Unboxign & Review (Italian Language):
Review Bluboo Xfire
Package, Content, Aesthetics:
The package is matte black, with the brand Bluboo (Silver) in relief and Beyond Your Life (Black) polished; the signs on the model and features are on the sticker located on the back of the box.
Box contents: Smartphone, 1 Power Adapter with USB socket Italian 5V 0.7A, 1 USB cable, 1 instruction manual in English, extra screen protection film (1 already applied)
- External dimensions of the smartphone in line with other devices by 5 "; it measures 140.2 x 71 x 9.3 mm for just over 148g of weight.
- Construction of good quality, the use of relatively inexpensive materials, the thin metallic finish on the frame side, adorns the otherwise fairly classic and economic structure.
- On the left side we find keys, and the right side we find the volume rocker on the top and the power button slightly lower.
- At the top we find the audio jack and the micro USB socket; on the underside of the microphone.
- In the back at the top center we are the 5 Mpixel camera Omnivision OV5648 f/2.4 (8 megapixel interpolated) and the LED flash, and the lower the speaker positioned slightly off center (unfortunately with a planar shape of the cover, the audio will be muffled with a minimum device on the table).
- In the front we find the earpiece at the top, the camera GC2145/55 2Mpixel f / 2.8 (5 megapixels interpolated), the LED flash and the light sensor / proximity.
- The keys are soft touch around the screen and include the menu button.
- Cover removable; the absence of special processes and materials used give the slipperiness and heightened susceptibility to retain fingerprints.
- Outer pane with pre-applied film from the house; It is provided a further film in the package.
- Display brightness average, good viewing angle; QHD 960x540 pixels IPS LCD screen with colors and sharpness well played good for the category.
- Touch sensitive enough, but with multitouch 2 touches, writing is quite fast with Swype function that you type with two fingers (keyboard used google)
- Two sim slots: A Mini SIM and a Micro Sim 4G (with dynamic selection software).
- Presence slot MicroSD up to 64Gb (32Gb tested).
- Removable battery from 2750mAh declared, to the test with amperomento. We found about 2200mAh; however, thanks to the screen shortly resolved and the energy-hungry little cpu, we managed to do a very good score Geekbench:
- Android 5.1 with customization in icons and launcher 3.
- Open the app and switch between apps quickly enough .. stock browser with a few bumps as always (we recommend Chrome)
- Launcher obsolete functions for speed and customization (as council Nova Launcher launcher).
- Management of good 8Gb of internal ROM that are available in a partition to 4.5GB for apps and data.
- Good management 1Gb ram by Android 5.1 .. more than 500Mb of ram vacated after loading some apps into memory at startup.
Connectivity:
WiFi b / g with no problem hooking stable, good power.
BT 4 tested pairing with headsets and car, no problems
OTG: NOT Working
GPS: pretty poor, with cloudy sky outside has also fixed in 30 seconds only 3 satellites, with an accuracy of 10 meters .. I intend to test it better.
Camera:
- Main camera 5 megapixel Omnivision f / 2.4 (8Mpixel interpolated) that produces the shots just enough daylight; good focus but low power flash and yellow.
Camera Interface stock Mediatek; when using the flash or light conditions not favorable and the quality of the shots drops dramatically and the focus is not always correct.
- Poor performance video, slow focus and suffers from shuttering (full resolution HD video and 3GP).
- Secondary camera for Selfie 2Mpixel fixed focus with mediocre quality.
Back camera:
Front camera:
Bench:
Antutu 5.7.1 over 19000 punti..risultato in line with that of other cpu quad core MT6735P 1Ghz.
Geekbench 3 with 1355 points in multi-core test and 482 in the single-core test.
https://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/3563317
Geekbench Battery Test (over 9h and 56 'screen on time, I would say very good for a real 2200mAh and about the CPU and also qHD screen!).
https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/118709
Audio:
Good sound quality, slightly lower volumes of speaker and earpiece (a classic for mediatek).
Position of the speaker rear which happens to be unhappy if you usually place the device on the table and then playing Expect a loss of volume.
Good vibration and sound with headphones pretty good.
Conclusion:
PRO:
- Screen that despite having a resolution not excellent, showing good brightness, color and viewing angle of the display
- Good assembly and solid feel that the smartphone.
- Price about 70 € (during the tenders on Wednesday at 12:00 you will find it even less than $ 50 if you're lucky) http://bluboo.com.cn/#shop
- 2G, 3G and 4G (on 4G bands 1,3,7,20, then there is also the band 20 to 800Mhz essential especially with the operator wind/Italy)
- Dual SIM (+ Mini Micro sim) and MicroSD card support (declared support up to 32Gb, tested and working with 64Gb Samsung)
- Android 5.1 practically stock of September 10, 2015
- Possibility of installing the root kingroot APK: https://sites.google.com/site/androidxdacom/file/Kingroot_V4.5.0.902.apk?attredirects=0
- Battery not being from 2750mAh as stated, due to the hardware low-level will take at the end of the day so easy
- Gestures screen off and double tap to wake
AGAINST:
- "Only" 8Gb 1Gb ram and rom of which approximately 4.5GB available (if we think of the 50 € to take it in the promo, this detail takes second place)
- GPS to be fixed probably by software
- Cameras are far from the expectations, below average in good light, poor in low light.. flash power is very poor and light is yellow
- Touch 2 touches; no good for fast writing people
- The cover retains fingerprints and is slippery
- No No Compass and Gyroscope
- No support OTG
- No LED notification
- The keys to the screen though excellent, steal valuable space on the desktop and the keyboard while typing
- No cover or film since it is a brand new product

