This is a quick unboxing of the Billion Capture+ 3GB/32GB variant

You can find the full spec sheet on gsmarena but here's what I know:

OS 7.1 (which feels pretty much like stock android than a customized OS, not much bloatwares)

It has 3GBs of RAM (the RAM performs well, multitasking between apps was smooth and lag-free, I had about 7 & above running in background but most of them were not heavy apps sha)

32GB internal storage (24GB or so available, the rest is for app storage partition; system partition)

Snapdragon 625, 2.0GHz processor speed and Adreno 506 GPU (I didn't put any games on it yet but I know it should be able to play most HD games and even IF some lags, it will only require settings tweak to make them run fast by reducing graphics and etc.)

Dual nano/SD card tray (strong iron type not plastic)

It has a USB type-C port with also a 3.mm audio jack (which is rare with some USB type-C device out there, like my Le Leeco x526 )

The speaker is placed at the bottom and gives good sound, but the earpiece sound is quite impressive (it doesn't come with an earpiece o)

It has a 1080x1920 resolution display with 403 dpi (I must say here that the display really got me cos it looks very sharp, colours are bright and vibrant, it's simply a beauty to behold)

Also with 5.5 inches display you get to have a great browsing and gaming experience for the lovers of 5.5" screen and above (like me, LOL)

It has a great body body, feels premium, looks premium...worth the buck (but guess what it's cheaper than your average must-not-be-named devices out there flooding Nigerian markets, anyhoo not my 'konsain' cos I don't buy them)

It has a dual camera at the back, placed at the top left edge (13MP)
and an 8MP front facing camera.
Here's the gist of how it performed, the back camera did really well indoors by showing exact room lighting, it also has a quick autofocus that got me saying WOW repeatedly (I'm not saying it's the best camera o but it does really well, and trust me it will make you say WOW too)
While the front facing camera does well too, it just doesn't compare to the back. i might need to take picture samples and compare later with my Le Leeco 2 (x526) (why that? it's what I have close to me for now, I might add others sha if I see)

Moving on the 3500mah is very good, had me going close to 15 mins before it dropped 1% from 100, yeah it's new buh you can't deny it's okay for such unknown brand (Billion)

What else sef? Hmmmmmmmmm...lemme just conclude here that if you have been contemplating to buy the device, just do yourself a favour by calling nenergy today for a superfast delivery of one (and if you're in Lagos then you're in luck). For those who haven't seen or heard about it before, well you just did.

It's not my personal copy but drop me comments on what else you would like to know and I will see if we can work things out.

Yeah the guy is good

Billion is not an unknown brand ooo...it is owned by flipkart(India's biggest online shopping app) ...
I can remember it giving mi a1 for good run then..
Btw...you didn't tell us how much you bought it

Android 7.1 and all at big big bezels in 2019? I can understand why it is cheap. This phone is old school, that doesn't mean it's not well built though.

its a 2017 phone

MeshachMARTINS:

That is why u are able to get it cheap. It probably would never receive a software update and the design is so outdated . Around 27k on jumia, very good for a phone with such specs. Love that it has a 1080p display (infinix are still using 720p display in their new s4 and want me to pay 65k for that nonesense).

How much is it?? Ryfoz

yea

From the specs i can say the phone is Twin Brother of XIAOMI MI A1 but cost about 71dollars on Aliexpress store AND very good postive users reviews,please is it available on JUMAI NIGERIA.

A good write up @ryfoz but the design is a little bit old fashioned but the processor is something outstanding compared to craps infinix and tecno are giving us for huge amount of money.
