    Oh, no, i missed last chance for 179.99 and bought it for 199.99 in previous promotion. And now the 179.99 comes again. And i’ve asked the ulefone customer service, who says this time there might not be actually limit over supply and i could be garanteed a successful purchase as long as i pay for it in the 2 hours mentioned. But no, i’ve bought it for 199.99. Very satisfied with the phone, the fantastic fingerprint scanner which is placed front, fantastic appearance with metal frame and 2.5D glass, the real high-rank MTK6752 chipset with 1.7GHz which is seldom adopted on other Chinese phones, and the sharp Full HD display and . Hope the company will release updates to make the phone more smooth.
