The CTIA Super Mobility convention is currently under way in Las Vegas and all the manufacturers and enthusiasts concerned about the wireless and mobile technologies are active there.
Of course the chinese don’t want to be left behind either so Ulefone are showing the Power, Future and Metal models there and even some of the mysterious upcoming models. Following the suit of Samsung or Apple they are working on a waterproof phone and some other device, which should have once again a monster battery capacity like Ulefone Power previously.
Gizchina News of the week
Ulefone are also trying to explore the possibility of expanding their distribution network with more offline sales, because based on the numbers from last year the offline sales are attributing only for about 20 % of the total sales. So room for improvement is certainly there so let’s see what they can come up with.
An x20 power 2 with a decent camera would be a nice thing, and it shouldn’t be impossible because oukitel was working on something similar with a release date of october, so it’s totally possible… Waiting for it, although cool1 dual has me almost sold…
wow a fellow waiter on the k6000 premium i have the thing in my bookmarks XD and the other day i watched over the youtube video showcasing its model XD
Yup, still waiting for that… But I knew right from the start it would come out by the end of the year, so I’m not searching anything about it: don’t want to feed up the hype too soon ?
any dual cam reviews for the cool1 dual !?

Check this guy’s channel, he makes good reviews ans comparison
thanks man !
nice review and looks like a really swell guy too ? !
im gonna request umi max review!
Yeah, that guy knows how to test devices, and doesn’t get stuck with the “meh, it’s not samsung s7” like other reviewers
too bad he won’t review umi max tho..
It wasn’t worth your money anyway, so not much of a big deal: you can see plenty of reviews for super that is basically the same phone!
On the other hand, today he published cool1’s review… Spoiler: it’s an heck of a phone ?
lack of SD card slot tho ….
where you gonna store all those memorable pics when the memory runs out :/ ?
Don’t know… On a pc maybe? Perhaps I actually have a non-expandable 32gb phone, and have like 1300 pics, many downloaded images and gifs, music, apps and movies… And I’ve yet to run out of space! ? when I’ll have space problems, I’ll probably just move the pics on a pc and delete the worst ones… Maybe I’ll buy a micro-usb pen and move something on that one using otg too…
Anyway, I’ll probably wait for the 4/64gb version of this cool1 and decide afterwards what to take
oh .. right
never thought about that !
how much does the cool1 cost at its CHEAPEST ?
Kimovil. com is your friend ?
Right now it’s around 180$, but that’s because pre-sales are still going or just ended… Once the phone becomes available everywhere and the other versions are out, the price will stabilize
i’ll take it if it falls to $140 …
ofc i’ll have to earn money first. and still have to figure out how much damn tax do the Pakistani customs apply on Smartphone imports
@disqus_hFOS6jWFnn:disqus , i’d just like to know or rather confirm with you … is the DUAL rear cam TRULY amazing ? i mean i saw the video review and everything but are the Bokeh effects truly as amazing (im looking to fool and amaze some of my friends with the cam , mistaking it for DSLR 😛 )
also , is the selfie cam good enough ? im going to some university events in the coming time and would like to know if the selfie cam is amazing !
I’m not going to lie: no smartphone is going to be a on DLSR level anytime soon, we simply don’t have the technology to build anything like that into a space so small.
I’d like to have and test the device first hand in order to tell you whether the camera is really amazing or not, but… For now, everything we have are reviews, and it’s hard to tell. What I can actually say is that the camera looks very good, maybe not on 800$ phones level, but you’re not paying 800$ either. Let’s say: this year the thing that impressed me the most is htc m10, and this doesn’t look on the same level, but doesn’t look like 700$ behind either.
But both aren’t on the same level of a DLSR, and no phone is. Still, the thing is that you don’t need to have a pricy piece of kit in order to amaze who’s looking: if the pic you shoot is amazing, it’s going to speak for itself… I did myself nice pics with my phone, which is good but not great: still my friends commented that the pic was amazing, because what I portrayed was amazing itself, not because of megapixels, dynamic range and shite.
As for the front camera, reviews say it’s good, but I don’t know: I really don’t give a faq about selfies ?
“I really don’t give a faq about selfies ?”
but but … i DO! you don’t know how important selfies are here :p !
nice analysis btw … you’re right , we can’t have DSLR , but i just want to amaze some people with the Bokeh effect … you might know how important it is 😀
They say selfies are good… I really can’t judge! In the worst case, the fingerprint scanner looks very reflective: you can mirror yourself there and shoot with rear camera! ? (in 2000’s it was a common thing, nokia used to have something chromed on the back of every flagship).
However, the bokeh is there, it’s not perfect but perhaps they’ll improve it over time!
lol that mirror idea tho …
well , i’ll see how the cool1 evolves in terms of software..
I’ll do the same, perhaps cuoco92 will do his usual magic with letv’s custom rom ?
all the best to ulefone a decent brand in my books
yeah .. glad to see they woke up !
BeTouch4 with DUAL CAMS would be AN EPIC REVELATION !
XD dat revelation
im just hyping man …
but either way
(i) either Ulefone have taken a break from making a FULL ON Flagship and are following a relatively SAFE and CONSERVATIVE Business model now …
OR
(ii) This is the Calm before the storm. Their big-wigs are busy trashing out a deal with Qualcomm for the 821 CPUs in mass stock , JDI for top notch 2k Panels , Samsung for high speed RAM modules and Foxconn for Type C , Sony for the dual cam shipments and some company for UFS storage to act as ROM 😀
hell , they might even be in talks with some company for the Ultrasonic Fingerprint sensors !
Expect the unexpected my friend !
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD boy do i hope, i also hope the cubot s9 is still happening XD the ulfeone future had many issues hopeully they can do a better flagship.
Ulefone and Doogee was the biggest joke in CTIA…. winners were SKY, POSH and NUU.
more details … this statement is vague and unconvincing
Seems Ulefone is trying to make a comeback again.
But you gotta accept that all the models looks quite similar. Make changes. Do experiments.
After sales service must be improve before expanding the market.
Isn’t so bad company!
too many models like the other company such as Umi, Elephone, Doogee… too fragmentation and bad support!
I think that they should improve the quality of products!!
Expanding their market means they are making profits! It is also time to invest in quality and performance.
If they want to fly on the market, they have to understand that customer satisfaction must be put on first place!
This is what the people is looking for, the certainty that a product doesn’t do strange surprises…… good !!
Really nice, i wish i could visit it haha
fun and really nice way to interacts with community and show off current and upcoming projects
any plans for future visits in other places?
Aw, what a bummer, come to Europe next time!
what’s even the point? should have invested money in the quality rather than this
I hope they’ll offers more and better models …