Hi, I think now to choose between Bluboo Xfire and Doogee Y100X, for me games are not important, but stability, network signal, battery and camera is important. Please help to choose asap, as I buy it for underage child who will not play in android games. Thanks !

Doogee is [email protected] in general, the battery is better with Bluboo, Doogee gave certain fake specs but it has a better display and it's twice as expensive than Bluboo

And why Bluboo will be better phone brand ??
Nope, both phones can be found for around 75$ with discount codes and 85$ without. As I understand both phones have decent battery, so how about network signal, smoothness of browsing and navigation in phone UI, photo camera? I really don't care that bluboo is better for games..
DOOGEE NOVA Y100X vs Bluboo Xfire (same price)

Doogee had a fiasco with displays and batteries, see topics here or on any other forum. Nova has a 2.5 D glass surface which is a neat marketing trick and an alleged 2200 mAh battery which is a 1800 one, just to find this out once you open the unit and see the sign on the battery or run benchmark tests. I am not saying Bluboo is better, but certainly more credible and less fake than Doogee. Your call.

But bluboo is 2.5D too, and anyone can confirm bluboo display matrix quality and real capacity of battery (2750 mah or no) ?

Today i receive Xfire, in few days you will have my first look. I have had doogee y100, and many others, only fake specs for battery and bad internal rom partition.

Hi friend, I just see that you had received umi emax mini and umi fair, it's so good. If you can tell me who send you. I also want to get one to review. Thanks

