The
Koobee Max is an impressive 5-inch
1080 phone with
quad-core processor. It also manages to pack a
13 mega-pixel rear camera with large f2.2 aperture plus the latest, greatest, version of
Android Jelly Bean 4.2 comes as standard.
All in all the
Koobee has the makings of one of the great
MTK phones of 2013, and a
phone which now be attracting potential
UMi X2 customers who are sick of the
delay. But that is not the case and here's why.
The Max only features 1GB RAM rather than the UMi's 2GB, the overall design and branding looks rather cheap, but the price is actually very high at 2500 Yuan ($402)!
Koobee do have a few tricks up their sleeve though as the
Max measures in at a just 8mm, the 5-inch display has a Gorilla Glass protective finish and the
quad-core MT6589 CPU is running at a faster 1.5GHz rather than 1.2 as we have seen in most current phones!
The Koobee Max should be available in stores and online from April.
