Flamingo launched the same time as vapor, vapor just disappeared.
Vapor too used to be very good......
I use Talon more than flamingo. Talon is my to-go...

There is something about talon that doesn't sit well with me, yes the klinker brothers have put in a great deal of work with it but there is something slightly off.

You should try fenix 2 preview(the old version ran out of twitter horrible token limitation, so the developer is building a new one from scratch) as it has been ace so far.

Talon also fell fowl of the token evil, about 2 years ago. But Talon just does it for me. Fenix is looking good, but would explore properly later....

My twitter parade.....

LOL. Yay!!! for Fotmob Pro, no livescore app comes close to it.


Yes, i should have put dash between the live and score.

Really keeps me updated on all my footy scores.

Comes close, but still far from FotMob Pro.....

An app called livescore is on the playstore...

Does Z1 Pro support Glo LTE band 28?

Does Z1 Pro support Glo LTE band 28?

I know it supports 4G LTE but not sure of bands......

Lexusgs430:

Ooh nno!! It doesn't support band 28 (700mhz frequency) from what you displayed

busuyi44:

Ooh nno!! It doesn't support band 28 (700mhz frequency) from what you displayed

How many phones support that outdated band? They did zero feasibility studies when employing that band.

busuyi44:

Possibly, buy this Umidigi Z1 Pro and PORT....

Well most people are not using their crap data services on 3G (hey they might tell you to change to 2G once you lay a complaint)

I mean who uses 2G in this age and time? Terrible network.

Umidigi Z1 - $179.99 (on banggood)
Umidigi Z1 Pro - $279.99 (on banggood)

Now this are truly a bargain.....

Both devices comes with 6/64

Main difference between Z1 & Z1 Pro are :

Super Amoled screen & thickness of device

Passion Red, only on Z1 Pro

Both come shipped with 4000mah

I heard umidigi only manufactured 200 units of the Z1 pro?

I do not know the total quantities manufactured. But the cost of the Amoled screen, was probably too much to bear.......
It makes the Umidigi Z1 Pro (Passion Red), all the more exclusive.......

LOL; Well, I used to have that mindset, until other early adopters (such as dustmalik) on this forum, pointed out that Band 28 has about the best wall/barrier penetration qualities of all the LTE Bands adopted for use in Nigeria, followed, in my own opinion, by Band 8. And in a country where signal strength is mostly at a premium, that factor seemed a no-brainer to me...

I quickly latched on and grabbed Glo's 4G MiFi while it was on a promotion for ₦5k — best investment I've ever made on Glo! Most users — including yours truly — are reporting solid performance on Glo's LTE band every where. I get on it a solid ~ 16-23mb/s (about 2-4MB/s) and about 95% uptime (by my estimation) virtually every where in my crib. So, there you are, Glo actually got this one right, and is handling it well this far.

Of course, Glo's 3G is still crap in my own zone as well, but thank heavens I don't have to deal with that anymore/whenever I have the option of Band 28.

Just to be clear, MTN's 4G services still beats Glo's for speed, but Glo's is better in terms of signal penetration and therefore quality. (I use both.)

(There were some recent reports [which I have not personally verified,] that MTN might have switched off its 4G services in several parts of the country outside Lagos. The service is still solid for me in Lagos. Just thought to throw this bit on MTN in here.)

hmm.. true, make sense.
By the way have you seen this ulephone T1..as in the design is no where different from the Umidigi Z1 duo

Yes, looks very similar. I think this design structure is the design for 2017......

Thanks for the insight.

FWIW I use MTN 4G and it's blazing fast.

Umidigi already sending a patch via OTA. The next update, might be the major update to Android O........

Unfortunately, the above update is got a negative impact on my Umidigi Z1 Pro. Updates are meant to improve but this hopeless update, makes my phone display a white screen,few seconds after reboot.

After full reboot, phone loads correctly, but after about 28 seconds, phone just displays white screen......

Sent Umidigi a message expressing my displeasure.

Trying to wake my Umidigi Z1 Pro up from this update slumber......

Thank Goodness I still have my Umidigi C Note(arise from the gadget bin, come to your brothers rescue) ........

Might have to take a flash to rectify this update anomaly........

Anyone using an Umidigi Z1 Pro, update to this nonsense prompt at your own risk......