Hi, received mine (ordered last week) from Coolicool and Myefox
Here's the translated (with google) review
Unboxing & Review (you can buy on Myefox):
Review Umi FAIR [/ B] [/ I]
Package, Content, Aesthetics: [/ B]
The packaging is characterized by extreme compactness and the use of recycled cardboard printed with the Fair model and fingerprint; the information on the characteristics and the description of the location of the buttons / functions are within the same area of ​​separation between smartphone and accessories.
Box contents: Smartphone with pre-applied protective film screen, 1 AC outlet USB with Italian 5V 1A and 1 USB cable, 1 Battery 2000mAh; no headphone is extra protective films.
- External dimensions of the smartphone in line with other devices by 5 "; it measures 142 x 72 x 8.5mm for a little more than 160g weight.
- Construction of good quality materials, while economic return good feeling to the touch, the metallic finish of the side frame, adorns the otherwise fairly anonymous and classical structure.
- On the left side we find keys, and the right side we find the volume rocker on the top and the power button slightly lower.
- At the top we are the only audio jack; on the underside there is the Micro USB socket and the microphone.
- In the back top center we find the camera 8 megapixel Sony IMX164 f / 2 [/ URL] (13 megapixel interpolated) and slightly to the side with dual LED flash; down the speaker positioned slightly off center (unfortunately with a planar shape of the cover, the audio will be muffled with a minimum device on the table).
- In the front we find the earpiece at the top, the camera GC2335 2Mpixel f / 2.8 and light sensors / proximity.
- The keys are soft touch and three are inside the screen, unfortunately do not include the menu button.
- Cover removable; the absence of special processes and the material used confer slipperiness.
- Outer pane with pre-applied film from the house; the film does not have oleophobic treatment but after a first approach "difficult to move" proves still acceptable and durable enough. Only negative for the applied film, is given by the fact that, being clipped to cover the entire front surface, the glass of the display with the edges slightly curved, make that the adherence to 1mm on the edge there is not, then is He raised slightly to the whole perimeter; there are still problems of possible detachment, given the protection of the side frame wire.
- Display brightness and good viewing angles; HD 1280x720 pixels IPS LCD screen with colors well played, good sharpness for the category, and white balance after all good (slightly turning to yellow in my example, readily adjusted with aims vision).
- Touch-sensitive and comes with multitouch 5 touches, writing is quite fast with Swype function that you type with two fingers (keyboard used google)
- Two sim slots: Two Micro Sim 4G (with dynamic selection software).
- Presence slot MicroSD up to 64Gb (tested).
- Removable battery 2000mAh declared, to the test with amperomento and crossing data with the weight of about 36g, we found about 1800mAh; however, thanks to the screen shortly resolved and the energy-hungry little cpu, the busy day is completed without any problem.
*- Android 5.1 without any customization and usually 3 launcher.
- Open the app and switch between apps quickly enough .. stock browser with a few bumps as always (Chrome suggest that while consuming a lot of ram makes more accessible navigation)
- Management of good 8Gb of internal ROM that are available in a partition to 5Gb for apps and data.
- Good management 1Gb ram by Android 5.1 .. more than 500Mb of ram vacated after loading some apps into memory at startup.
- Presence of Root factory but unfortunately also a Chinese app One Cleaner for cleaning ram / tool various "carrier of various problems and delays"; I recommend that you uninstall it because you have the root!
[COLOR = "# FF0000"] Connectivity: [/ color] [/ b]
WiFi b / g with no problem hooking stable, good power.
BT 4 tested pairing with headsets, car and other smartphones without problems
OTG: Properly functioning
GPS: in the media, the outside has fixato cold in 40 seconds, 6 satellites, with accuracy of 10 meters .. I'll have to test it better navigation.
[COLOR = "# FF0000"] Camera: [/ color] [/ b]
- Main camera Sony 8Mpixel f / 2 (13Mpixel interpolated) that produces most of the shots that discrete daylight; a little slow to focus; camera interface stock Mediatek; the flash equipped with two flash close together, allows some shots in more scarce in the light condition, as long as the object to be illuminated is not too far.
- Sufficient video performance, slightly slower focus which means that arise shuttering; video recorded maximum HD resolution.
- Secondary camera for Selfie 2Mpixel fixed focus with mediocre quality with face detection function.
[COLOR = "# FF0000"] Bench: [/ color] [/ b]
Antutu 5.7.1 almost 19000 punti..risultato in line with that of other cpu quad core MT6735P 1Ghz.
Geekbench 3 with 1334 points in multi-core test and 479 in the single-core test.
https://browser.primatelabs.com/us...Weighs 160g .. you could do something better!

@megthebest Hi, received mine (ordered last week) from Coolicool and Myefox

So, like it? Upgrade rom with last october 14th version you find in needrom

I bought my UMI Fair from Banggood, and so far I find this device totally awsome! It runs smooth and has great feel to it, build quality is awsome! Fingerprint reader is okay but not perfect, camera is good in good light conditions, so far the battery is so much better than my Ulefone Be Touch 2 (but that is also terrible battery wise)
I give the UMI 9 out of 10 points, extremely great phone for absolute no money!

