Looks like same base, but case could be slightly larger. It looks like it lost the volume button. Apparently many colors should be available. It has the same camera placement as KKM2 Pro.
I still wish they'd do more about it, like reduce bezels, make it square thick (feels thinner). Unfortunately they are stuck with battery hungry OS, that is used on phablets.

what software did you use do draw CNC dimensions?
i really don't think it will be 116 mm tall. kkm is 119 mm, and this looks taller.

sorry, have no idea about the software used for it, i took this picture from 4pda forum
but comparing to kkm bezels and assuming same display's size i see the top bezel is lesser than kkm one and others are pretty same
lets wait till launch

release date for cubot pocket - june 18
upd launch on may 20

Overview and specifications (only partial for now) of the new Cubot Pocket.
Height : 119 mm. :-(
Where is the impovement compared to the KKM / KKM2 ?
The latest model of 2022 (Pocket) has the same form factor and the same screen as a rugged phone of 2019 (KKM) !
Come on, Cubot ! The viewable screen you use measures 90.9 * 45.4 mm (my calculations. I don't own a KKM / KKM2). With the same screen, you can create a phone that would be 100 * 52 mm (screen to body ratio : 79 %. Nothing exceptional).

Improvements: better CPU, more memory, better looks. Good enough for me. The way to think of it is kkm3 with a less polarizing design.

CPU is better?
Being Unisoc, is it more secure, open source? 64 or 32/64 binder.

Better cores, still 4 though.

Hello !
Cubot's website said that the screen was "4.0 Inch QHD+".
QHD means "Quad HD". The same as 1440p or 2560*1440 pixels.
The "+" means wider ratio (e.g. 2880*1440 pixels if length is twice the width, like the KKM / KKM2).
But Cubot lied.
Cubot now sells the Pocket on AliExpress.
This gives one more specification : the number of pixels.
It is in fact 1570*720 pixels. This is HD+, NOT QHD+.
I don't like liars, but this is enough pixels on a small screen to my taste.
The problem is that Cubot now uses a 2.18x length/width ratio on the Pocket (1570*720 pixels), resulting in a 56.7 % screen ratio, when it used a 2x (or 18/9) length/width ratio on the KKM and KKM2 (1080*540 pixels), resulting in a 59.8 % screen ratio.

But in fact, it is worse than that : the rugged phone of 2019 (KKM) had a BETTER screen to body ratio as the brand new Pocket !
What a disappointment !

they have same line in specs for kkm2 with 1080x540 and i was pretty sure this is absolutely (and unfortunately) same display
and they've just updated specs at ali shop, no worries xD

True ! They just updated the specifications !
Maybe they read us !
1080*540 is fine to me. It is more than enough at 302 PPI.
A screen with smaller pixels would require more processing power, but human eyes wouldn't see the difference.

Cubot, if you read us : please make a smaller phone with the same screen.
100 * 52 mm with the same screen should be within reach.
You could even make a smaller phone if you use a screen with round corners.
People who buy 4 inch phones do so because they want a small phone body ; not for the "pleasure" of a small screen. But in the actual lineup, the smaller the phone is, the bigger the borders (and the worse the screen to body ratio) are !

The Cubot Pocket is powered by a Unisoc Tiger T310.
According to CPUbenchmark the T310 should be roughly twice as powerful as the Mediatek MT6761 (what variant ?) that powers the KKM and KKM2.
It has the same ranking as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 that powers the Rakuten Mini released in January 2020. :-(

Today they released rum stock including instructions and tools

I believe they will talk more about this device, bought from it in the last day more than 350 pieces which is a lot compared to Chinese devices

