Latest Umidigi news and reviews
Back when the Umidigi A5 Pro was released we wrote about the misleading marketing campaign that the company was doing to promote their smartphone. Back then, they were using a photo taken with the Huawei P30 Pro and advertising it as being taken with their smartphone. They even went so far as to add a watermark “Shot on the UMIDIGI A5 Pro”. It seems that they are back at it, this time to promote S5 Pro. The image from the…
Umidigi revealed today that they are planning on releasing a new smartphone. If the Umidigi S5 Pro is a game-centric mid-ranger with a few interesting specs, the A7 Pro, as the new device is called, comes with a low price tag of under $150 and a lower-tier CPU. Still, it manages to offer a decent quad-camera setup on the back and decent FullHD+ screen, something rarely seen at this price point. The Umidigi A7 is powered by the Mediatek Helio…
We covered Umidigi in the past and the company has managed to improve its offering considerably in the past two years. With their latest device, the company wants to take on the Redmi Note 9 and the Realme 6 series by offering a mid-range smartphone with a game-centric CPU. The final price was not yet revealed, but we can expect the phone to be in the same range as the other two mentioned. The Umidigi S5 Pro, as the new…
Banggood has started pre-sales for the Umidigi A3x, a low-budget smartphone that managed to spark our interest because of a really good price to performance ratio. Now, don’t expect high-performance gaming or 4k video recording, but for a secondary device or for someone that only does web browsing, emails and social networks, the Umidigi A3x may be a really good smartphone. It also runs the latest version of Android (Android 10), which is a cool bonus at just $80. The…
Almost a month ago I wrote about Roidmi and how their IndieGoGo campaign, despite having huge commercial success, ended in disaster. Back then, almost no backers from Europe got their vacuums even though the deadline was two months passed, and other regions saw big delays as well. After that article Roidmi started to respond (after more than a month of complete silence) and saying that shipping will be done soon. Another company, Umidigi, had a similar situation and they handled…
Umidigi launched a new fitness tracker and despite the affordable price, the Umidigi UWatch 3 has good fitness and activity tracking capabilities, promises great battery life and even has water resistance. Now, I would not say it is a smartwatch since it does not have ann app store nor can it run applications besides the ones pre-installed, but if you are looking for a simple fitness tracker that also doubles as a watch and notifications reminder, the Uwatch 3 may…
Umidigi announced today a new entry-level smartphone. Called the Umidigi A3S, the device has low-end specifications but also a low price, at just $60. Don’t expect to push this smartphone too much, but for basic web browsing and social networks. It also has a rather outdated design, with both top and bottom bezels. On the bright side, it has good connectivity options, making it suitable for emerging markets and for people who don’t want to spend too much on a…
Umidigi will start pre-orders for the Umidigi F2 in just a few days, on the 14th of October, and the company really managed to catch our attention with this device. Not only does it come with really good specs, but they will also sell it for just $179.99 until the 16th. At this price, the Umidigi F2 is a device that is worth considering and makes a good alternative for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8. The Umidigi F2 comes with…
Umidigi started with smartphones, but in the past few months, the company launched quite a few other devices. We have the UWatch (which is at its second generation now), UPods and now, the Umidigi UWake. This is a Bluetooth speaker that acts as an alarm clock as well. What makes this interesting is that it can double as a sunrise simulator and has multiple color LEDs that can also beat to the music. All these, fur just $29.99, or even…
Today Umidigi unveiled their latest smartphone, the Umidigi F2. We already knew quite a few details about this device, but today’s release does shine a light on the phone and offers us all the missing specs and features. And, to be quite honest, the Umidigi F2 is an interesting device considering the price it is being sold for. Sale of the phone won’t start until the 14th of October, so you will have to wait a bit until you can…
