Elephone U & Elephone U Pro: Large Batteries in Thin Bodies?


Elephone U Pro

We previously talked about what differentiates the Elephone U and Elephone U Pro, with one of those differences being the material used for the frame of the phone. Today, Elephone released some more info regarding this detail; let’s hear them out.

Elephone U Pro

In the image above we can admire the Elephone U Pro or at least the render of it. We know it’s the Pro version because the company just stated that the more expensive and premium variant is coming with a polished aluminum frame which – according to Elephone – will “shine like a diamond”.

Meanwhile the plain Ulefone U will be featuring a cheaper aluminum alloy with a “frosted” finish on top, making it look less shiny and thus less premium.

Albeit they’re only renders, we can also enjoy the smartphones apparent thinness. Elephone did indeed also ventilate that both devices will pack relatively big batteries in rather slim bodies, which is always a win-win.

Elephone U Pro

According to previous rumors we know that the Elephone U will be featuring a MediaTek Helio P23 CPU, meanwhile the Elephone U Pro is set to boast Qualcomm Snapdragon 660. Both phones will feature curved AMOLED displays and features such as NFC, wireless charging and more.

    What is battery sizes? From searching online battery sizes are 3600mah but this can’t be right? As I would hardly consider 3600mah ‘big’

    What about the pricing details and the exact bench mark of U Pro. I believe the SD660 can reach 1,00,000 for sure. But please reveal the pricing soon.

    I am still waiting for the reviews.. want to see how the camera actually works, the bokeh effect and night mode. I want to know more about the camera software interface and algorithm.

    Is the camera going to be “Sony” like the S8? The lens that can’t focus and takes shitty videos?

    May be changing the name from S9 to U Pro will help the focusing.
