LG G6 is still an all round better phone. Do u know this phone has a terrible camera? For over $400 the camera is a disgrace. Below is an honest review from someone that has used it for over one month and not just unboxing review.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KK6LD4c0YHQ
Do you hear what the guy said he said it not a terrible camera it just an average camera and the front shooter is good, am not compete the camera with S8 or am i saying the phone is better than S8 so what the problem here, do you hear all the great things the guy said about the phone the only let down is the average back camera so I think am justified with this video that means the phone is great apart from the average back camera and mind you no phone (I can't say of the S9 yet) ticked all the box and without any flaw, S8 have a wrong positioned fingerprint sensor and lack dual camera set up too. Am happy the phone have only one flaw.

Haaaaaaa can't you read simple English or you lacks comprehension ability because I stated it clearly over 5 times already that this is not a competition between U pro and S8, I even state it legibly that S8 is better then why are you still saying all this irrelevant things? And mind you if you want to talk about something please know much about it VR is common this days even with midrange phone it requires gyroscope so many phone now have it including U pro too.
HDR mode in camera is also a common feature among phone too and its getting archaic already because portrait mode, bokey mode is now the trend.
Clarity in sunlight did you bother watching any video on U pro at all?
Headphone Jack that are fast disappearing in phone this days.
S8 is better actually even if you want to counter a motion do so with a good point not all this gibberish you spitting headphone jack, brightness in sunlight, HDR, VR those are shit point.

So what is the Koko gangan here? That we should agree with u that this phone is the best phone in the world? U just don't seem to get it. This phone is a very good phone no doubt, if it retails for $250-300 then it would have a very good buy for many people. But when very small Chinese company makes a phone with specs not as good as oneplus 5 and sell it for almost same price. This is a very good mid range phone that is priced close to LG g6 which is a top of the line flagship phone. That is where the problem is. Brand name comes to play here. If Mercedes Benz makes a sports car and sell it for $100,000 and then Kia makes the exact same car and sell it for $90,000 which do u think people will buy? I can guarantee u that Mercedes unit will sell 80 units before anyone would even consider the Kia. But if the Kia is sold for like $50,000 then it will give people a reason to wanna try it out.

I can see you know nothing bout phone...not HDR mode on camera duh...I meant HDR+ compliant for watching Netflix and Amazon videos..Bro I give up...You never buy the phone and you're like this...mind you I use s8plus and LG v20 so I know what I'm talking about...buy the phone first before you start talking...

So why did you write HDR? and now changing it to HDR+ are you that confused? You used S8 plus? I can see why you are defending the phone like your life depends on it with daft point. See am not elephone and its not their fault either that they produced a device cheaper and it still manage to compete with your Almighty S8.

Re: Why Is Elephone U Pro So Underrated? by fibonacci2526: 9:17am On Apr 22, 2018
Op even all the tech tubers who reviewed this phone are saying it is overpriced. To think they are rumored to launch a device with sd845, they would price it close to $800.

They should learn from Oneplus, that is the way to gain market share, start out with low price. Build and win confidence, then slowly increase the price with every launch. But wetin I Sabi. lolll.

For a supposed "flagship", the company are not even advertising this model again, they have moved on to another phone.

I swear I get the point because being a starter and not a proven performer in the smartphone market that price is a bit high but some are guys are saying you can get a better phone for the same price is what I against because their isn't, and as you can see they have turned this to Samsung S8 vs elephone U pro.

LG G6 is not better than this phone but just because its LG doesnt makes it better check their spec out and see it beats G6 most, Oneplus 5T is better but not in the same price category, Xiaomi note 3 is not better check the spec again and compare them imagine if it is one ulephone or umidigi that put the same spec of G6 on it's phone who you say its better? but anyway you sees it I agree with you.

Is that all?

Flagship phones come with snapdragon 800 series or equivalent, qhd display and they have flagship camera. Also water resistant has become standard these days. This phone is not a flagship phone, I'm glad u aknowedge that so no point comparing it with flagship phones.

Now whether it's better than galaxy note 5 is subjective. The note 5 doesn't have the infinity display because it's a 2016 flagship, but it still has a better display and better camera. And it's got the s pen which no other phone maker has been able to replicate. Elephone u pro is sold for around 147k on jumia while galaxy note 5 is sold for around 168k. LG G6 is sold for around 140-170k. Will I buy an elephone for 147k? Bleep NO. I'll rather add 20k and buy a galaxy note 5 or LG G6 and have rest of mind. At least I know I'm buying from a trusted brand. Oh and LG G6 has the modern infinity display, water resistant, p oled qhd display, snapdragon 821, dual camera that is better than the elephone. So just give me one reason why I will risk 147k to buy this elephone. I can't go to the market to get it's case or screen protector, if I break the glass I will have to order for it. Is it worth it? Well if there are no better alternatives maybe, but it's got better alternatives with parts available.

Oga Ade how is this phone better than LG G6. Just tell us and stop talking trash. I use LG v20 and that phone is a beast, my next phone will be LG v30. Is it the display, processor, camera or features like water resistance? Give me a reason u think this chinko phone is better than LG G6. If u don't have s reason then don't reply.

Omo I just weak. Just look at the yeye camera they put on the phone with /f2.2 aperture with no OIS. wtf were they thinking? That's the camera found on mid range tecno phones. LG G6 has f1.8 aperture while galaxy s8 has f1.7 aperture. Even 2016 note 5 has f1.9 aperture. These are the normal for flagship cameras.

Getting carried away by shiny chinko phone. If we talk he will say we hate the phone just because we are stating the fact. If he thinks we hate it then we can also agree he hates the Galaxy s6, note 5, OnePlus and LG G6. That's a lot of hate.

Flagship phone Is all about the material used but not the output perform right? phone being a flagship doesn't means it uses high spec but the performance of the phone, when tecno, infinix are using 21 MP Samsung is using 12MP and the 12 MP is way better than the 21 on the tecnos that will tell you it the output that determines flagship not spec sheet.
U pro is ahead G6 with; Face recognition, Better RAM and ROM, Cornillar gorilla 5, better design, Latest OS, better battery, please can you list why LG G6 is better?
Note 5 is no where near this phone who tell you Note 5 have better display? watch those reviews again because some the YouTuber even say it even comparable to Oneplus 5T.
And about the better camera part until you compare both side by side you can't say that because no fact to back that.
For you to say you'd pick Note 5 ahead U pro settled the matter. no more debate I agree with you.
