Came back yesterday a d rushed straight to the post office to pick my A5 pro, the device didn't disappoint me. My space grey looked heavenly.
So I peel off the front sticker and fix a screen protector I got from aliexpress and it fits quite well, just a small fraction close to the camera didn't fit but u won't notice it. I put in my sim cards with my trusted Glo line of cos and a 64gb memory card and formated the card as part of phone memory.
I turned it on and an update was waiting for me, updated and did the wireless update too. Am not a camera person so I haven't tried the camera yet. But I go rock am this weekend.
Madam also got her own in the evening so there's finally peace.
The device could be described as beauty and brains cos no lagging at all after installing almost 64 apps sent from my umidigi one.
So for those that cancelled their order and those bad mouthing the brand. We die here.....

Accessories plenty for aliexpress, my screen protector arrived even before the phone sef. So search well, I've even seen magnetic cases, transparent cases and different varieties of screen protector.

Hello House, i need help on how to enable camera2api on redmi note 5ai. I've tried lots of tutorials without any results. Bootloader is unlocked and am on MIUI 10.3.1.0. Pie
amnwa: Oga keep. Quiet there. I love umidigi but you coming here to belittle the money is stupid and nonsense. Even if they paid 10k for it and so? Is it not their money ? So because is 34k , they should now accept whatever garbage they are given. Gtf
Oga calm down, why can all express our points without anger or name calling. Afterall everyone is entitled to their opinion cos na their money Las Las. , Please let's all calm down
pauladonis: Honestly what I'm seeing on YouTube about this device is not encouraging.
First of all, based on the YouTube review: • There are major software issues plaguing the A5 pro... Some of them have been fixed with OTA updates but it's going to require a lot of patience to ignore the software bugs until they are fixed. • The camera output is poorer than some 4th generation iPhones... • You're gonna be lucky if you get an A5 pro that doesn't have screen issues or even dead out of the box.
These are just my findings about the phone on YouTube... I'll still wait for other reviews and maybe see the input of other nairalanders whose orders have been shipped before I make a decision. But if this phone turns out bad, I'll be disappointed.
And, this is what the guy's breathing crystal version looks like. You be the judge.
For a presale order, I think the best way to get an honest review will be when u get ur own device in ur hands. YouTube gives room for everyone to express themselves however they deem fit. They will be good as well as bad, so let's not get it twisted. For me however, until I handl my device I remain of the opinion that this phone is the best budget phone for it's pric and spec. Las Las we die here......
