One thing we can say about IUNI is that they don’t like to stick to a specific design evident again in the new IUNI U1 smartphone.
In the 2 years since IUNI have been releasing phones we have seen the brand drastically change the appearance of their phones 3 times now. Usually a phone maker will keep design elements of their phones similar for brand recognition but not IUNI.
The U2 was a small full alloy unibody phone, The U3 a larger plastic body with all new shame (the U3 mini followed a similar look) and now the IUNI U1 has an all together different design.
Of the 3 design styles this latest one is my least favourite and looks a little like Chinese phones of yesteryear, but if you fancy a budget IUNI device it could be a good place to start.
Gizchina News of the week
Specifications include a 1.3Ghz (Mediatek?) processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal memory, 8 mega-pixel front and rear cameras and IUNI OS based on Android 5.0 Lollipop. Designwise the front of the phone a 5-inch 1280 x 720 display while the rear of the 142 x 69.6 x 8.4mm phone is a little odd and we cannot tell if this is a dual camera design or if IUNI have just designed it to look that way with one of the ‘cameras’ being the actual LED flash.
Surprisingly the rather thick phone has a battery size of just 2000mAh. Fine for these specs (we hope) but surely a larger battery would have been possible in such a roomy device?

Pure and utter crap. That’s all I can say about this.
Why? Its a low end device. Some persons really value such.
I love lower end devices, I am not a power user by any means and 720p is my favorite display. But a phone with that ugly of a body, an obvious fake dual camera and a battery that might last 4 hours? No thank you. There are much better options out there for what this well sell for.
Hmmm. I see your point.
The second dot might be a fingerprint sensor, although it’s very small.
I thought that at first too then I said wait a second there is no flash. The only way that second dot is a scanner or fingerprint sensor is if they are using a camera with no flash.
Hideous.

I was waiting for a new IUNI device but this is very disappointing.
What about the capacitive halo button?

will anyone here review the TCL 3S? looks like a promising entry- to mid-level-phone for a very reasonable price and a sleek design. 🙂
