Xiaomi may be the darling of tech publications when they look to the Chinese smartphone market, but let's not forget that Meizu is the real pioneer of community-centric phone brands. As such, Meizu is sparing no effort to one-up its arch rival with its latest flagship phone, the MX4, as announced in Beijing earlier today. Thanks to the MediaTek MT6595 SoC, we're looking at an octa-core (four 2.2GHz A17 and four 1.7GHz A7) device that can connect to both FDD-LTE and TD-LTE networks right out of the box, thus beating the Xiaomi Mi 4 whose LTE variants aren't due until end of this year. More importantly, the MX4 manages to undercut the 3G-only Mi 4 by about $16 to $33 off-contract, depending on the storage capacity.
Like its predecessor, the MX4's 5.36-inch IPS screen maintains an unorthodox 5:3 aspect ratio, but with a slightly bumped-up resolution of 1,920 x 1,152. Compared to the standard 16:9 smartphones these days, the MX4 benefits from an eye-friendlier home screen as the icons are more spread out, plus the wider body can accommodate a slightly bigger pop-up video player -- a feature on Meizu's Flyme OS 4.0, which is a heavily but prettily customized Android 4.4 ROM -- when you're holding the phone in the usual portrait mode. The screen also takes up 79 percent of the phone's front side and has a narrow 2.6mm bezel, both of which look rather impressive. Meizu added that it's co-developed a screen sealant with Loctite that helps absorb shock impact, in order to reduce the chances of shattering one's screen when the MX4 hits the floor.
Despite the large screen, the MX4 is actually a phone I've enjoyed holding the most in its size category. First of all, it's only 147 grams heavy and 8.9mm thick (yet it still packs a built-in 3,100mAh battery) thanks to its aircraft-grade aluminum body -- one that claims to be harder than that of the iPhone 5s. Secondly, the MX4 carries an ergonomic curvature that's similar to that on the MX3, so there are no edges that would otherwise dig into the palm. To get to the MX4's Micro SIM slot, you can now simply peel off the flexible back cover, as opposed to using a pin to push and peel the hard cover off the MX3. The downside of that is you may feel the seam between the aluminum frame and the plastic cover, so hopefully the final production units will have a tighter fit.
Last but not least, the MX4 packs a 20.7-megapixel f/2.2 main camera and a 2-megapixel f/2.0 front-facing camera. While the latter's resolution is rather disappointing, it does offer a live beautification mode, which lets you preview the enhancements on your eyes, chin and skin before taking selfies. As for the main camera, its 1.2μm pixels will apparently handle dark environments just fine, plus its speedy image signal processor can handle 25 fps continuous shooting in 10-megapixel mode, 720p slow motion capture and even 30 fps 4K video capture. For the icing on the cake, there's a dual tone LED flash for better results when using flash.
The MX4 will be launching on September 20th globally, though only China prices are available at the moment: The 16GB model is just CN¥1,799 (about $290), whereas the 32GB flavor is CN¥1,999 (about $325), and the 64GB model costs CN¥2,399 (about $390). Pretty aggressive, right? And for the record, only the gray edition will be available to begin with, followed by a white edition and a gold edition. Much like the Smartisan T1, you can also purchase a liquid plus screen protection warranty for just CN¥89 (about $15) per year.

Specs:
- 5.5 inch Screen, 1280*720 pixel
- MT6582 1.3GHz Quad core
- Support 3G network: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 & WCDMA 850/2100 MHz
- 1 GB RAM + 16 GB ROM
- 13MP back camera + 3MP front camera
- The latest Android 4.4.2 System
UMi have had an interesting past. After launching the hugely popular UMi X1 a few years ago, the company hit the spotlight again last year with the UMi X2. But since then the UMi candle has been burning low, despite even the launch of the UMi X3.
The problem seemed to be that although UMi could make a capable flagship, they always seemed to produce lack-luster low to mid-range smartphones.
This is all behind them now and a new mid ranger is about to turn the company around. The UMi C1 is based around the chassis of the flagship X3, so you can be sure it is a great looking smartphone, and hardware has been tweaked to make it more affordable.
A quad-core MT6582 processor and 1GB RAM plus Android 4.4.2 are always a good mix when building a powerful phone on a budget. Throw all that in to a great looking steel chassis with 5.5-inch 720p Gorilla Glass display, micro SD card expansion and 13 mega-pixel main camera and it is all looking very peachy.

Great post! So, which ones and how many of these should I be trying to implement? What do you suggest?
Good phone but photo quality is poor and this is not a gorilla glas
Yes this phone is a good phone for the price, but, keep in mind that this phone is not a gorilla glas 3 mobile and that the photo quality is poor, if you want to root it you must use the last Vroot in chinese.

I am satisfied with the photos this phone is making, regarding the gg, putting on the screen protector available in the stock package will solve the issue. One drawback is the hd resolution for a 5.5" screen, this is the only thing i found a bit annoying, FHD could have been way better.

Has anyone noticed that screen randomly turns on and that sometimes you don't have internet access on wifi (this is very noticeable on hotspots which require log in) and then you have to turn wifi off, turn it back on and login again?