Budget Android tablets are often of poor quality, don't come with key Google applications and used outdated versions of the operating system. At RMB399 ($69), The Allfine Fine7 Genius is one seriously budget tablet, but it does come with lots of features only seen on much pricier slate.
Key Features
◇190 x 118 x 10.4mm dimension size
◇7 inch 16M-color super IPS display at WSVGA resolution (1024*600 pixels), 169PPI
◇Actions, qual core 1.0GHZ Cortex-A5 processor, GC1000+ GPU, 1GB DDR3 RAM
◇Stock Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
◇8GB of built-in-storage
◇VGA front facing camera
◇Stereo speakers
◇Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
◇HDMI TV-out
◇USB host
◇MicroSD card slot
◇2160p video playback
◇3500mAh Li-Po rechargeable battery
◇$69 Price
Design and Build​
The front of the tablet is dominated by a 7 inch IPS display, around which is the relatively wide bezel. As much as I love black, the bezel of the FINE7 Genius does feel just too plasticky cheap. Sitting in the bezel above the screen is a VGA front-facing camera.
The back of the tablet is much more gorgeous, it is pure white and has fine texture. The stereo speakers are also hosted on the back, which can produce sound of very decent volume and quality.
Allfine is has taken the simplistic approach with the FINE7 Genius, only a power/standby button and a volume rocker are hosted on the top edge.
The right edge plays host to all the ports and slots. I don’t quite understand the choice of mini USB port over a Micro USB port, given the price, I’d bet it be for lower cost.
The slate is 10.4mm thick, not really as paper thin as many other more expensive slate, but still isn’t porky at all. 300 gram in weight is really nice for holing the tablet for a long time!
Display​
The 7 inch display uses the same IPS screen technology seen in most tablets. It's covered in a scratch resistant glass, which should stand up to some abuse.
With a 1024 x 600 resolution packed into a relatively small display you get a very sharp-looking 169 pixels-per-inch. That's not quite iPad4 levels of detail, but it does make it very hard to see individual pixels. The display is bright too, with vibrant colors. It's a decent little screen, and would even be respectable on a device twice the price; for a budget tablet it’s simply incredible.
Performance
FINE7 Genius packs an Actions ATM7029 chip, paired with 1GB DDR3 RAM. For those who have read my reviews before, you know I have never been a fan of this SoC. But somehow I am okay with its presence here. With relatively lower screen resolution, this slate is much faster than the Ainol NOVO7 Venus.
Also, this slate has enough power to decode 2160P videos of different formats, but that’s more of a future function as the video resources at that resolution are pretty limited. Still, you can find enough 1080P videos to play on the Genius or output them on HDTV via HDMI.
Graphics are looked after with a Vivante GC1000 processor, which is capable of smoothly running all 3D games optimized for the Tegra ULP GeForce GPU.
Connection
The FINE7 Genius’ Wi-Fi reception is average amongst Chinese pads, not very good, but by no means disappointing. Connection is stable during my test, data transmission is decent, a lot better than the CUBE U9GT3.
Battery​
The Genius packs a 3,500mAh battery, giving the tablet a 4 hours, 54 minutes run time during my battery rundown test, which loops a 720P video with screen brightness set to 30% and Wi-Fi turned off. Not amazing, but decent enough for a $69 slate.
Wrap-up​
If you are looking for a tablet which represents the most cutting-edge technology, FINE7 Genius is not really your best option. However, for anyone who choose to buy this slate, you would get more than what you pay for.
The overall performance of the FINE7 Genius is average, but average is already amazing for such a low-price tablet.
Well i've bought this tablet and i'm waiting for it to arrive, it looks good for it price. Thank You for the review, it was most helpful, good to know that I didn't throw my money to the garbage while looking for a cheap tablet

