Oukitel U7 Pro specs out; it’s still fairly entry-level


Oukitel’s U7 is known as a very affordable phone. The device is well under $100, and at one point in time, it sold for a mere $49.99.

The factory has since given it a makeover along with a ‘Pro’ in the model name so it reads ‘Oukitel U7 Pro’. Specifications are fairly similar to the original Oukitel U7, and the phone is still very low-end.

The U7 Pro gets the MediaTek MT6580 quad-core SoC, a switch from the MT6582 of the original U7. Besides, there’s still only 1GB RAM and a 8GB on-board storage, confirming that the U7 Pro might be Pro but still a fairly entry-level phone.

The display is 5.5-inches with an HD resolution of 1280 x 720, which is a neat touch for a $70 phone. An 8 mega-pixel rear camera and a 2 mega-pixel front camera also make an appearance on the Oukitel U7 Pro.

Lastly, Android 5.1 Lollipop is what takes charge of all that’s mentioned here in tandem with a 2500mAh battery. As mentioned, the phone is $70 which doesn’t sound like a bad price to pay for anything as smartphone as the U7 Pro. Or is it? Let us know in the comments section!

          Actually you had it right. Gingerbread was released December 2010, Eclair was October 2009.

    Hey Yash…

    Can you suggest me a CDMA phone equal to the capability of Meizu M2 mini that was released a few days back in India…

    Performance and it looks great for the price my brother has bought this. unfortunately it does not support CDMA. I am looking to ditch my Blackberry 8520 CDMA version.

    Help needed