Catee CT550 unboxing review--5.5inch dual core android smartphone

Now i got the other smartphone from my Chinese partner, it's Catee CT550, This smartphone is not the high-end one for me. But i still would like to have a good test of it. In order to let you know more real feelings about this smartphone and let you purchase right, i will introduce this smartphone from the following parts.
Pros:
5.5 Inch 960* 540 Pixel QHD IPS Screen

In this large-screen smartphone times, many smartphone manufacturers have created more phones with giant screen to attract more attention from the users, and this one is also in large screen. It sports by 5.5inch QHD IPS screen with 960* 540 Pixel screen resolution, although it's not HD or FHD smartphone, it's proper for me to watch videos in nice screen quality. So this is the one feature i should compliment.
MTK6572 Dual Core 1.3Ghz
Dual core smartphone didn't prevail now, but for those who such as elderly people are not used to quad core or octa core smartphone, this one is enough for them to use. So this smartphone has the clear customers' position. And i have tested the speed, it's not so bad, playing games or searching the Internet is good, but if you don't need your smartphone to play large 3D games, this one is so far , so good.
5.0MP Rear Camera
I am the one who like to take pictures by smartphone, not the digital camera, although digital camera has better picture quality and larger storage. But i am really satisfactory to use my phone to take photos, this one has 5mp back camera, which i think it can meet my needs to take pictures.
Support 3G Network, multilanguage, GPS and other practical application
As a good smartphone, the hardware is very important, but also the well-performed apps, now this one can support dual sim card, dual standby, and i can use freely about 3G network. Meanwhile, GPS is also my nice partner to guide the road for me. and i can also set up the mother tongue by this smartphone which can support multi-language.
2200mAh Battery
I use it for watching videos for about 3 hours, the battery has used 40%, i think it makes me feel good. I don't have to charge my phone every 4 hours, because i bought a samsung smartphone, the battery makes me really sad.
Very competitve price
You may be interested in the price, and i tell you it only costs $82.99 from China for free shipping. It has a very sound price for me. So other features seem not to be important now!
Cons:
RAM 512MB and ROM 4GB
This one only has RAM 512MB and ROM 4GB, if it were larger, i would like it more. I really recommend it can update to a larger storage.
0.3MP Front Camera
This one supports 0.3MP front camera, i think it should be improved, if i take pictures myself, it's not so clear.
In all, this one is a dual core smartphone which is full of competition in price and looks. I feel good. How about you?

Xiaomi Mi4C Is Official With Snapdragon 808, 3GB RAM & an Amazing Price Tag

Back when Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi Mi4i flagship in India, Chinese users felt a bit left out. The device was good in looks as well as specs and the local market could have used a device like the Mi4i. But little did they know that Xiaomi had something even better for its domestic market, and a few minutes back, it made the Xiaomi Mi4C flagship official. Just like the previous leaks and rumors predicted, the Mi4C flagship will be much better in terms of specs and value than its international brother, the Mi4i. I am sure after seeing the specs and the pricing of the new device, Chinese users will be delighted for sure. So, without wasting any more of your time, lets take a look at what this amazing device has to offer.

Looks wise, there’s hardly anything changed in the new Xiaomi Mi4C. You get the same smooth back finish with a strong rectangular body as its international brother. While this may sound a bit simple, especially in a market where metal bodied smartphones are preferred, the company compensates this clean look with its numerous color offerings. You can choose between five different colors according to your liking, including yellow, white, pink, blue and black.
But this is where the major similarity ends. Under the hood, the Xiaomi Mi4C comes with the much more powerful Snapdragon 808 . On the other hand, the Mi4i had the slower Snapdragon 615. This is a great move from Xiaomi since 808 will ensure the fastest performance in its price segment, which is exactly what the MT6795 powered Redmi Note 2 did . There are two version of the Mi4C, one with 2GB RAM and 16GB of storage while the othe r with 3GB RAM and 64GB of storage. With Adreno 418 GPU and the above specs, the Xiaomi Mi4C manages to score much better than competitors in the price range. According to the benchmark score revealed by the company in the presentation, the Mi4C managed to score about 57K on AnTuTu , which is even better than MX5 and Huawei P8. Clearly, you won’t be disappointed with the phone’s performance.
The display will be of 5-inches with full HD 1080p resolution . It is said that the Mi4C’s display will be 20% slimmer than traditional panels. The company has compared its size with the recently announced Apple iPhone 6S. As you can see, the dimensions are almost the same as the 6S, despite having a slightly larger display. Also, Xiaomi has made sure that the bezels are quite thin, making it around 30% thinner than average smartphones.
The company has also paid special attention to the Mi4C’s camera. The phone comes with a 13MP Sony IMX258 rear sensor with PDAF . This should ensure great images with fast focus. What’s more, the company has upgraded the algorithm to ensure that low light photos come out bright , with more detail and less noise. You can check out the image below to see how it works in real life.

Camera:
This device comes with 13 MP Primary camera with single LED flash and 5 MP front facing camera. Both cameras capable of taking impressive shots, the images taken by this phone good detailing and clarity. But in indoor/low light scenario captures images shows slightly noise however, it can capture decent images in low lighting conditions. The overall camera quality good enough to considering in this price point.
Design & Build Quality:
The Le1s sports all metal body, device feels pretty premium in hands, but also feels little bit heavy, it’s only because of its metal built body, but no problem it is not a big issue, overall it feels pretty slim. The back panel of the smartphone is non removable, means you cannot remove the battery from the device, which is a good point.

The hardware specs itself explained that how much powerful the device is, so really without wasting any time let us discuss about it. Overall experience with this device is pretty good or we will say very responsive, we have done lot of multitasking and phone feels smooth. In terms of gaming we challenged the device with industry’s most powerful to most popular small games like, subway surfers etc, as we expect small games runs very smoothly in this device, also when we tested some of the best graphic intensive games, it feels smooth too, in this device we have played Asphalt 8, NOVA 3, Injustice, Six guns, they are very fluent, to be fair we haven’t noticed any lag with the device.
Verdict:
LeEco Le 1s is a well performer, it is very smooth in terms of browsing experience. The device is well performing in all most every section, like we have tested some Games and we didn’t notice any lags. The daylight performance of the camera was awesome, in other words the device feels damn premium. If you want a beast in your pocket, and want to show off within your budget, then this is for you.
