Ulefone Tiger - Layman Summary by donpata(m): 2:05pm On Sep 03, 2017
Specs - 5.5" screen (gorrila glass 3), 8mp Camera (double flash), 5mp front cam, 4glte (not tested cos I dont need it), 2gb ram, 16gb ROM, finger print, 4200mah battery.

Summary.
1. Price (10/10) - 31k bought mine 2ru Jumia for 30.5k+1.2k shipping.
2. Camera (6.5/10) - I think it's good for the price but the pix at night ain't as clear as that of infinix hot note which is Abt it's range. Well I ain't a camera freak so I care less Abt it.
3. Battery (8/10) - It is non removable. It stays Abt 14 hrs on 3g with almost constant internet usage. However on 2g or when data usage is restricted, it last over 30hrs. On average, it loses 10-15% per hr for videos (depending on screen brightness) and 7% per hr for music. (Note that my phone is almost constantly on 3g). It also has a notification led light at the top of the earphone but I noticed a bug that keeps the light on sometimes even when charger is disconnected.
4. Display quality (7/10) - the display quality is nice for the price range. Just that its difficult to see in bright daylight. Normally, I have to increase the brightness to over 70%.
5. Speakers (8/10) - well its not an mp3 player or those naija chinko that can scream. But sound output is great enof for its cadre.
6. Network connectivity. - (9/10) network is stable. Browsing speed is also fast. I haven't tested the 4g though cos I dont actually need it. 0
7. Design (7/10) - its curved at the edges which is nice. The back cover is partly plastic but 80% of it is brushed aluminum which makes it look very nice. The back cover is very difficult to open.
8. Finger print (8/10) its fast but sometimes needs me to try 3rice b4 it responds. (Actually my prints are very hard to capture even with conventional sensors)
9. Operation (7/10) - i can't say if it lags per se. But when I open games like fifa, the movement of the characters is slightly slowed down. Like a "fast slow motion" lol. Am not a techy guy so can't say. But for lagging, it does not "hook" or hang no matter the nos of apps I open. I don't know its 64bit processor helps here.
10. Memory (7/10) Only Abt 11gb is allowed for the user.
11. Rooting had to be by flashing. Its android 6 so apk root dosnt work.
12. Ui: (4/10) I haven't used android 6 so can't say if its the generic Google stuff. I think there is little customization by Ulefone. The fact that the phone has no ultra power and nothing to show Ulefone worked on it is not nice.

13. Accessories: (5/10). Only a 2pin charger is attached though it came with a 3pin adapter. It also has a screen protector (not glass) already attached. No otg cable, no earphones, no pouch. Probably to keep the price low

This is a mediocre review I think. But overall, for just 31k I think I give the phone 8/10.

Well detailed, I love that.

But the phone tho, I will still not buy it, cos of my past experience with unpopular Chinese brands.

It's either Xiaomi or no other if I must patronize China.

There are good products. Xiaomi is the apple of China. But one plus and meizu robs shoulder with xiaomi. Fact is, b4 u get any phone, look for reviews abt that particular product. We have heard of Samsung and iphone phones exploding. I initially wanted to purchase leagoo m8pro but I saw the reviews were bad. I checked the Ulefone tiger and saw no significant complains. I then took the leap.

Ok. thanks for the reply. The calibrator spoilt too soon. Does it mean the phone isn't durable or were you at fault?