So it has provided you with the nice choices for men and women. It sports by 6inch 2.5D FHD Corning Gorilla Glass screen, and the dimensions of this phone are 158.6×82.8×8.5 mm. Because of large battery, the overall weight has 240.9 grams. But that’s ok for me.
What’s more, you can see the front camera, light sensor, the speaker, LED notification light on the front side above the display.
There are 3.5mm Headphone jack and IR port on the top of the smartphone for TVs, home appliances, etc.On the back side of the phone, there are fingerprint sensor and 13MP camera with dual LED flash. In the center of the back, there is a Leagoo logo and, below the removable cover, there is a speaker grill.
The power button and volume up and down buttons are placed on the right side of the phone. You can see there is a micro card slot, and the micro USB port is located in the bottom right side.
Made by LG, display on this phone breaks the 5.7″ boundary, featuring 6″. Manufactured in LTPS technology, this 6-inch full HD “monster” will provide 30% more brightness than a standard LCD and, it will reduce power consumption by 20%.
By the way, 6 inch FHD Corning Gorilla screen provides you with nice viewing angles and superb contrast. You can use your smartphone freely during sunlight and moonlight.
In conclusion, Leagoo shark 1 has a great design in terms of its appearance. So i believe 6inch smartphone will meet your nice needs.

Which one is better between Shark 1 and Oukitel K10000? I love to get one

Thanks for your advice. I will go for Oukitel K10000. Does Oukitel K10000 has freezing or hanging issue?

If battery life is the most important thing to you, then get the K10000. It also has a very bright display. I've seen somewhere that Leagoo Shark 1 scores around 10-11 hours in PCMark Battery test while K10000 scores 29 hours. You can find reviews for both the devices at devicespecifications.com

Is Oukitel K10000 free from freezing or hanging ROM ? How smooth or fast is its ROM ? Most China made phones are plagued with freezing or hanging issue.

Dual stand by with MicroSD
Can I use 2 SIM cards with memory card together on Leagoo shark or there is same "problem" like on Oukitel K10000?

Can you please share the wallpapers found in this device? thanks.

Hang on FumiJ, i'm confused. In your 'real pictures' of the Leagoo shark, the bezel/border is waaaaay thicker than in any other photos i've seen, or the photos posted in this initial thread. It looks like a completely different phone. I can't get a straight answer out of leagoo about what the phone actually looks like. Are you sure these photos are of the same phone/version?

of course, it's true about the leagoo shark 1 real pictures, i have seen the real phone, you should trust me.

Hmm,really nice phone I just seen,on geekbuying is only 160 euros

Hi,
I also bought one, But mine has a little bit trouble with focusing while taking a picture.
It is working fine while shooting a video, but whenever i try to take a picture, most of the time the picture gets a focusing issue (resulting in too much or too less light).
Did you encounter similair problems?

How Long Can 1% Battery of UHANS H5000 Last?
It really drives people crazy when he/she need to use his/her phone for emergency, only to find out that there’s only 1% battery left. This is because many smartphones cannot last very long with only 1% battery. UHANS H5000 seems to hang on 1% for about an hour.
No kidding. The 1% battery of UHANS H5000 has been tested for the time it can last. It is a very big surprise that the phone has done such a great job of power consumption. You can watch the video below.
The UHANS H5000 was said to carry 5000mAh battery capacity. Now considering the weight, thickness of the phone and the power consumption, the company has changed it to 4500mAh. It still packs with MediaTek MT6737, 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM, 5MP front camera and 8MP rear camera.
A great campaign allowing users to buy UHANS devices is up on the company's website: http://bit.ly/2ehIEhG​

