UMI Touch teardown video – what’s inside?


UMI is trying hard to make a splash with their UMI Touch model so to attract even more potential suitors they have published a teardown video showing the innards of the phone.

Gizchina News of the week


UMI Touch is a phone with unibody full metal construction, front fingerprint scanner and available in gold, silver or dark grey colors. Personally I’m not a fan of the golden design phones but to each it’s own and especially in Asia it’s very popular. Another appealing feature of the phone is 4000 mAh battery able to fit the overally slim 8.5mm thin body.

    Song is really annoying, those nails are hideous. On the picture digitizer and display are separated, it is not shown if it possible. The only good thing is it seems most parts are easy to replace, but it also depends on availability.
    I bought the phone for 109.99$ from Tomtop, still waiting to receive it.

      Are you able to track it?

        Not yet. It is strange tracking number ending in XX. I have similar tracking number on aliexpress purchase and the automatic system says it is not trackable. So I suppose it is some cheap untrackable postal service.

        As I said on previous Umi touch post, you have to use the number ending XX in direct link ( http://directlinktrackedplus.com/multipletrack-client2.php ),
        Or just retype the number Q1843848285XX with RE843848285SE.
        (Q1 -> RE, XX -> SE)

          Thanks, I didn’t know that. Still not trackable despite being “shipped” two weeks ago.

          And as I said in the previous Umi Touch post, baloney! It doesn’t work and I quote as follows:
          “Sorry tracking number: Q1833847881XX doesn’t exist”
          “Sorry tracking number: Q1833847881SE doesn’t exist”.

          In any case it would be nice if the reseller would respond to customer inquiries…

        I suppose it is a good prying tool. Easy to break though, I know from experience 😉

      It seems like everyone is a $ 109 buy UMI Touch.

      I have the sensation that they have no intention to ship the phones at that price – just let you get your money back when it does not arrive and then sell the phone for more.
