UMIDIGI thoughts?

[AC Question]

Looking at a new phone always been a fan of pure android had Nexus devices and recently Moto phones. So what next if I've only got a couple of hundred quid. I'm intrigued by the UMIDIGI spec sheets, particularly the UMIDIGI Plus E. Has anyone got any experience or thoughts? Can't see any reviews on the AC site.

I bought the Umidigi Z1. The pro version has an AMOLED screen but that is the only difference between the 2 phones. It has 4000 maH battery and 6 GB of RAM. It has an Octacore processor and runs Nougat 7.0 out of the box. So far I have had 3 updates which have improved the cameras. The cameras are not the best but definitely not the worst either. It has stock Android with little tweaking and is just so fast. I have an iPhone 6s and this phone leaves that standing. The screen is bright and responsive and the FPS is super fast. It kind of looks like an iPhone 6+ and is 5.5" screen. The battery lasts all day on a charge with heavy use. I think my phone was £239 well spent.
