Blackview have released an OTA update in response to complaints raised about the quality of the camera on the Alife P1 Pro.
Complaints filled by customers on the Blackview official forums and to the companies customer support has led developers to release an OTA update that will hopefully fix these issues. The OTA will begin to roll out later today (17th September) and should be visible when checking for updates in the settings of the Alife P1 Pro.
Gizchina News of the week
Blackview inform us that the OTA optimizes photos taken from both camera, plus they have added a few more optimizations to the system too;
- Optimized cameras.
- Fixed duplicate icon bug.
- Simplified fingerprint scanner set up.
- Both SIM cards support 4G networks.
- Correct inaccurate battery indicator.
The Blackview Alife P1 Pro is a 5.5-inch, 64bit Mediatek phone with fingerprint scanner, 2GB RAM and 13 mega-pixel main camera. The phone is on sale through resellers from as little as $120.
I was going to say how nice it is for a company to have an open forum and respond correctly to issues raised (cough), but just had a look and can’t see a single mention of camera issues, so is this just a case of any news is good news..
I have this sheet phone.
It overheats and slower than my S3 when playing candy crush.
What the sheet man.
I updated my phone with Ota but second sim working 2g not 4g no difference between old one & the new one update… Bullshit update…. Camera not optimized…. Nothing change after Ota….
New Alife P1 Pro is even slower than my 4 years old Galaxy S3

Skip to 2:00 to see the slowness.
All other phone sent to reviewer most probably having higher spec (MT6735) compared to the one sold to consumer (MT6735M).
It also overheats very much.
This happens before and after the OTA update.