Fire hazard!
I bought one of these last September. It worked perfectly for exactly two weeks, then one morning I connected it to the charger, and left it for no more than five minutes.
When I looked at it again, there was a white smear on the glass (turned out to be a steam mark inside) and the shell was hot and melting! The thing was dead, of course.
I contacted the Chinese supplier, and tried to get a replacement without sending the dead one back, but no dice: they insisted I return it for repair. So I posted it back to Shenzen. They emailed when it was received, and then again when dispatching it "repaired".
It arrived a few days ago, so more then 4 months had passed. Not my original one, which was warped and melted, but (I think) a refurbished one of the same model.
Naturally, I'm hyper-paranoid about leaving this one charging now. I have no idea if they have a generic battery problem, or mine was a one-off.
I have two Allfine Fine 7 Genius. I flash both of tablet new Rom, but the fault is same. The screens are don't answer. I tried to different rom and more again, but nothing else. The screens not working. Tablets are boots, but I can't do anything. I tried with USB mouse, but I have never worked for OTG function.
I tried to different PAD product tool (1.02 and 1.05 but same)
I have written to the allfine support (since more than a week) but did not answer me until now.
When I looked for in the web I fined more video the same mistake.
Please help. Can anyone suggestion something?

Comparative Review: Mijue M10, first under-USD150 8-core Smartphone Vs. Cubot X6

The good: USD150 is a very acceptable price for Chinese phone with mainstream chipset. Mijue M10 is as fast and smooth as Cubot X6. Display is good with more details.
The bad: Though I’ve saw lower-than-mediocre back cameras like Cubot X6’s, the M10 is even worse, which, however, has a better front camera. Money on useless and crap gesture sensing should’ve been saved or used to enhance other features.
Bottom Line: Mijue M10 did not surprise me finally by functioning, but it has a right price.
The cheapest 8-core Chinese smartphone was USD40 cheaper in about 2 months, and now we see Mijue, a never-heard brand, make a debut with its M10 for USD150 or so. The M10 and Cubot X6 (USD190) share the same components except that the Mijue handset has a smaller Nand flash memory. According to a friend of mine on the sourcing market, 8Gb makes a price gap of approximately USD 5, which doubles on retail.
It seems that an overall markdown of USD30 dollars in MTK6592 mobile phones is destined for now or the few months to come. Before making that sure, we should figure out whether Mijue M10 is a normal phone or it’s priced low for reasons, because a crap, however cheap it is, is a crap.
The performance of Cubot X6 proves that the collaboration of MTK6592 Octa-core CPU plus a 4-core Mali-450 GPU well powers a 720p-display smartphone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647933). Huawei Honor 3X, with the similar components, is fantastically better.
And now, I’m showing you what a phone Mijue M10 is by comparison with Cubot X6 bit by bit.
1. What the hell?
The M10 is equipped with a gesture sensor, which is useless from my point of view. What’s more, it takes great efforts to keep your palm neither too close to nor too far from the screen when you make “air” gesture – I mean you have to nearly touch the screen but not really touch it.
Sometimes, people don’t appreciate the existence of something or grieve on the loss of it even if it was perfect by itself. The first rule of making a cheap phone is not to add such an embarrasing burden on it, so you can save money for something else that people really cares, for example, a good look.
Cubot X6, which costs you USD40 dollars more, has no fancy to flaunt, but is good as a common boy.
2. Design.
