  • Cheap Chinajunk

    I had problems right from start, battery emptied from 100% to 0% in minutes. After couple months screen went black and phone became useless. i can hear phone booting and that i got new messages but screen stays black.

    I know it was cheap but i ordered this model because Bluboo advertised it as tough and unbreakable model, they even released video where they throw it around and dropped it from 2nd floor... So stay away from and buy from other manufacturer!

    Pros
    • price was nice

  • Cheap smartphone, easy to root!

    Elegant but made from plastic.
    Almost excellent display, perfect touch, thin, good for one hand handling.
    Biggest disadvantages are poor speakers and low quality microphone.

  • Good bang for the buck

    It's a nice cheap phone, with 2gbram and 16gb rom for less than 70euros. I bought it from a chinese reseller, who apparently filled it with malware, i had to format it and reflash a new rom. A good everyday phone, only buy from trusted sellers tho.

    Pros
    • price
    • ok for everyday use
    Cons
    • no gaming
    • no custom roms

  • Cheap phone, OK performance (great for the price), Touch screen stopped working without falling or a broken screen

    beautiful, nice performance for the price, best characteristics for the price range ok screen, mediocre camera, bad low light photos

    cant hear it ring (need the vibration to realise sb is calling),
    fell once and there were many scratches on the sides but phone kept working (even the side "metal" broke at one place), the heigh of the fall wasnt big (~60 cm).
    two months later (non related in my opinion) touchscreen started to not work well. almost a month it was really problematic with 3-5 minutes of downtime everytime the screen became unresponsive.
    This resulted to the phone's screen stopping working after a low battery turn-off.

    total time owned about 6 months

    Pros
    • cheap price
    Cons
    • built quality
    • bad audio quality
    • really low sound

    If you are looking for a purposeful phone with nfc, then this is the best choice. If nfc is not needed, then there are better options.

    Bought for a friend.

    Inexpensive apparatus meets all requirements of the budget category. After some use left a good impression.

Ki Cost-effective
Score
Not available
What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
