UMI eMAX is only 7.9mm thick, the claimed battery capacity is over 4000mAh.
UMi have made a name for themselves with the UMI Zero. After that UMI created a fantastic PC tool called Rootjoy to support custom ROMs.
While we are still wondering what would be the next, UMI just hit us with their Hammer. The toughest cookie UMI Hammer smartphone.
However, if anyone had been looking at images of the Hong Kong trade fairs that just finished, you might have seen images of a new UMI phone called eMAX.
After communicated with UMI, UMI eMAX is designed with a 7.9mm thickness body with over 4000mAh capacity battery.
This mean for a heavy smartphone user, the phone still can last 2-3 days long. If the eMAX specs are going to be real, then it would be the most outstanding smart phone, with similar specs as phones which only has 3000mAh battery.
Currently there are no infos if the UMI eMAX also will support Rootjoy and custom ROMs, but let's hope so!

UMI eMAX is also a power bank! (can also be used for iPhone 6).
As we know, UMi are preparing to launch a new smartphone named the UMI eMAX.
eMAX represent “Maximum Energy” and comes with over 3780 mAh battery capacity, so for heavy users it can last 2-3 days.
UMI eMAX is not just a smartphone where you can make calls, but also a power bank.
So you can use your it to help charge your friend’s iPhone 6, 2 times!
UMI says that they have a surprising offer about UMI eMAX on May 25th, no more info are out, so we just have to wait and see.

Great device.

How much the phone has free ram when no apps running?Does it support OTG,NFC? Does it have backlight on the capacative buttons?

I have 1.3GB RAM free still on mine, you can check it here http://goo.gl/TEucvU - but it really depends on how many apps you have installed and how many that run in the background. The more apps, the more RAM will be used. And the touch buttons have no backlight. OTG is supported, NFC is not, but it has Hotknot (an alternative to NFC).

Can you see them well in dark?
]
So can you see the buttons well in the dark? How about the front and back camera quality?Are they good? like is the back camera really 13mpx and front camera 5mpx?

I answered you that the buttons have no light, so you can of course not see them in the dark then. (but for me it is no problem, I know pretty fast where the buttons are located, I need no light for that.) For camera samples, check the link in post #1.

camera
This phone is same like TCL 3N , same size, CPU, RAM, screen, weight.
But I think this phone not use same camera like TCL 3N, TCL use IMX214.
What do you think about camera on this phone?
BR!

Yes, the eMax is a sibling from the TCL M2U /Alcatel Flash Plus. Alcatel is a TCL Brand.
The differences are:
Screen: eMax has a Full HD screen, TCL has only a HD resolution
CPU: eMax 6572 with 1.7 Ghz max CPU, TCL uses the 6572M with max 1.5 Ghz
Camera: The TCL M2U has a IMX214 Sony sensor. See the official TCL homepage
I'am not sure if the Alcatel Flash Plus uses this sensor also. The specs are the same.
The eMax has a Omnivision sensor.
Modem: TCL supports different LTE Bands.
I think this are good news. TCL/Alcatel is a well respected brand in Asia, with good engineering and build quality.
The Alcatel Flash Plus is available since May.

Hi!
I'm interested in this phone UMI Emax but despite I've read all official and nonofficial information and I've watched all available video reviews, I couldn't understand what kind of sensors are used in both cameras. OK, Omnivision but could you be more specific? Is it OV13850 or what?
While watching s7yler's camera samples in his blog I saw very low resolution of the taken pictures - 2048 x 1536. Is this the original resolution of the pictures? Shouldn't be something like 4128 x 3096?

It is because I uploaded them to Google Plus photos, Google resizes them, but that doesn't make them look worse. The original pictures are of course in full resolution.

I presumed it could be the reason but wasn't sure. Thanks!
Still remains the question with the sensors. Anyone?

it would be great to have it at $109..

I contacted yesterday seller from UMI, and told me UMI EMAX use OV8858 camera

Umi emax have Gorilla Glas or not ?

i'm very suspicious about some of the hardware... normally the brands proudly write down extras like OGS, Gorilla Glass, Sony IXM Sensor or such things. Umi is pretty quiet about exactly those with the emax. No exact sensor, no "special made" glass.
i'll stay suspicious until further infos pop up...

It doesn't really matter what the specs says on paper, it is how it performs in real life. If you like the sample pictures I made (for me the pictures are more than good, I have tested a lot phones with a lot worse camera), then you should just forget about what sensor it has. We saw Ulefone advertise big for the Sony IMX sensor, but the pictures do not look that great. So for me they can write whatever sensor they want to, in the end it depends on how the pictures really look like. The same with the Gorilla Glass, many China companies write their phones uses Gorilla Glass, but I have had some in the hand where the glass just still felt like ordinary glass, so I wasn't really sure about it.

so, would you say the umi emax is one of the better 5,5" MTK6752 phones out there? btw, did you get my pn?

