According to Ulefone, Lollipop is right around the corner. While I don’t quite look forward to new OS as some people do, I do understand the desire to have the latest and greatest. (more…)

Ulefone Be Pro Review – 2GB RAM / 720p LG Display
Before there was Elephone, there was Ulefone. They have been in the game for longer than many of the current brands you know and love (or hate). Mostly known for making good clones, Ulefone has now ventured beyond their roots to design their own phones.
update: According to Ulefone’s Facebook, the camera in the Ulefone Be Pro is not Sony. This was a mistake from the marketing department. I have spoken to a Ulefone rep who has stated “the camera uses Sony technology, but is not Sony branded”. I’m not quite sure how to interpret that, but there it is. Nevertheless, the camera is quite good and for the flash sale price of $135 or coupon price of $146 the Ulefone Be Pro is still an outstanding deal.
This motivation comes from wanting to legitimately branch into Western markets. It would be impossible with clones to do this officially, so they have taken the bold step of stepping at least partially out of the clone game.
Regardless of where the motivation comes from, I can only see this development as a great thing.
Notably the Ulefone Be Pro carries with it the new 64-bit MT6732 SoC with the Mali-T760 GPU, 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, OTG, Hotknot technology, worldwide 3G/H+ and 4-Band LTE. All at a considerably low price point given the specs.

A couple of months ago I reviewed the THL 5000 and was left very unimpressed. Among other more minor issues, the screen came set crooked.

A blast to the past – MT6582 iNew V3
The LCD was great looking and the price was excellent for the specs.
Eleven months ago iNew changed the game with their evolutionary release — the iNew V3. The iNew V3, at the time, was one of the slickest looking mobiles on the market, and that included putting it up stylewise against the popular name brands as well. (more…)