If someone had only half an hour to design a cellphone and no afflatus flashed through his mind, he would bring out Mijue M10. In fact, this Mijue handset is that kind of stuff you think is the copy of something at first sight even if you can’t recall which one. Just as you may guess “s/he should have committed suicidal many years ago” when the poster of Marilyn Manson leaps to your eyes, for no special reason.
However, the Chinese producer didn’t do anything stupid like leaving wide seams on the body or many physical buttons on the edge. Besides, the phone is thin and its matte-finish back cover is not cheesy, so generally it’s a neat phone without much to complain about.
Now Cubot X6 looks far more inspiring. Its copy of Arc S can be taken as a tribute to the past and the aluminum bordering the camera lens is, anyway, unique.
3. Display
To my surprise, Mijue M10 is equipped with a better display than Cubot X6 in terms of both resolution and contrast. The two phones have the same face value of 720 by 1280 pixels, but Mijue M10 delivers more details of the same picture. Have a look at the left lower part of the landscape photo. On Cubot X6, you can only tell it was a lot of grass, while on the M10, you can almost distinguish one piece from another. And of course colors are more vivid on the Mijue handset.
As for webpages, apps, or anything with white background, Mijue M10’s display is colder with a little bit sepia, which I don’t like, while you can see pure white on the X6.
4. Camera
In the same light condition, Cubot X6’s back camera takes better photos than Mijue M10 with crispier details and livelier colors, while their front cameras were quite the contrary.
5. Operating system.
The Android 4.2.2 pre-installed on Mijue M10 is the original version with everything essential such as the Play Store.
On the X6, the OS differs a little bit from the pure Android 4.2.2. Every apps icon has a background, which is lovely and helps make the interface more compact. Besides, the apps and widget sections are separate, so you don’t slide across them.
6. Performance
There is something weird about the results on benchmark apps, but I will mention it later in case it affects your judgment. First of all, have a look at the real performance of the two smartphones.
You may not observe from the video the subtle difference that I felt in reality, but switch of home screens and pictures was indeed a little smoother on Mijue M10. On the other hand, cars of NFS Most Wanted run in the same speed on both phones, sometimes a little bit faster on the X6.
From my 3-day experience, Mijue M10 and Cubot X6 belong to the same level in terms of smoothness, and they notched similar scores on GFX Bench. Though the Cubot handset is nearly 6,000 behind the M10 on Aututu, I still believe in my feelings.
The most weird is that both Antutu and GFX say the powerhouse of Mijue M10 is MT6592 which has 6 cores. I tried two sets of the model, and the results were not different. MT6592 with 6 cores! We all know MT6592 is an 8-core CPU, which is proved true on any other mobile phone. I personally can’t explain the absurdity.
7. Battery
Battery is most people’s top concern but I couldn’t give exact time of duration in my previous reviews. This time I let a 720P music video loop on the X6 and M10 when they are watched over by the Battery Monitor Widget. With the same 2,200mAh capacity, Mijue M10 and Cubot X6 lasted 4.5 and 5 hours respectively. I hope the numbers help you anticipate their durations in normal use.
Conclusion:
Anyway, Mijue M10 is the cheapest 8-core mobile phone presently, where no major drawbacks have been found during my short trial. Regardless of how they will perform in the long run, I personally think the M10 is better worth its price than Cubot X6, or any other Octa-core stuff.
History tells us that USD150 is the ultimate mainstream price for Chinese-branded smartphones with mainstream components, so we can expect quite a number of 8-core 720p-display 1GB-RAM phones with worse-than-mediocre cameras to emerge around the price before the release of the next generation of the MTK chipsets.