UMi LONDON: An inspiration by London Tower Bridge
Solid yet Beautiful
Inspired by London
As the smartphone have been developing in big size and screen,we are expecting it tough enough for a long run. But it’s disappointed to find rear product combine the rugged funtion with fashionable design.
When UMi team traveled to London,we are amazied by the Tower Bridge have been exiting over 120 years started by the Prince of Wales. UMi team hope the next smartphone can be as strong as Tower Bridge and as good design as it is, so we name our next model as “UMi London”.
Design for solidity
In terms of the frame ,Tower Bridge use over 11,000 tons of steel provided the framework for the Towers and Walkways. That inspires UMi’s product manager using dual protection and stable 3M frame to ensure survive in 1.5M drop.
Great to eyeball and in hands
We spent a long time perfecting the curves of UMi London. We melted dual-glass with such precision that it meets the curved metal alloy to create an exquisitely seamless and strong unibody.not only for solity but for your feel gentle in hands.
This framework just like Tower Bridge the use stone to protect the underlying steelwork and to give the Bridge a more pleasing appearance.
So,UMi London is a eye-pleasing, rugged reliability choice for you!

UMi London - Drop Test Video + How You Can Get One For Free!
UMi London is a masterstroke, UMi's best effort yet at making a phone that isn’t just affordable, but durable and something that can't be ignored easily! In the past, they've shown off the device along with its specifications. However, the durability aspect of the device is what buyers seem to find very interesting…
In response to this question, UMi put together a quick video demonstrating how the UMi London can handle drops or falls that all of us experience in our daily lives. The video shows how durable the UMi London is, despite being a phone that will hardly even set you back at just $59.99 (Official Price).
The video recreates real life situations with drops imitating those that happen while taking selfies, drops from a bar table, and so on.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$0 Review Program - Want an UMi London for free?
Evaluating feedbacks, UMi is willing to send fans free UMi London units. What we expect in return is only comprehensive community reviews, so that UMi can handle any kind of question in a much easier way and why not, also fix some bugs that could be there at the device release.
If you think that you are the right person, with enough experience and a real willingness to do so, just head over to the $0 Review program and do your best to convince UMi why you should be chosen. (similar to the OnePlus Labs, to get a OP3 review unit)
A total of 10 reviewers globally will be chosen, who will be enlisted to receive a free UMi London. Winners will be chosen on the basis of their application (this is not a lucky draw!), so do your best to convince them! http://www.umidigi.com/page-umi_london_activity.html ​

yes, this phone with 2DD looks amazing, hope the price will go down a lil bit...

UMi London 100ft Drop Test - How much it will resist?
While designing the UMi London, UMi took extra consideration of some real-life situations that cause damage to phones. Given that they were building a phone that was supposed to cost under $50 ($49.99 to be precise, this is the official price), an interesting idea came up -- the rugged nature could be bought as an add-on.
Which is why they made the UMi London with a custom-designed add-on case that you can purchase. Not only will this enhance the look of the UMi London even further, it will make it even more rugged! UMi recently did a drop test of the UMi London, and now back with the promised 100ft drop test. Have a look at the video here
As seen in the video, the London can take more than just a beating. Considering its price, it is perhaps the best rugged phone can be bought right now.
You would have noticed that the screen does break at one point (but hey, maybe with a Glass Screen Protector it will completely survive? Who knows). Well, good news is that despite the broken screen you can still use many functions of the phone! Unlike some popular brand phones (including the Apple iPhone), a single minor crack on the screen of the UMi London will NOT make the phone useless. (OGS technology)
So, it can be summed up that the UMi London is a phone that can't be ignored, and that the 100 feet drop test turned out to be quite successful. You could see in the video that the phone was usable despite the cracks on the screen, which by the way were really few considering the height of the drop. What do you think? Isn’t the UMi London a budget marvel!

