While the phone itself might have been taken its sweet time to launch, OTA’s for the UMi Touch have been rolling out in good time.
This is the 2nd OTA of the all metal UMi Touch released for the phone since its delayed launch earlier this year. UMi say that they have been listening to user feedback and that this second update addresses some of the issues people had with Google.

OTA UMITOUCH.V.3.03_20160400, also have battery optimizations to boost usage, there are also updates to the rear 13 mega-pixel Sony IMX328 rear camera to improve speed, and remove nice from low light images.
If you don’t already have a notification on your Touch for the OTA head in to the settings > about phone > wireless updates > check for updates, as this OTA sounds worthwhile.

The good news, Chinese mobile phone manufacturers began to focus on software, ulefone, Umi is a good representative.

The only review I have seen is in Italian and is extremely positive. The review is supposed to be humorous. Hope he is right because I pre-ordered one some time ago.

My Tomtop pre-ordered Umi Touch got dispatched on the weekend, so I’m patiently waiting to try it out, so far I’ve seen a YouTube video showing bad video recording but I believe Umi have recognized that as a software fault and have fixed it in a fw update… Otherwise, from what I’ve seen around YouTube, it looks like a pretty solid phone for the money especially!
I received my Umi Touch, the camera getting better and better after I updated the two FTOA, Umi told me they will improve the performance continuously.
