Real photos of the Oukitel U9 surface

Oukitel’s newest phone has been shown off in real hands on photos giving us the first clear look at the 5.5-inch FHD device.

The Oukitel U9 is an interesting product as it has remained in the news even though we know very little about the phone. So far the only confirmed details are an alloy chassis which uses nano molding technology, dual 2.5D glass panels, and a 5.5-inch FHD display from JDI using Gorilla Glass 3.

With a rounded body and 2.5D glass front and rear the design sounds similar to the latest Vivo phones, and in these photos the phone looks rather good in the flesh too. High end materials seem to be backed by good build quality.

Oukitel have also published a video showing a scratch test of both front and rear panels of the phone. The video doesn’t reveal any other details, but does show us the phone running a non-final UI.

Searching the web we have found rumours and claimed specs for the Oukitel U9 but we are not sure what to believe. Apparently the phone will feature a 16 mega-pixel main camera, octacore Mediatek chipset, and 3GB RAM all for $200, but we will have to wait and see if these details are true.