UHANS H5000 vs Samsung Galaxy S7: Battery Test
The battery of UHANS H5000 is 4500 mAh, which allows users to do a lot of what they wanna do. From the previous battery test video, we know that UHANS H5000 has very great power consumption. How is it compared to other devices?
For this comparison, Samsung Galaxy S7 was picked to be the competitor. Both phones have been fully charged and put them into the same gaming test for half an hour. Though the battery capacities are not the same, we can still see the different consumption between UHANS H5000 and Samsung Galaxy S7.
It seems that the battery of H5000 is quite a highlight. You can expect to have it in hand and test it. By the way, there will be a special campaign for the Double-Eleventh Day. You can stay tuned by following this thread.​

UHANS H5000 Survived from Dropping Tests
We can hardly say that UHANS H5000 is a phone with any particular shinny spots, but it is decent and budget-friendly. Well, specs are not everything, because if you look further, you can find that UHANS H5000 is actually a very tough buddy.
To prove it, UHANS did some regular dropping tests with pocket height and hand-hold height. The H5000 has been tortured for several times under the protection of a protective case. Nonetheless, it still works very fine.

You right. There were some issues with that user (together with an XDA moderator) so he is completely ignored by me (also added to my Ignore List on XDA, thankfully this option is available) and i won't touch his threads anymore. (even though some of his posts/threads are against XDA rules)
You are free to follow the thread you prefer, this is officially followed by UHANS too.

Review (part 1)
Introduction
This is the DOOGEE Y6 Max.
Hardware
Together with the Y6, DOOGEE choose to release an over-sized version of it with a giant 6.5" screen, the Y6 Max. This is definitely a ph-ablet, not a smartphone, but its size isn't as bad as you might expect.
It is powered by a Mediatek MT6750T SOC clocked at 1.5GHz, with a Samsung S5K3L8 13MP Rear Camera and a GalaxyCore GC5024 (not Hynix HM553 as declared) 5MP Front Camera. Compared to the Y6, the Storage Configuration is similar, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of RAM, just in the middle between the Standard and the Piano Black Y6.
Unboxing
Packaging comes with many accessories: 1x Micro-USB Cable, 1x 5V/2A USB Charger, 1x Quick Start Guide, 1x In-Ear Earphones (medium quality), 1x TPU Cover, 1x Plastic Screen Protector, 1x SIM Card Tray Eject Tool, 1x Nano to Micro SIM adapter and the Smartphone (of course). A screen protector is already applied.
The Chassis is pretty well made, almost completely made of Metal (expect the upper and the lower bands) and feels solid, but considering its size it isn't so comfortable to be handled without the TPU Cover. Let's call it slippery.
As already said, this is a ph-ablet so you can't expect a compact device. It is 17.45x8.90x0.96cm, with thin bezels. It weights 234g, impressive considering that there are some 5.5 inches smartphones with almost the same weight.
On the front side there is the common 2.5D Curved Display and the upper front side of the device features the standard set of things: a Front-Facing Camera (GalaxyCore GC5024), an Earpiece, and the Sensors hole that includes Light, Proximity and Gesture Sensors. The Notification LED is not here, a bit disappointing.
On the lower front side there is the Touch Keys area, with Menu, Home and Back touch buttons. No Backlight is here.
On the back side there is the Unibody Metal Cover.
The upper rear side of the device features the Camera Sensor supported by a Dual-LED Flashlight (not Dual-Tone), a Fingerprint Scanner and the DOOGEE logo.
On the lower rear side there are some Logos and Words about the Device's Certifications, nothing else. The Speaker is positioned on the lower side of the device.
Device
Screen
I have no words to describe this screen. It is just great, with almost perfect color accuracy, high brightness and excellent white balance. Well Done DOOGEE!
Light Sensor supports smooth light changes, this is its maximum brightness.
Viewing Angles nearly as good as you would expect from an IPS screen, just slightly worse.
Camera
Just like many Smartphone released in the Q4 2016, also this one features a Samsung 3L8 13MP sensor, with PDAF. Photos Quality is decent, the amount of noise isn't as high as i would have expected but the image detail is pretty low, noticeable if you zoom the image.
"HDR off" on the left and "HDR on" on the right. HDR photos seems to be a bit better, but the amount of noise increases too.
Macro Photos look pretty good, almost impressive.
The Dual-LED Flashlight provides enough light to help the sensor in low-light conditions.
As regards Video Recording, 1080p videos are smooth, with an high level of details and no stuttering issue.
Front Camera records sufficient photos for video-chat and occasional shots. Also, it seems to be a Wide-Angle variant.
Audio
Speaker's Quality is impressive. Even though the amount of low frequencies is low, the sound quality is great. One of the best i have ever tested as regards Sound Quality. No issues with the Earpiece, perfect while in-call and to play Whatsapp Voice Messages.
As regards the Microphone, it is calibrated for any kind of usage, everyone was able to hear me correctly. There is no Secondary Microphone for Noise Suppression though.
GPS
This is where the Y6 Max has a weird behavior. It wasn't able to lock any satellite indoors, but outdoors it worked almost perfect with an issue: the GPS Signal was not stable at all. Sometimes, from 17 satellites it drops to less than 8. I hope to see some improvements with a software update.
Indoors on the left, outdoors on the right.
Telephony, Mobile Network & WiFi
DOOGEE, like some other brands, provides full european bands support, with 4G Band 20 (some other Chinese Smartphones don't have it). 4G Signal Reception doesn't seem to have any issues, stable and with decent speed.
3G Signal Reception is excellent, actually I never managed to get connected to the 2G Network of my Mobile Operator because there was always some 3G Signal available. (luckily there are no coverage issues here)
WiFi 5GHz is supported here, working sufficiently well with my 802.11n Dual-Band Connection. It isn't able to get full speed (100/20), but it is still a bit higher than 2.4GHz speed. Connected at 150MBps, i might have expected higher speeds.
Battery Life
I have measured the real battery capacity using my USB Tester, and, unlike previous DOOGEE devices, it seems that this time the real battery capacity is higher than the declared one. (declared 4300mAh, real ~4450mAh).
This is the Geekbench Battery Test, the battery runtime is as good as you would expect from a 4300mAh battery.

