The iOcean X8 Mini Pro has launched for $190, which has us questioning why would anyone buy the UMi Zero.
Sleek, glass, alloy, and stylish, this is how we would describe both the iOcean X8 mini Pro and the Umi Zero, but where as the UMi is almost $300 the little X8 is on sale now and at less than $200.
The iOcean X8 Mini Pro has a 5-inch 720p display, fine for the screen size, octacore processor, 2GB RAM, dual SIM support and 32GB memory. Like the UMi Zero it doesn’t have LTE, only WCDMA 900/2100mhz and GSM 900/1800/1900mhz.
Sure there are differences between this and the UMi, such as the lack of AMOLED display and the rear camera being 8 mega-pixel rather than 13mp, but at over $100 less, it makes the iOcean a good looker at a great price.

I like iOcean, much more than Umi… Once I followed Umi X3…then it disappeared… Umi Zero is a joke. So this is a good news for a good price 😉
I own a Umi Cross and it is a good phone, the battery lasts a few days, and it fell on the ground too many times…and it still works. I could do a one year user experience review if Andy was interested 🙂