Full Review: THL T11, really fast with 2GB RAM to liberate MTK6892 8-Core CPU

The good: 2GB RAM perfectly unleashes the potential of MT6592, so in terms of gaming, THL T11 is the one of the fastest 8-core smartphone I’ve ever experienced (the other is Huawei Honor 3X). Good craftsmanship as on previous THL handsets. The protective case is smart with automatic wake-up and can be used as a stand.
The bad: The protective case frequently flip open itself. The camera is disappointing.
Bottom line: Though it is 20 US dollars above the que-limit price for a Chinese phone, THL T11 is still worth the price, because it is very close to a high-end stuff in many aspects.
Price has long been my first concern if it comes to talking about a Chinese cell phone, so I didn’t mean to do much about the USD220 THL T11 when the cheapest phone with the Octa-core MTK6592 CPU has been 70 US dollars cheaper, namely, Mijue M10.
Fortunately the 2GB RAM drew my attention and made me wonder if it would help make a difference. Well, it did, and I saw something that stunned me quite a lot, like what you would see in the video below.
Yep, the cars of NFS Most Wanted flied! That gave me confidence to try Real Racing 3, which, seems not bad on the T11, too. And such a phone – I can call it a beast – of course deserves a full review. So here it is.
1. Design:
THL T11 is generally a copy of Xiaomi M3, or you may say both the 2 Chinese-brand phones stole the design language of Nokia Lumia 920, including a long rectangle face with sharp corners, curved-out left and right edges, as well as flat top and bottom.
As the T11 has a user-replaceable battery, there are inevitably seams on its edges for opening of the back cover. That aside, the handset inherits the good craftsmanship from its THL predecessors.
The rear side of THL T11 delivers a soft feel like that from a velvet blanket -- quite different from stock hard plastics covers; being a little bit narrower but thicker, the smartphone looks more compact than Xiaomi Mi3; and it has a neat appearance with no redundant buttons or holes besides a volume rocker, a power starter, a micro USB port, and a 3.5mm jack.
A bonus point could be the protective case which is composed of an extra back cover and a foldable piece of leather. You can flip the front cover open and close to wake up the display and let it sleep. And like the Smart Case of iPad, the T11 case can be used as a stand for video watching, too.
Perhaps the condition is just for the very T11 I hold in hand -- the front cover open itself due to a tensile force, so I have to let the face of the handset down when I put it on a table.
2. Display:
This week I tried three Chinese mobile phones with 5-inch 720p screens, namely, Cubot X6, Mijue M10, THL T11. Of them, Cubot X6 and THL T11 have the worst and best displays, respectively.
On the T11, you can see all the details of an image that should be shown with the resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels, and the mild and lively colors are quite eye pleasing.
3. Camera:
If THL T11 had a good camera, I would be willing to spend 30 US dollars more --- USD250 for a cellphone with no major drawback is quite a deal. Unfortunately, THL would rather save the money for a lower price.
The back camera is just a little bit better than a total disaster with low real resolution and pale colors, while the front camera is somewhat heartening. By the way, remember to peel off the piece of blue protective film on the lens of the rear camera, or you’ll get a more blurry picture.
Normal light:
Low light:
With flash:
Under fluorescent lamp:
Selfie:
4. OS:
The T11 runs on the pure Android 4.2.2 with Google Play store pre-installed. People on XDA-developers may not be android purists, but I think this hardware would set your mind at ease for development.
5. Performance
With the gaming experience aforementioned, I knew the T11 would have high scores on benchmark apps. And it did. Antutu gives the smartphone a high score of 27196 and GFX Bench 3.0 says it is able to deal with 41 pictures of 720p resolution in a second.
Not only gaming, every operation on the THL stuff is fast, such as switch across apps trays, open and close of apps, slide of pictures. However, I still feel hiccups during the switch between widget trays – the same problem with all Android 4.2.2 Chinese phones I’ve tested.
It seems that the MTK6592 Octa-core CPU and Mali450 MP4 quad-core GPU make a real fine chipset allocation, which, however, needs a big random access memory (RAM) to liberate itself from fetters. According to my memory, THL T11 should be as fast as Huawei Honor 3X, and the latter, worth more than USD300, happens to contain a 2GB RAM, too.
6. Battery:
Just like what I did on Cubot X6 and Mijue M10, I let a 720p music video loop on the T11 till the battery dies, and at the same time, the Battery Monitor Widget watched out the power consumption. Finally, the 2750mAh lasted the smartphone for about 6 hours of playback.
7. Others:
Though I don’t feel NFC is very useful, at least for now, this module on the T11 is quite responsive -- it connects very quickly to Nexus 4 and transfers files quite smoothly -- have a look at the video above.
8. Conclusion:
Of all cheap Chinese phones, THL T11 may be the first one that I think is a worthy opponent against some internationally known brands. Except camera, the T11 is fine by all means, and in terms of speed, it should’ve been one of the fastest of all 8-core phones by far.
Awesome review. Thanks for info. I am really interested now.

