Oukitel U7 Plus: hands on video shows the “magic” fingerprint sensor in action

The Oukitel U7 Plus — which is an improved version of the Oukitel U7 Pro — was launched a few months back. The smartphone has a similar look to the iPhone 6 Plus but with one key difference, the “magic” fingerprint sensor which adds a few more functions to the smartphone.

The fingerprint sensor’s “magic” functions

As showed in the video above, with the fingerprint sensor you can:

1. Tap it to snap photos;
2. Tap it to answer calls;
3. Swipe it to browse through photos in your gallery;
4. Tap it to play and pause music;
5. Tap it to play and pause video playing;

Pretty much all the basic functions you might want it to do, it does.

But Oukitel wanted to add some more shortcuts for taking photos, other than tapping the shutter button, you can also draw a “V” on the screen to snap a picture, give voice commands, use the volume down key and as mentioned above, tapping the fingerprint sensor will get it done as well. You really can’t miss a moment with this phone!

Among other specs, the smartphone features a 5.5″ HD display covered in 2.5D arc glass, a MediaTek MT6737 CPU clocked @1.3GHz, 2Gb of RAM, 16Gb of internal storage (expandable). The rear camera is a 13MP shooter with an aperture of F/2.0 which should give pretty good results, if not for the amount effort they put in the camera software, while on the front we have a 5MP camera. The smartphone also sports a 2500mAh capacity battery.

The Oukitel U7 Plus will be on sale for $89.99 from authorized online retailers. More info here.