UMi London Smash Test Review!
What’s better than a beautiful looking UMi London? Well, UMi London in the hands on beautiful women! UMi tried to pull that off in their newest video, where besides the phone and some beautiful women, they show off some rugged features of the UMi London.
As you might know, the UMi London is a rugged phone using DG Twin-Shield Technology for just $59.99. DG Twin-shield combines the best of both worlds: custom-made dual 2.5D T2X-1 glass & 3M Double Coated Foam Tape. A few days back they showed a video of how the phone managed to take some hefty drops, including some from 3 feet to some from 100 feet.
To show you how the UMi London can live through a smash test, watch the UMi's video below:
Just as a reminder, UMi is also giving global reviewers a chance to win the phone for free. You can apply here - http://www.umidigi.com/page-umi_london_activity.html

Leaked News:
LEAGOO launches the world's first non-breakpoint all-metal frame smartphone.
There have been rumors about LEAGOO’s new phone which is known as M5 starting mass production since last month. Recently, a leaked picture of LEAGOO’s new phone is highly suspected as M5, showing some exciting details of this new product.
From the first glimpse of M5, the most eye-catching feature is its non-breakpoint metal frame. No articulation point has been seen in its “all-metal” frame, which gives it a smooth touch feeling. The volume buttons and the power button are all located on the right side of the device, while the USB port is situated at the bottom. This should mean that the speakers are located on the back of the phone. M5 has a slim body and is perfectly appropriate to be used by one hand. Without any physical button on the front, the whole look of M5 is simple and pleasing. Besides, the metallic unibody structure gives it a sense of fashion. In all, M5 has an expressive figure among those big-size Smartphones.
CPU: Unknown Yet
RAM: Unknown Yet
Price: Unknown Yet
Time to market: Unknown Yet
We have no idea about the CPU inside, but it should be an entry level mid-ranger. While we don’t see it in the picture, at the back, the phone is also said to come with a fingerprint sensor, which has become a standard feature among LEAGOO smartphones recently. The price is said to be reasonable, but we have no official figures as of now. Stay tuned for more details in the coming days.

LEAGOO M5, the World’s First Nano “All-metal” Closed Loop Frame Smartphone.
After a long wait, LEAGOO has finally rolled out one of the coolest and most durable Smartphone. What do we can expect? Reasonable price, implicit toughness or just an amazing hardware configuration?
The M5 is declared to be so solid and shockproof that you absolutely no need to worry about the quality problem. If you take a regular Smartphone and throw it carelessly on the floor, there's a high chance of the device sustaining some kind of damage. It might crack, bend or totally stop working if its circuitry gets affected by the impact. M5 is declared to be totally different. It doesn’t mind getting crushed, or dropped by accident as it is built with durability in mind. (a pseudo-Rugged device?)
One of the most interesting feature of the M5 is the world's first nano “All-metal” closed loop frame design. LEAGOO seems to have finally solved an engineering challenge after days of testing and focus on a smooth and delicate “All-metal” frame body which encompasses a tougher structure and delivers an amazing hand feeling.
“All-metal” is not the only surprise here because the M5 features also a 0.19 seconds fingerprint function (the world's first MT6580 device with a fingerprint sensor), declared to be fast, accurate, secure and easy to use. (Smart Features are probably there)
It features a 5.0 inches HD display with 2.5D Bulletproof Glass, 8MP rear camera with flash led, 4P lens and F2.0 aperture that helps you get clear images and ensures that every shot is sharp and crisp.
Everything supported by 2GB RAM, 16GB of built-in storage plus expandable storage up to 128GB. Also, in order to improve music quality, the M5 uses the Awinic K7 Amplifier that provides dynamic sound performance. The loudspeaker's performance is declared to reach Hi-Fi levels.
As regards the battery life, the M5 packs a 2300 mAh li-polymer battery that should be able to handle at least one day of usage (MT6580 isn't a power hungry CPU). Just like the UHANS S1, it will feature the Freeme OS 6.0 (Based on Android 6.0), probably the second device ever released with this OS.
Powered by the a Quad-Core processor, the M5 is declared to deliver an astonishing battery life which can allow you to handle multiple tasks for a long time and without any interruption.
These are just the tiny part of the M5, more will come soon.

New Video from LEAGOO. Rugged Test!
Sincerely it shocked me That's the perfect example of slim, but resistant, device.
Now...i would like to see a drop test, so that we can officially declare it as the world's first rugged device, with a non-rugged look.

I didn't even know it at the time, but I bought into GearBest's flash sale of this phone this morning. So I'm pretty stoked about it. Just anxious for a release date and my payment confirmation... :|

It is definitely not weird. The original test video was made by Leagoo, so it is obviously fake (or just call it marketing).
However, the device can actually survive a car! That's surprising.
And 2GB RAM for 60€? How can it be better?

In leagoo's video where they hammer the nails, the board looks like 3/4 inch solid board, but if you look closely I think its actually hollow board.

Just a doubt, i am not a Glass Expert but i think this isn't something non-sense. In the Valendar's Video we can see that he firstly scratched the glass, it definitely reduces its toughness...BUT, it is strange that it got scratched so easily.

