This is what we like to see! A well thought out phone with a balanced hardware set up, security features and even a 4G LTE data connection!
All to often we report on a phone that almost hits every nail on the head then falls at the last hurdle! Either it has an ugly design, lacks LTE or gets a tiny amount of RAM which lets the phone as a whole down.
The MPIE G7 is one of the few phones that actually checks a lot of the boxes while still remaining well priced at less than $150!
Boating FDD LTE, a fingerprint scanner, and 2GB RAM already shows pretty good value for money, but the list continues with a 1280 x 720 HD 5-inch display, Android 4.4 Kitkat OS, micro SD for up to 64GB cards, and dual SIM!

Ok so it has a quad-core MT6582 processor rather than an octacore and the rear camera is only 8 mega-pixel, but as a package it all looks to be fully equipped and should perform well enough for most users.
Throw in the fact that MPIE have clone the Oppo Find 7 and you have a phone that it going to be drawing in a lot of attention, especially in the run up to Christmas.
What do you think of the MPIE G7? Do you agree that is looks like a well rounded phone for the money or do you expect more from a $150 smartphone?

The interessting part will be the (FDD-)LTE-frequencies.
Only Elephone (P3000/P3000S) clearly states their working FDD-LTE-frequencies.

This is a definite purchase for me then.
150$ is cheaper than most unlocked 4G hotspots.
Thank you Andi, I haven’t looked at the source.
Regards
what about camera (back and front) quality?
Thanks
Yep you’re right Andi, it’s nice to see something this cheap with 2gb Ram and a 720p panel! Good job MPIE! 🙂
