Fresh new teaser demoes the elegant Elephone S7

Yash GargSeptember 29, 2016

While I’m rather critical of the usual Elephone practise of launching phones one after the other, I have to admit they do seem to be improving with each phone, and the upcoming Elephone S7 does look elegant too.

The company have now put together a quick video (of just 43 seconds) giving a glimpse at the phone. Seen in the video alongside the elegant Elephone S7 are some elegant hands, presumably of a Chinese woman (no offence if it turns out to be a lad).

Have a look at the video right below.

The S7 will be Elephone’s answer to the growing population of MediaTek Helio X20 phones, including but not limited to the Vernee Apollo Lite.

Other specs of this phone include a 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080p ‘bezel-less’ display with 2.5D glass on top, and a whole of three configuration (RAM/ROM) sets — right from the base 2GB/16GB, to the mid-range 3GB/32GB and top-of-the-line 4GB/64GB.

There’s no word on the final pricing as yet, but the company claims it’s going to be ‘competitive’. More info about the phone can be found on the Elephone website.

Let’s see if this one will ever hit the market.
The p9000 Edge was announced in January and it’s been 9 months and still nothing.

Here it is visible they have received this on 21st September then why they are doing late?? I am interested in this curved screened device. The design is quite similar to Samsung but it seems thinner and glossy than that. I personally licked this one.

Wow that curved edges are looking soooo good. but this video could be longer. :/
From this video all could be visible was : It supports fm radio, has cloud service, wireless update, Android marshmallow but nothing else. Release a video with some special features of this model. And please the release date otherwise I’m losing my interest from this everyday post.

Good specs for High Range version.. I hope that it will be available in October and will have Android 7 on board! It will be definitely a great succes lite P9000 and P9000 Lite in the recent history!

Yeah looks really nice in hands. Hopefully it will available sooner at least within this month. Both their S7 an R9 have created so much of buzz in technological blogs, hope fully S7 will meet out expectations 🙂

There are still a lot of damn paid posters here, don’t they have an honest job to earn descent money but help Elephoney to cheat people ?

  I think “they” are the same person. If you check, Chandan/Rocky/Massimo always comment at the same time ^^

  Is so nice of them to be here – otherwise we would be missing you and the other ELE haters words of wisdom on all the ELE threads.

    Them as in the real readers?? haha. Open your eyes, you only see the same bunch of paid commenter on every ele threads complimenting ele with attached pics and over the top compliments. Serious, who does that? Real readers wouldn’t be bothered to post pics of the product, yet alone look for one to post. and I’ll give you an example of a paid commenter below. The readers just want their tech blog back and clean from obviously paid rats who obviously have had a sad life and resorting to these kind of methods of deceiving other readers to get extra cash. Their parents would be proud of them.

We are talking about a Chinese phone, so anyway we know that quality can’t be excellent.
That said, it has hardware features highly respected and if the selling price will be around 150 EUR, I think it will be a success!

This model seems to me very well done and in addition the fact that the release with ROM/RAM different cuts, so as to decide to customer what to take and how much to spend, it seems a good idea!!

I am quite surprised by how well this model looks like, when they announced it, i was skeptical nut after these teasers it really makes me think if i should get S7 or not. Another great thing is that they allow the customer to choose what they want, i think somewhere before, that they are going to release two different versions of S7 varying in screen size and other specs. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/898b820a5106c64f93759bfdc776215853370bedf64b4ef78d83ab2a83cd839f.jpg

When i first saw their weird S7 back covers, i was already impressed and now they have shown the phone in hands. No one could deny it looks beautiful and as somebody in the comments mentioned, there are several versions with different specifications, which is also a huge plus when choosing a phone you will be using daily 🙂

isn’t it funny how massive the phone looks in her hands? ? all jokes aside, it really looks beautiful and i can’t wait for the release. hopefully it comes out soon, it looks like lots of people like this phone and i believe they will definitely have a large demand for the S7 model once it’s out

It really looks like a beautiful device, it looks snappy, probably because it is equipped with nice guts and has a premium look overall. I think the company did an amazing job on designing and engineering this, so they have definitely come up with this nice model!

that’s great, 2.5D glass is strong as gorilla glass 4, l need protection, and look there is a date, let’s hope the package is greater than the smartphone… package is best part of unboxing ❤❤
