They’ve not only impressed with style, but with features. I recently commented on a thread that China brands will need to come with something special and Oukitel has answered the call with innovative designs such as the Oukitel U6.

Oukitel U6 specs at a glance

  • SoC: MT6735
  • CPU: 64-bit Quad-core 1.3GHz
  • GPU: Mali-720
  • RAM: 2GB
  • ROM Storage: 16GB
  • Display front: 5.0″@720p
  • Display rear: 4.7″@540p E-ink
  • OS: Android 5.1
  • SIM: Dual micro
  • Battery: 2000mAh
  • Cameras: 13MP/5MP
  • TF SD slot: Yes
  • 2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
  • 3G: WCDMA 900/2100MHz
  • 4G: FDD-LTE 800/1800/2100/2600MHz

Check it. The Oukitel U6 has an E-ink display in the rear. This is especially interesting to me because I’m a big reader. While generally speaking reading books doesn’t require a lot of CPU juice, it does take a bit of juice to keep a 5.0″ display lit. Far more than what it takes for E-ink technology.

To put it into perspective, Oukitel claims 120 hours reading time. If we cut that estimate in half, it’s still an enormous increase in comparison to a typical mobile’s 5-7 hours. This is a huge bonus for anyone who reads a lot, takes long trips, or is getting low on juice while out and about.

The rear display isn’t only for reading books, you can also look at pictures (in B&W) as well as have it display important information such as weather, notifications, calendar, emails, control music and surf the web.

In regards to the SoC, the MT6735 is more than powerful enough to run Android smoothly. I’m also quite liking the style of the phone and the fact that it’s got 2GB RAM and an SD expansion slot.

The one downside to the phone is the lack of 850/1900 WCDMA, so N/C/S Americas will have to give this phone a pass. If you’re in Asia, UK or Europe, the Oukitel U6 may be a strong contender for your dough.