As regards battery charging times, the 5V/2A charger is enough to provide acceptable charging times, even though a Mediatek Pump Express charger would have been preferred.
Software
This is where this device loses its quality, seriously. DOOGEE choose to use, somehow, a so-called Dido OS (based on Android 6.0). This is a completely customized OS, similar to MIUI, but with lots of UI parts taken from iOS, and some words are badly translated into English. I do not agree at all with this choice, it reduces the Device's Quality and compromises the usage of the device.
Mediatek easy-to-use Gestures are still here, together with the usual Scheduled power on & off menu.
This is something i do not understand, there is a Gyroscope, but there is no Magnetometer/Compass. Weird.
The Fingerprint Scanner is accurate. I managed to unlock the screen almost everytime. As regards the unlock speed, it is instant.

Very good
Your review is very good!
I think this device should last a battery long time.
Do you want to use dido os as another launcher?

Yeah you right.

It is an amazing phone, but until now we have no root or custom recovery.

Anybody out there can make twrp or cwm recovery? I ask in twrp compiling thread but it looks like there is no help for noobs like me. I have only 2h time at day on PC or mobile and no glue from that.

Hey Brother.
I have an answer.
I also bought a y6 max.
But there is a problem.
It is not a 5-point multi-touch.
It was actually a two-point-multi-touch.
Do you know?

What is a 5 point multi touch better for? My touch works perfect for me, never cared about 2-point or 5-point.

There is a touch when you type the keyboard quickly. These days, the form is more than 5 points.

Be patient, something will be released soon.

I have two questions regarding the Gyroscope and 3D of Doogee Y6 Max 3D.
The Gyroscope works correctly or is it a drifting inverted gyroscope? Apps for AR, VR and games play right?
How do you rate the 3D display in comparison to products from other manufacturers?
For example, the Eye-Tracking holographic 3D display of the Takee 1 smartphone is outstanding. Playing 3D videos is a gorgeous experience! However, it suffers from a serious Gyroscope bug.

I think there is a working TWRP on a Spanish forum called movilesdualsim.com but I can not confirm it because my own phone is still at the mail even I ordered it over 3 weeks ago from banggood.com
