Ulefone have confirmed that their bezel-less Future phone will have on-screen virtual keys and that a custom Cyanogen ROM will be available for it.
In recent videos showing the Ulefone Future, the phone has been seen with on-screen navigation controls, and this has lead to questions wondering if the final release version of the phone will feature physical controls or on-screen controls.
Ulefone have confirmed that virtual buttons will be used on the phone, but they the navigation bar can be hidden when not in use. The company also mentioned plans to have the navigation controls move from the left to the right making it easier to use the phone one-handed.

In addition to onscreen controls, Ulefone have also confirmed that the Ulefone Future will launch next month with Android 6.0 pre-installed, and for users who want something a little different a Cyanogen ROM will also be made available to download.
poor brand, ulefone power promising android 6 but still android 5.1 and x86 …
the battery fail all time, after 57% pass to 10% , cpu 72*C… gearbest refund warranty only 20 USD, lol. or i need pay 95 USD to replace the garbage phone.
Can you explain more about your problem with Ulefone Power bro or make a YouTube video? I was interested in this phone as well, but this kind of real world usage comments are turning me back big time.
problem with cpu and battery drain ultra fast…. check image.
problem with all ROM 5.1 and shame X86 version… last update problem with fingerprint do not work, stock rom LED crazy… some bug never solved
Hey thanks for answering me bro. I have a big battery drop on my K3 Note also, it’s going down from 30% to 20% in just like 1 minute, buy otherwise the battery keeps the charge and I can get ~4h screen on time on average. Many people are having this and it’s confirmed that it’s technically related to the battery itself. So in Ulefone Power you experience a constant fast battery drain like that, not just from 10 to 5% right? This is a serious problem, I would return the phone and open a paypal dispute, because I also know that the guys @gearbest are not so friendly when you start talking for refund, return and all other problems. Tell them that you paid for a phone with big battery that can last 3 days on normal usage, but they gave you a broken phone that’s constantly draining the battery in just a minites without doing nothing, it’s ridiculous and unacceptable. 🙁
reflash with ulefone homepage software. temperature > 70*C , i will try show video proof. about battery i make screenshot only with 10% 9 8 7 6 5%…. but the phone start 57% and jumped to 10% alone. Crap phone burning i get 7h standby mode.
You should shoot a video to prove, not image, image time can be modified. Second, you can use your phone to restore factory settings, exclusion is a program you install problem caused. And not all problems are attributed to cell phones, smartphones just a carrier, like the PC, you install and run different software, you will get a different effect, the same person with the same phone, install different software, use the results are different.Detection software are not accurate, especially the phone itself even temperature-sensing IC are not, how it is to test the temperature? Even CPU-Z to test the Octa-Core Quad-Core, but will show eight cores.
ok, i will try video record.
See if you’re still in PayPal Buyer Protection and ask for a refund showing all facts you have. Don’t give up man! You paid and they gave you a potentially defective phone.
Ulefone services talk about contact the shop where you bought the phone to apply warranty. *just it.
not have more protection after Delivere confirmed. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ab0df1f0f38e8e619fb890cf8bc7a9dae71fa1f00d8baa0db4cfccff596807e2.png
gearbest warranty option
Okay so you can just ship the phone back to China and they’re offering to give you back $164.99, it sounds good to me. But you must be in the 45 days period from the day you received it. I’m not sure about that 45 days from the date you ordered or 45 days from when you received the item. It’s not fair to be the first option.
I think this is faulty phone he is talking about . I have ulefone power and it is working perfectly fine. Check my comments on previous ulefone post here on gizchina. The battery thing I notice that standby time drain more battery then it should but nothing drastic eveything else is ok for a phone with that price. Cheers!
Thanks for the comment dude! I’ll look for the article you pointed out. Well may be the rom is not well optimised if the battery drain on standby is high. Still interesting if Ulefone will bring Android 6 to this phone as promised.
So what’s the sizable chin for..?
I hate on screen buttons only!
I mean I get it that some people actually like them but I much prefer the implantation on my OnePlus One which has both Capacitive OR On Screen Buttons and the choice is made within settings by the user…
Yes the best thing is to have a capacitive hardware buttons. You can always add a on screen buttons with Xposed or CM.
Get the old Nokia, it had only capacitive hardware buttons and no touch screen at all:). But yes, OPX solution would almost perfect, if capacitive hardware buttons would have backlight also.
Onscreen navigation? No thanks.
Very good, as every phone should have on-screen navigation controls, as this is touch phone. But sadly most chinese phones are still having static, ugly, no backlight buttons.
