For those in need of the Leagoo Kiicaa power review, I'll write my review of the Kiicaa Power.


Unboxing/body build: Coming out of its pretty basic cuboid box, the leagoo kiicaa power isn't your exact budget killer looking device. I mean, it has the rear fascia well covered; nicely textured back cover, pleasing dual camera set-up plus a conventional dual led flash that isn't dual-tone, with a 'smart bokeh camera expert' stunt move. Ugh. I pulled the back cover open and i began to observe why this phone was ludicrously cheap and ought to be cheaper, the back case unclipped in the worst way possible, i thought I'd break it if i had yanked a little bit harder.
Now the front fascia. Deary me!. The phone looked tasteless while in front of me. I worked it and worked it to find something that'll please me right in front, i didn't find even one so, i settled for the Navigation keys look. To be honest, the front looked to simple and traditional, even a 2.5D arc glass would have done some justice but i guess the OEM was paying too much attention on the price than the fascia...
The weight is somewhat pleasing however it doesn't justify the choice of dirt-cheap material most of which are the real essence of its light weight.

Verdict: I would have passed this as being modest in the early months (Q1) of 2016 but weight really felt good in hand. To me, it hasn't really much going for it in terms of aesthetics or build.



Display: SOMEBODY, PLEASE GET THIS PHONE A PACK OF CRAYONS!!!.. This isn't a hate review...please take cognisance of that. The 720p on 5" is mediocre at best, failing in many aspects but one - it is really a 720p and that's it. The panel used on this phone is deplorable for a 720-res, i was utterly shut up when i placed this side by side to my oukitel c8 which touts a 640p display on a 5.5"... The color temperature is neutrally cold hence the white is white-ish not blueish. I only found the 720p res useful when i toned down font size to about 600 in terms of screen width and the phone was able to produce readable tiny texts. Hallelujah.. To get a better looking picture quality of the screen, you'll need to use enough brightness on the phone to accentuate the mildness of color as exhibited by the underwhelming panel... Too many cheap stuffs... Take it from me, Leagoo sent a Nigerian to do the screen panel shopping. Trust me, I know.

Verdict: A 2.5D arc glass would have offer a more positive rendering as compared to the plain glass digitizer... I'll have to say that the screen suffers from the bells and whistles of having a HD display.



PCB/RAM/ROM/Performance: Are you feeling fly using this 60$< device, you should, for a budget device, yeah one should feel glad that he/she is getting enough value for money. I can say categorically that this is where the phone has more than 80% of its price well spent on. It offers a 2Gb ram and 16Gb internal storage (Software issue allows it to show that Apps have used more than 10Gb however the reverse is the case. A SW update, when rolled out, should fix it though). It further goes on to win praises for its use of a MTK 6580A and not a dual-core spreadtrum processor... Thank Thee Leagoo!. The performance of the phone is just around its contemporaries, nifty (not snappy), less of a lag-house if you are doing it moderate with the number of killer apps and games. Need i mention the fingerprint sensor, on my product, i wished it hadn't been included cos it fails to recognize at EVERY first attempt, subsequent attempts prove abortive/successful in say 50/50 so, it is one of the most compromising feature on the phone. At least to me.


Verdict: KUMBAYA! Leagoo gave me a reason not to help them descend the price to less than 40$ with the magnanimity of the offering at the heart of the device. Plenty of storage (for its price), Twice the expected Ram volume (again. at this price) and a good cluster of 4 processors @ 1.3GHz... If i could trade the Fingerprint sensor with OTG feature, a Notification led and a front flash. I happily would.



Features/Features/Features: No miravison, No OTG with the high and mighty 4KmAh Li-ion battery, There is less than a handful of features that can be handpicked. I searched and all thanks or no thanks to Stock Android Nougat, most of the phone's features are dependent on what google had incorporated with its SW. I love the customization that is offered with Google AOSP keyboard though.



I wouldn't say much about it's battery... it is another selling point, i won't touch the cameras (they could have been praised if they'd called 'em a dual 3.12mp shooter) the eyes of this device are vision-less, only good for shooting masquerades or sands in the beach or the number plate of a stolen vehicle. I do find however that led flash complemented still pictures well, providing better saturation and depth. I have zero interests in bokeh.....





Phew, i rushed things towards the end... bear with me... I'll correct grammatical errors and modify as i find worthy things too.... Thanks for reading.
You're wuked, but nice review grin I'm a fan of budget phones and will gladly pick leagoo Kiicaa Power over Tecno Spark K7. Leagoo needs to consider the African market.

Hw Many Hours Does It Take To Charge Fully

To charge from 0-100%
Takes at least 4 hours

30% = 1 Hour
Very annoying,

And if u are chargeing ur fone and Browsing, it won't even move, you need to off ur data & leave it to charge.

Because wise people use chargers with more amp. The average Nigerian has at least 2 chargers.

The phone has a real 5" display.
Screen sizes of digital displays are measured diagonally so it is possible to have two 5" phones with unequal length and width. This is only effected by the aspect ratio though.

SMH, The Phone came with a 1.5A Charger, I used my Infinix 2A & 3A charger , the phone was still charging slowly.

The manufacturers never manufactured the phone to charge fast like my former phone Infinix Note 2.

On full charge it can last for almost 8-9 hours.

But it charges very slowly that's why am not happy with the phone
U can try a powerful charge, I try charge it with my boss huawe G-Power chager and it charge very fast. I think the charger strength is low to the battery strength

Sure there are generic glass protectors that can fit the kiicaa power. Generic are cheaper coz they fit plenty phones.. This was made specifically for the Kiicaa, hence the more expensive. Buy anyone you can afford

It's not my device, also advised the owner to fix a protector, but she later removed it claiming it was blocking her speakers.

besides this phone went through a lot before it actually stopped responding to touch.

Is the display still in tact? If yes, you only need to change the touch screen/digitizer. It's $7.80 on AliExpress. This the link. Nairaland will edit it , so quote to see full link
