I gave up on presell products after buying UMI Super and the touchscreen got ruined of their own Update, up to now they haven’t produced any fix yet so i’m sitting with a brick of ghost touches. Will wait for months of review to buy this one.
I’ve purchased at least 5 presale products. The only one I regretted was the Umi Hammer. Umi = shit. They are yet to prove that equation wrong.
I’ve had the Umi Iron for quite some time now and i’m very happy with it! Rootjoy was also a very cool project to accompany it. I also like that it comes with an almost vanilla version of android. But just as Ronnie I don’t go for presales because first batch problems are a common thing with a lot of Chinese phone productions, i also prefer a proper review of the product before i buy it.
lol … tell me if someone u know has tried umi max
What about the max? TCL’s influence guaranteed the device was useful. If 1 out of every 5 to 7 device is good does that make a company worth petronizing?
also had ghost touches. but was because I used it in the rain. drying it fixed it
Lol months by then more options will be available, weeks sound a bit better
It’s not the presell products… UMi is a shitty company, every phone she makes has problems. Elephone does the same thing.
