Main Feature One: MTK6582 Quad Core 1.3GHz
As we know, MediaTek has updated the chips so fast, and most smartphones are MTK6582 Quad core 1.3GHz, and MTK6582 Quad core, which are the latest chipsets, iOcean release this iOcean X8 Mini to aim at the mid-range market, it's a wise move for the company. And i test it to play the 3D games like Nova 3, it's amazing, and fast, the new smartphone is really awesome..
Main Feature Two: 5.0 Inch 1280 * 720 Pixel HD IPS Screen
This time, Iocean also uses the stardard screen size of 5.0inch with 1280*720pixels, as is known to all, large screen size over 5inch is not easy for a slim girl to hold it, or put it in the pocket. However, i got the smartphone, and however i hold it or put it in pocket, it's the best size for me to use it. There is no need for me to worry about the losting of the phone. What's more, i am a fancy phone user, i always use the phone to watch tv lying on the bed. I test it to watch Desperate Housewives, it's nice video viewing. Very clear and nice voice effect.
Main Feature Three: 1GB Ram 32GB Rom
Before i use the smartphone, i have a Samsung Galaxy S3, for the first use, i think it's good, but there is a serious problem that there is always the tip on the screen that your visual storage is almost full, please clear and release more storage. I try to clear them, i still face the same problem, Now this iOcean X8 Mini has RAM 1GB ROM 32GB, i hope i will not face the problem again.
Main Feature Three: 8.0MP Back camera and 2MP Front Camera
When we buy a smartphone, the design is the main features that we care, but as the increasing cognition of esthetics, the camera of a smartphone is playing more important role in our daily life.iOcean X8 Mini has 8MP back and 2MP Front camera with flashlight and auto focus which can help me to use it to take nice photos, do face beauty, and smile shot. I prefre using a smartphone to take pictures. It's more convenient for me to take.
Main Feature Four: Support Google Play Store, Multilanguage
Besides the nice hardware, the other features such as Google Play store, Multilanguage are also very significant,What's more, this smartphone also has google play store which provides more than 70,000 apps for your downloading, another convenience for you is that it supports Multilanguage, which let you use it in your mother tongue freely!
Final Thoughts:
iOcean X8 mini makes me have better users' experience. and it costs me only $164.99! I will still buy smartphones from China.

I also have this phone

Star K550 Review--Doogee DG2014 and Leagoo Lead 1 killer or clone

Recently, i found a very amazing smartphone from China, it's Star K550, when i see the look, i was attracted by the similar look to Doogee DG2014 or Leagoo lead 1. Maybe it looks more similar to the Leagoo lead 1, because they both have 5.5inch IPS screen. Most importantly, Star K550 is much cheaper than leagoo lead 1 and Doogee dg2014.
MTK6582 Quad core 1.3Ghz with low power
Powerful MTK6582, quad core, 1.3GHz processor, high-performance, low-power-cost and perfect system architected, makes the CPU efficiency over two times improved

5.5 Inch 960 * 540 Pixel QHD IPS Screen
5.5inch IPS screen provided you the large viewing or better video watching , even when you play 3D games, you can also enjoy the large screen. QHD 960*540 Screen resolution is also enough for me to watch movies clearly. If it's higher screen resolution, it will be better.
1GB Ram 8GB Rom
In view of the internal memory, the RAM 1GB and ROM 8GB is the standard match for a mid-range smartphone, of course, you can also buy an external TF card to expand your storage. For me, i just install some useful apps in my phone. RAM 1GB is also good for me.
Latest Android4.4 kitkat OS
Latest Android 4.4 KitKat, makes the functions fully optimized and brings safe and convenient using experience. The latest android system is really nice, i must have to say! Run faster, operate much easier.
Dual Cameras with Flashlight
5.0MP front camera, 13.0MP back camera. Support HDR, Panorama, face beauty mode and smiling faces automatically detected.
2200mAh Battery
Star K550 has 2200mAh battery, it can be used for 7--8 hours if i always use it to watch videos. But if i just chat or read some news on it, the standy time is much optimistic. I guess I also can get a backup battery when i go to travel.
By the way, if anyone has got the ROM for it, please share with me. I also want to make my smartphone to update better!

It seems identical to Lead 1 (that I bought) except display model (lower resolution but same inches).
Dido you try to root it? Did you check if OTG works?

- MTK6592 Octa Core 1.7GHz
It is the latest MTK6592 Octa core 1.7GHz smartphone, and as i know Octa core CPU is the highest one compared with quad core, dual core CPU of Mediatek. And i open it to play games, search the Internet to watch videos like Little Pretty Liars. The speed is extremely fast that i can't image. Octa core chipest is remarkable for me!
- 2G Ram 16G Rom
What's more, although ,i got a smartphone of Doogee DG310, i use my brother's phone, iocean x7s-t to download useful apps to store, the storage is really larger than that of mine. I really can't use it up, i think! RAM 2GB and ROM 16GB is awesome!
- 5.0 Inch 1280*720 HD IPS OGS Screen
Fortunately, it's also 5inch HD IPS screen smartphone, as i have said before, it's 5inch, i like 5inch screen, because it's really helpful for me to hold and take. So i am also a fan about the smartphone.
- 8.0 MP Rear Camera 2.0 MP Front Camera
Right now, almost all the smartphones from China are dual cameras, except those which are useful for the older people. This smartphone is a good high-end one with 8.0 MP Rear Camera 2.0 MP Front Camera. I took pictures with them to memorize our sisters' birthday party. The pictures quality is quite good.
- Support Gyroscope, Compass, Multilanguage, 3G, GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth, etc.
About other applications, for example, i just list what i like about these features, it supports GPS, but also Compass and Gyroscope, which guide me during traveling. And when i need the files from my colleagues, i use the bluetooth to receive the data. It's quite fast.
Therefore, i really like this smartphone, although it doesn't belong to me. I will use it and have a good experience for it for some days!

The smartphone maker UMi has uploaded an interesting video on their youtube channel showing how to make power bank in to their latest flagship smartphone UMi TOUCH.
UMi TOUCH is one of the few smartphone pack with a 4000mAh big battery and a nice build body, claiming for a one full day usage for the heavy user and a lighter user can easily have the phone for two days without charging.
Let’s check below video to see how they turn two giant power banks to UMi TOUCH.
From the video, we can see that the UMi Touch will come with a CNC aluminum metal body and curved edges for better grip.
The strength and durability of metal, in a luxurious gold or silver or dark grey, makes UMi TOUCH so irresistible.
All CNC aluminum crafted, ingenious combine a large battery 4000mAh. The front fingerprint scanner sit perfectly on the right spot of the screen.
Seamless, flawless.
Curved all around the edges, makes your UMi TOUCH comfortable grip that feels natural to fit right in your hand.
The other feature of the phone is the front fingerprint scanner that seems like a most-of-flagship must have. Because it seat at the place where our thumb natural rest. Yet it’s unlocking speed is as fast as 0.1S.
As for Camera, UMi TOUCH is using an unique sensor from Sony, the 13MP SONY IMX 328. Include front flash led *at the front 8MP camera and dual flash led at the rear.
Coming to the specs, the UMi Touch flagship comes with an octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM on board and 16GB of expandable storage 128GB. The phone looks large in the video, owing to its 5.5-inch FHD LTPS display which has a better optimization for its battery life. Moreover a vanilla Android 6.0 Marshmallow stock is a plus.

Cool, but I think it is dangerous to make power bank by self.
