Before people complain about battery SOT, please ensure your battery is calibrated and also repeat calibration at least, once a month.......

Calibration is not only specific to Umidigi devices, but all devices, if you want to enjoy your batteries performance..............

Like it or not, Umidigi A5 Pro is not a gaming device....... It would play games, but don't expect a donkey to perform like a horse..............

My battery has improved tremendously
Meanwhile the guy that claimed he snapped that his toilet in full darkness lied
I snapped a friend last night at full darkness with only the flash light, she was disgusted. I was ashamed of the output itself.
She even now asked, "how much did I say I buy this phone"? D shame no gree me talk the 70k wey I hype the phone, I just muttered 52k, still d moral low.
The phone cameras and flash light no work at all for night

Heiii!! Jesus, what a million ways to die in Nigeria.

khalidx:
nice shot man �. Whenever you open your camera � go to settings and click on white balance remove it from auto and put it on fluorescent . you won't see those yellow Hue on your pictures again

Ok, thank you

My pictures yesterday.
I think this phone honest rating will be 8/10.
My battery today showed improvement and my calculation means I should be getting about 9hrs even on my 4g.
I watched 1hr55mins 4k Resolution movie yesterday and it only dropped to 80% from fully charged.
The finger print and face detector unlocking is 10/10.

This picture appears blurry here, it was modified to about 20kb from its original pictures of 8mb.
I Wish I can post the original quality here

Alright bro

Saysay01:
I sent both fintiba and coracle a mail this morning concerning the increase in Blocked fund and they responded. They responded.

Is okay, may man rest

Kamps:
Congrats Man

How fa my man?

vivianobas:
Chriswazo, I beg to differ. It was clearly stated in the circular that the new rate will take effect from January 2020 but considering the fact that summer applications will probably commence earlier than the January, 2020 date and applicants likely to start applying for AD early, the kick off was pegged at September 1st which coincidentally will also affect winter applicants that have not gotten AD yet.

I feel anyone that has funded and received confirmation from Fintiba would be okay, provided they unblock before the December 31st deadline.

I suggest that anyone going for interview this week can ask the VO. I will do same next week God willing.

My analysis anyways!

I am not arguing ma, anyhow d want to do it, am fine.

Adhheir:

Eromose08:
But what if we top up after our interview?

We are saying same thing, topping up is the keyword here

SouthHomieMob:
it sounds absurb somehow for u to top up in DE tbh. I aint pass the bar but i know what is legal and what is not. If you do not meet requirement u wont be even allowed to cross border. To add up in DE is quite impossible provided you had your interview before the new rule effects

u just want to argue endlessly now, FYI, someone that i know with a BA confirmation has been asked to top up, her visa upload column which has been showing hitherto, has been withdrawn.

dolpaz:
With this new developement, This is how it´ll span out

If you have done your interview already and awaiting AM, then you´ll likely be affected in many ways.

1) The embassy would likely start giving out visa for Winter from 3rd week of august. the reason is that some schools are still on Summer session and most schools finishes summer by July 31st. and resumes by the 2nd-3rd week in Sept. Hence, you could be asked to resubmit the blocked account with 10k. That means Even if you have submitted your passport and insurance for visa and it spans across sept, you´ll still be asked to resend a blocking confirmation of 10k

2) If peradventure you escape Lagos and land in DE, you can´t escape the 10k unless you come in Before Sept 1, get an accommodation from naija and change your status instantly which I think is very rare. Cos you´ll still have to battle with enrolment, settling down, insurance bills and so on. so, when you go for residency permit extension, as a first-timer in DE, you´ll be asked to resubmit the new blocking confirmation because you would have fallen into the bounded date (Sept 1)

At the moment, I doubt if anyone coming for winter will escape this new development. My advice for anyone and everyone is to have the seperate balance readily available incase of emergency. I know things are tough but with God, all things are possible.

Keep up the spirit guys..


Gemeinsam sind wir starke !

GBAM, more than 99 percent here gets enrolled and settle in Sept, so there is no escaping.

The only people also that has comparative advantage are those that have gotten their passport with visa back from the embassy, we that just have AM just get one leg in and out.

If u can travel to DE without topping up, i believe u can struggle to top it up there even if it means borrowing but it all boils down to a long wait and delay to unblock the BA, hence is more imperative to have adequate extra cash to sustain u temporarily.

Where there is a will, there is a way, some people sef d go without BA on just SL runs and still survive, i believe the later case is better in my own scenario currently.

Thank u bro Dolpaz for coming

SouthHomieMob:
once blocking contract has been issued for the winter semester and you have done d interview. I think you dont need to top it up. will fintiba release two contracts then ?

So we thought, but not until they withdraw your column for visa upload to initiate process for ur BA unblocking, u will now understand the contract does not bound in the event of a change in government regulation. Even the embassy sighting ur BA blocking has the prerogative to reject it based on the dynamics of this new rule

Eromose08:
Are you saying its more advisable to complete it now?