It's just one week experience, so it may or may not be as good after long-time use. You need to see some consumer reviews for more fair judgement.
Which website did you order your phone from? How long did it take to reach you?
Thanks

How about facebook? Does it crash? Some people said that fb version 7 runs ok.
Thank you.
Great review indeed. Especially the battery performance verification method. My T11 is on the way (should arrive within the next week).
People claim that the notification led only works when charging.. Is it true? Is there any way to fix it without installing another ROM?

Sorry i didn't notice such details, but i'll check when the handset is available again. About the battery performance verification, it was learned from a guy on XDA.

I think so. T11 is the best mediocre Chinese phone by far, in terms of craftsmanship, smoothness, display and comprehensive strength.

MEIZU MX4 hands on

I am a meizu fans, I want MX4 but can't get it now because it is stockout. I find this article from here and just share it with all people like me.

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.

if you wanna get it cheap (even cheaper go to a local shop and tell him to lower the price) or you can order it from http://goo.gl/f0FhNH with no shipping fees
ITXtutor has just unboxed this phone https://youtu.be/nSvm5BoWAm8 he is very harsh on it but it does not look to bad for a cheap phone but I think he is right it looks cheap. Maybe the metal frame will make it tough but with no Gorilla Glass it wont take much rough treatment.

yeah, it seems like that, but really very cheap, friend.
I have it. Bought it for fun just because it looks kind of "Goth" to me and I'm into that kind of music. First impression is better than I excpected. Actually a lot better than the 99 USD including shipping I paid for it. Basically it has the same hardware as the ZTE Blade V6 including the camera sensors but witha a slightly smaller screen and at 1/3 of the price. Uhans claims that it has Gorilla Glass but I'm not so sure. I'm not so sure about the real resolution of the cameras also. Maybe it's interpolated. I'll find out later. I can make a short review of it when I have tested it a bit. Anywy, I think it's cool!
--------EDIT1--------
Sony IMX164 8MP interpolated to 13MP + Omnivision 2MP interpolated to 5MP
--------EDIT2--------
No Gorilla Glass. The glass is a fingerprint magnet. It has a MT6735P @ 1.0 GHz (GPU @ 400 MHz), not a MT6735 @ 1.3 GHz (GPU @ 600 MHz) like some sellers claims. That is a big difference actually. The phone is a bit sluggish in the GUI and in 3D games, but it's ok for an extra phone, which is what I use it for. It's stable, has good battery time and the 4G modem is fast. I get 100 Mb/s in download speed, which is maximum what my network can deliver.

Looking forward to Updated Versions of UHANS U100/U200 with 4.5G Network?
Recently, UHANS hinted on Facebook
https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=559332477567821&id=459892364178500
that they have intention for an updated U100/U200 supporting 4.5G network. As many users are fond of their designs while the specs fall behind the times, same designs with higher specs make good sense.
The chip, to be suggested, will be MediaTek Helio P10, which will be the same as that of OPPO R9. Meanwhile, the RAM will be updated to 4GB. Compared to those of U100 and U200, it will be definitely a stride forward. It is also said that the device will come with a 5.2-inch full HD display, not too big or too small. This may be quite a move to take if UHANS actually employs it to the updated version. Many manufacturers like LG, Samsung and ZTE has already featured their smartphones with 5.2” display. It seems that UHANS wants to join the party as well. The network will be likely able to support 4.5G, meaning that mobile broadband data rates will be exceeding 1,000 Mbit/s - or ten times faster than current 4G rates, enabling users to access high-definition video, gaming services, clearer telephone calls and more. No doubt that it will be in the new era of mobile phone history.
Whether the updated version will come to reality is still under uncertainty, but we can stay tuned with it.
Hi,
the best think to root Uhan U200 is to use the APK of KingoRoot:
http://storage.apktrunk.com/0516/KingRoot_4.9.3_APKTrunk.apk
It works great !
I couldn't with the pc version.
ANd it's a good phone.
