Oukitel K7000 gets a price tag and first pictures


Oukitel is planning to release bunch of devices together very soon and we have already mentioned something about each of the planned ones – Oukitels K7000 and U13 phone models or A58 smartwatch.

In today’s article our focus turns once again to the Oukitel K7000 and its little cheat with the promised 7000 mAh battery capacity. The phone itself will be carrying only a 2000 mAh battery and the rest is achieved by external Matrix charger/case/powerbank. Many people myself included felt a bit disappointed with the result of the hype 7000 mAh phone campaign, but realistically we couldn’t expect anything else.

On the other hand the Matrix can serve as variety of things including a phone stand, powerbank for some other device altogether and of course even the protective function can be handy. With the phone being ultra thin (still quite sceptical about the 4mm number thrown around) it can be actual quite alright having it inside the Matrix case most of the time.

And most interesting is the news tidbit about the planned price tag, because allegedly the Oukitel K7000 should cost $109.99, which sounds pretty fine. Check out the first pictures of the model too, because even with the unorthodox solution the projected price can lure quite some customers.

    It’s a new way of making a big battery phone… Lol. But when they release it, we’ll know.

    Not a bad idea.

    The idea itself is not the worse ever, but it really needs to be refined… It isn’t even new, we’ve seen battery-covers like that for years from third parties, but as I recall that’s the first time a company works directly on it… Maybe a future phone will have something more interesting than this… Or maybe we’ll be able to see removable batteries again, so we can double the capacity in a minute or less (I know it won’t happen, let me just dream ?)

    I actually think this is a great idea for a budget device.
    You can use the 2000mAh(which will be enough for a full day)and take the bank on trips and when you want to do some work on it.
    One thing i`m disappointed is that it packs the MT6737 where for me the 6750 should be the standard for phones between 100-150$.
    Will get the K7000 for a review though.

    So, as I’ve spoken before K700 become an ultrathin 5-inch battery indicator for Matrix. With MT6737 on board for fast sending to instagram battery state, of cource.

    i am very curious that why there has no people complain the small 2000mah battery of this model.

    • July 12, 2016

      Because it has 2000 mAh battery + 5000 Matrix Powerbank

    LOL. It was impossible for such a small phone, to have this huge battery… Anyway, I hate big, fat and ugly phones. That’s what you get with a big battery (like Oukitel K10000).

    I wish there was more smaller (<= 5") and stylish smartphones, that are fast, good quality and the battery could give you a full day of heavy use (charge it at night when you sleep). This would be great.

    The K7000 looks like 5" and I think the 2000 mAh battery is not good, so I just pass this phone.