Homtom HT20/Info / Microphone Problems

HOMTOM as an innovative smartphone brand is continuously focusing on what the end users really need, will soon launch a new model -------

HT20 smartphone will soon be experienced by many of us with quite tough characteristics on account of its tough materials as well as its outstanding “three proofing properties” finally achieved, especially IP68 waterproof rating. We believe it will redefine the “Toughness” for outdoor smartphone then.
Unlike the traditional phone structure by wrapping the phone with super cumbersome materials, HOMTOM HT20 adopts a newly-improved withhold structural design. The new assembly method, which structures the phone with fully enclosed vacuum assembly process, helps form a compact and solid phone body, thus, greatly enhances the features of waterproof, shockproof and dustproof.
The new assembly method leads to spectacular results in terms of tri-proofing.
For an outdoor smartphone, nice waterproof feature is a must.
HOMTOM HT20 promotes its waterproof function to a higher level. Being certificated IP68 proofing design, it can not only guard against water outside the phone, but also can withstand dust, dirt and sand.
HT20 can endure working underwater. For more coolness, it can enable you to take crystal pictures with the 13MP rear camera even in the rain or underwater environment.
As for drop resistance, HOMTOM HT20 adopts military-standard high density PC material for the back case and the high density aeronautical metal materials for the frame. All these exquisite materials combined with the fine craftsmanship create a drop resistance, smash-proof masterpiece, as well as a stylish HT20.
The HT20 can withstand a fall of 1.2m. Moreover, the Corning Gorilla Glass forms a strong protection for the phone screen thanks to its wonderful resistance to impact force.
For the sake of fine tri-proofing properties, HOMTOMHT20 also pays attention to each minor detail --- Besides the outstanding materials carefully selected and the newly-improved withhold structural design, HT20 also offers anti-dust protection to its headset jack, USB port and speaker by using super effective dustproof materials like the anti-dust filter mesh, the Samsung USB port with plug, etc. Dust will be kept away!
All in all, as a toughest outdoor smartphone, HOMTOM HT20 will show you how much it can suffer.

Uhans U300n visual concept

Uhans U300 concept pre-view.
Mainstream smartphones on the market can be divided into 2 categories:
1. Sleek phones like iphone, Samsung, Huawei, LG, Nexus...
2. Rugged phones and luxurious phones (for the minority)
Unlike any of them, UHANS U300 comes in between.
It is a combination of style, sturdiness and luxury.
Uhans U300 is style and personality

Uhans have another U series phone on the way named the U300.
All the video says is a new phone, the U300, is in the works and that the phone is coming soon. It also gives us an idea of what the phone is going to look like (well its shape at least).
So that’s it! But we’ve take a look around the web to see if we can uncover other details and believe we’ve found the full specs for the phones.
According to leaks specifications will include a 5-inch FHD display, quad-core 1.3Ghz chipset, 2GB RA, 16GB internal memory and a 3000mAh battery.
The body will feature a similar “stylish’ design and likely to be finished in a “leather” material.

UHANS U300 Makes the Best or Nothing
The best or nothing, which is a message that Mercedes-Benz has been trying to convey through its products from tradition to innovation for over a hundred years. Now, this concept will be put into the UHANS U300.
As a member of “U” lineup, U300 has got a similar but leapfrogged design compared to U100 and U200. It is nothing like iPhone, Samsung phones, or other smartphones on the market. It will be unique, luxurious and breathtaking.
To make a perfect couple with the design, the specifications will also be discerning enough to make U300 a luxury. It is the best in UHANS’s history. It will feature 64-bit MediaTek MT6750 processor, kitted out with 4GB RAM and 32GB ROM. It will come with a 5.5-inch FHD display and 4750 mAh battery. Check the video and you can get more details
According to leaks specifications will include:
* 5.5 inch FHD display,
* MT6750,
* 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM
* Huge 4750mAh battery.
* IP65
* Titanium alloy
The body will feature a stylish design and likely to be finished in a top Italian leather material.

Uhans with a design made by former Mercedes-Benz designer they believe it will be able to deliver sort of a Vertu-style design but more innovative.

UHANS U300 is a multitasking master
The year of 2016 has witnessed a huge number of Android smatphones. While the competition gets more and more fierce, UHANS may have released the best smartphone with 4GB RAM.
At first glance, the U300 is a rather attractive handset with a Mercedes-Benz style. The phone is made out of Benz’s titanium alloy and top Italian leather that's available in black. The craftsmanship being touted here certainly is impressive even though it may not be the most unique-looking device around.
The front of the UHANS U300 boasts a 5.5-inch FHD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080, which is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 4. The device is powered by the MediaTek MT6750 chipset. Along with that, there’s 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The device also supports microSD cards of up to 64GB. The memory of U300 is just so enough for normal use. But why is it the best? The video will unveil how manageable the U300 is with multiple Apps.

