The Elephone P6000 is turning out to be a heck of a good phone with every passing day (…every passing ROM?). The developers have been dishing out some popular 3rd party ROMs to the phone.
Back when we reviewed the Elephone P6000, the phone impressed us with the all-round good performance and above average build quality. It was only the belief that there was going to be a lack of community support (including mods and ROMs) for the phone since it ran a MediaTek SoC. It turns out that isn’t likely going to be the case, for Elephone is seemingly working hard on bringing as many 3rd party ROMs to the P6000 as possible.
Gizchina News of the week
In the following video, the Elephone P6000 is shown running Meizu‘s Flyme OS, stock AOSP Android v5.0 Lollipop and perhaps the most popular of them all — CyanogenMod 12. There isn’t a lot of Flyme OS action in the video though, which we hope changes with a following video. Take a look for yourself:

i just can’t see myself trusting them again since they lied about the camera sensor, gorilla glass, and actual battery; on the P3000 scandal thing that ppl evrywhere ended up finding out about.
If you have problems with companies lying you might want to stear clear of Chinese electronics entirely. Every company has fudged specs or failed to deliver on promises at some point in their life cycle. And that extends beyond China as well.
Not at all man, many chinese companies take themselves very seriously. There will be some less serious ones but Meizu, Jiayu or Kingzone to name a few are very well respected and all the reviews known websites have made detailed analisis of their phones with great results.
Their are some that take themselves seriously but just about all of them have had some misstep over the course of their history including some of the ones you mentioned. My comment was bashing Chinese companies, I wouldn’t be so active on this site if I didn’t like them. I was more pointing out that Ulefone and Elephone are hardly the only ones who have been caught.
Phones might have problems, buy right down lying about specs are not something any of the companies i’ve mentioned did.
You can prove without a shadow of a doubt that they intentionally tried to lie about their specs? You can say for certain that it wasn’t just a cross up between the engineer and marketing departments?
They said the sony sensors were out of stock so they had to replace them with the generic ones (for the cameras), and that they were sorry for the inconvencience. IN other words: yea we were lying we got caught sorry ^^
Other companies with a more serious lvl of management and handling of business in general like meizu, xiaomi, and other smaller good brands with good rep, havent had any of those problems. Just the smartpant ppl of elephone.
You have your companies mixed up. It was Ulefone who was caught with misleading specs. The way a lot of these companies operate, once they put in an order for a certain part they “leak” that part as being part of that phone. Before they ever get that part in stock or even manufacture a phone. Sometimes shortages really do happen. Could they have been more open about it? Absolutely, but proving they purposely lied is very difficult.
You mention Xiaomi. They have been accused of using artificial supply shortages to drive the prices/demand up in countries like India, which is what One Plus does with their invite system. Is that not just as dishonest as listing the wrong spec? Like I said all these companies have some kind of skeleton in their closet.
As I said before I don’t have anything mixed up. Ule was only about camera. Elephone lied about camera, battery and gorilla glass. Ule just really apologized about it.
I don’t have anything mixed up both those companies kinda did the same. Just elephone with more specs. Ulefone just the camera