If you have it, is better to top up now.

My understanding of this new BA is that it affects everyone going for winter, let me show u this excerpt

"Government has announced that the minimum amount of money one will have to deposit on a blocked account will increase to €10,236 as of January 2020. This change will be effective as of 1 September 2019 and applies to all student visa applications after this date.

At the same time, this means the amount of money a student is allowed to withdraw every month will increase from €720 to €853 starting from 1 September 2019."

This new rule means that the government has mandated the Block account issuers to pay out 853 euros monthly, and they won't pay less than that, beginning from 1st Sept. This simply means also, everyone that has a BA of 8829 will have to top up to be able to unblock by Sept, it will be made compulsory as i understand.

bjayNL:
There are two sides to it.
I got a blocking confirmation of 8,640. Now the thing has changed to 10,236 and they won't release a blocking confirmation less this amount. Even though in Nigeria it has not taken effect yet. Explaining that to Fintiba is another thing.

Anyway, its all about AD and my testimony is. On the way.

Having a blocking confirmation does not save you if the embassy starts requesting for it. They normally specify the required amount in your AM, it has always been 8640, I guessed later, AM's will carry 10236 or so and you wouldn't send 8640 to them then. The block confirmation itself states the amount u blocked

sassy92:
No what he's trying to say is if you don't get AD, you can't get visa, which means you won't go to DE yet. You'll have to ask Fintiba for your money back amd that's a tedious process. So it's best to wait until you have AD that allows you to meet up with your enrolment deadline before funding your BA. Please and Please those awaiting AD wait until you get a date before funding your account

@bjayNl, read it a 2nd time.

DeutschMariano:
Rejection usually comes within 2 weeks of interview?

yes, most times it will be "conviction on your purpose of study".If you get rejected after 2 weeks, then is irregularities like fake sl, not meeting up the enrollment deadline etc, those ones are technicalities

bjayNL:
1. Any status on AD? Please if you are getting AD let us know, lectures are to start October 1 for me, no AD yet.

2. I booked Cat A as had been before this present change of Cat. I was given a ref number. Some days later Thier site changed to no AD and changed again to Cat B for 2.2.
Please who is in this same shoe, did you cancel?

3. Those booking appointment between 1.15am and 1.20am, any luck on AD?

@JUSTWISE @DUESTCHEMANN seniors in the house.
Helpppp

brother, it has been advised here severally to block account only if u have AD already, don't go and risk your money. I prefer people Block their account when they have gotten AM or had crossed two weeks after their visa interview.

Lexusgs430:
The main problem is, people trying to compare Umidigi with Google pixel, IPhone, Huawei etc etc


No point comparing a Toyota Spider, with a Porsche Carerra Turbo.........

The truth be told......... 70% is a very good score margin.......

yea is good.
We complain because we believe there is a room for improvement, first with the battery and for me, the selfie, to justify her 16mp.

sulasa07:
Are you sure its a5 pro?
1:Is it the follow come camera
2:Snap using the front can
If the above are true,then those complaining about camera,is that not gud enough or are you expecting Huawei p30 pro or Samsung s10+ or IPhone Xsmax camera

And i don't remember seeing any complain about the rear camera, the rear to me is just 9.5/10. Is way good, i decided to snap with it adter service to confirm what i have been posting here this morning.
Mehn, the rear is very sharp

Jidibia:
Lol.... That's why they messed up. The people wey dey produce umidigi camera for this 21st century no get sense at all. Dem no sabi say person go wan take selfie for light abi?

If person price me that your 37k, I go sell too. I no lie.

I repeat, " the phone is above average rating, is still good".
I will give it 7/10 satisfaction rating

mercky1:
I hope not, because it's what they done or are doing already to a3pro

U are still asking?


"Remember I have no role here"

Jidibia:
Check out these selfie photos.
Maybe you might need to get the position right when trying to take selfie.
Photo 1: Normal selfie.
Photo 2: Facial beauty selfie.

Bro the selfie no meet my expectation
Will make do with just the rear.
Ordinary selfie light d no gree put

Jidibia:
The A5 rear camera is very good.

The rear camera is very okay

Jidibia:
Lol..... The issues vary from person to person.
We all die here. All we know is that we ain't giving up on the phone. Maybe subsequent OTA updates will fix the problems.

If they launch their Umi X, I believe their attention will start to shift

The other pros of the phone is the finger print and face unlocking

Jidibia:
Okay sir.

My call quality appears good and your selfie was good in my eyes.
Everyone get his own peculiar problem

So my first trial to take selfie with my phone after service, I am disappointed with her image output. I regret dropping my other phone at home, the rear camera of A5 appears better.
This selfie pictures de do me *delete delete*
This is poo.

Obviously what I still like about this phone is still her beauty and call quality, even her beauty, d decide to hide.

Leagoo kiicaa power front camera 5mp beats this phone A5 pro, is very shameful.
Am typing from my church to show how dissatisfied I am

Jidibia:
With battery saver your battery does not drain again right?
