One of the most important aspects of your smartphone if probably the camera performance. Indeed according to a Chinese survey, 88% of customers check out the camera before purchasing a phone.

Going into specifics on the camera department, we have a 21MP rear shooter and a 16MP front-facing camera. Elephone now say that after half month of software optimization the Sony IMX230 image sensor can capture much better photos, with better exposure, more vibrant colors and overall better images in low light situations. The camera app also allows you to shoot photos with the bokeh effect if you so desire.

Here are some photos shot on the Elephone P8:

    12 hours of video playback?? This battery seems to be well optimised. What about the built quality of this device?