UHANS U300 Drop Test
Together with a few soda cans, the UHANS U300 has been dropped from a height of about 30 meters. Such scenario looks quite exciting with the drinks splashing all around.

Display test: UHANS U300 V.S. Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge​
UHANS U300 is a phone that stands apart from the traditional phones like iPhone and rugged phones with an innovative Mercedes-Benz design. And it is the first phone that uses FHD display in the UHANS history.
The U300’s 5.5-inch FHD display manages to deliver rich and sharp images, even though it's not as pixel dense as others on the market. The colors are actually nicely saturated. Viewing angles are generous too. If you don’t like the default settings, you can adjust them on Miravision. Contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpness and color temperature can all be customized.
This is a video showing the visual effect of both U300 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

Just like a Mercedes-Benz Advert, this is awesome.​

Uhans is pushing a lot on his new U300. Today they released this article:
It is not a superhero, but definitely a knight
Long long time ago, there were legends of knights who fought for honor. Though they are gone now*and*replaced by the magical superheroes created by the famous Marvel and DC, the faith of knights shines on still.
Armed with noble spirit, in the midst of blood and carnage, they remained brave, humble, compassionate, honest, loyal and restlessly fought for honor and justice. So does UHANS U300.
It puts itself in the fight among traditional smartphones and rugged phones, using a innovative chic design to differentiate from them, regardless of what the world would say about it. Not every phone can do such Mercedes-Benz design like U300. All the streamlines, titanium alloy and clous de Paris incarnate the style of simplicity in an understated way , which*differentiates*itself from the*traditional*luxury smartphones from Vertu, Hanmac. That's act of self-awareness, rebellion of rule-breaker, rise of innovation. You deserve a*marvelous*and adventurous smartphone that objects to the ordinary.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I41GRjHdLYg&t=1s
The chivalry lives more than that on the outside. The compact design as well as the IP65 allow the body to resist any water splash and dust in daily life, as tough as an armored knight. Its consists of the MediaTek MT6750, 4GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage, tough Gorilla Glass 4, 5.5-inch FHD display and a huge 4750mAh battery. All these are the invisible armor, sword and shield that define the chivalry of U300 in a strong and pleasantly noble way. Though the adventure ahead may be dark, it will still shine in glory.http://www.uhans.cc/product/U300
It is the fight for honor and loyalty to the values of life in this world. The chivalry never dies.

my rom is Uhans U300 Version: DK9FA2FWTAG.HSA.UHANS.F.SA.1118.V3.01 – full_pri6750_66t_m-user 6.0 MRA58K and never fing OT.
I Heard about new rom 3.02 22nd of december.. strange that i don't have any OTA..
Just found malware from famous adups.fota :
Camera quality is not good enough (it's Panasonic MN34153).
Speaker quality is really good, earpiece volume and quality is not comparabile to the speaker one (and volume is also lowest than expected).
Like i have seen in Bluboo Maya Max, also second slot seems to have 3G capability (not common on dual sim device, but seems to be common for MT6750 powered devices)

Facing major issues regarding connectivity. Both slots are not working very well with GSM/LTE, most of the times they do not work at all. Build quality is also not that good. Seems to have a faulty device
Here is the firmware: http://www.needrom.com/download/uhans-u300/
Unfortunately the 3.02 is not available there.
Mine has: DK9FA2FWTAG.HSA.UHANS.HB.F.SA.1222.3.02
@megthebest
What scanner are you using? Do you have LTE or 3G?

No issue on the sim slot, 3g/4g seems to work correctly on my device. Build quality is perfect in some areas and poor in others (upper frame shows irregular plastic mould, sim tray is not so stable and tightned).
Malwarebytes is the scanner i used.
I'm testing battery that is really impressive.

Same probs with build quality here, but the probs with sim-slot is a no go. Will try to dwongrade firmware and see if that is the problem. Battery is working very good, but it is only 4.650 mAh.

Well you are blaming about build quality, I got a completely scratched (noticeable damage here and there) review unit so...something wrong is happening there.
Mine has also a pre-applied glass screen protector (scratched too :facepalm).

If you don't believe me, check this photo. The screw is stuck outside the chassis and the chassis itself is full of scratches. This kind of damage was already here, not caused by me.
