5.5-inch Mpai 909t with fingerprint security costs $150

Another smartphone maker making use of a useful fingerprint scanner unlock feature is Mpai, on their budget minded Mpai 909T.

Fingerprint recognition is a feature which many Chinese smartphone makers are now adding to their phones. From flagship models like the Vivo Xplay 3S to more budget conscious devices like the Elephone P2000 and now the Mpai 909t. In the past I was a little skeptical about using a fingerprint reader, but in use found it to be fast and simple to use. Once you get use to it (and depending on the quality of the scanner) you can easily unlock a phone while removing it from your pocket with a simple one handed operation.

The Mpai 909T offers this solution along with a 5.5-inch 1280 x 720 HD display, quad-core MT6582 processor, 8 mega-pixel main camera, Android 4.4 Kitkat and large 3000mAh battery for just $150.

We haven’t managed to test the phone ourselves so would love to hear your feedback on the phone. At least on paper the Mpai 909T looks pretty good value for money.
