Today they have published a battery test (4000 mAh):

UMi TOUCH has a 4000mAh big battery for a full worry-free day

UMi TOUCH turned out a real surprise and it easily ended up being one of the strongest recommendations we’ve made this season.

The affordable fella is made of metal, packs a 5.5INCH 1080p LTPS display, and runs on the Octa-core 3GB RAM. But the biggest highlight of its specs sheet is the beefy 4000 mAh battery.

The UMi TOUCH has been enhanced with the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow core. This version of the launcher promises significant battery life optimization.

The life test video was done by 5hours heavy using mode and 10 hours standby mode, from 97% to 42% left.

What I have done during this 5 hours?

30mins web browsing - 4% usage

30mins online video playback - 5% usage, it’s a okay number

1 hour music playback - 8% usage, it’s reasonable

1hour gaming - 10% usage, not bad!

30mins book reading - 4%, also quite reasonable

1 hour wechating (Chinese what’s up) - 3%, that’s alright, nothing special

30 mins taking pictures & video recording - 10%, if you are photo shot lover, take a look at this number to see if it’s enough for you.

30mins talk time and so on - spent about 8%, this could be better though.

Additionally, we did another 10 hours standby, I was sleeping when testing, which is about 3% usage.

So we are happy to say UMi TOUCH could easily live up to two days use!

Everybody love to have a big battery smartphone, however, we don’t want to carry a “power bank” like phone all the time.

UMi TOUCH has been thoughtfully designed to keep the slim body as well as a 4000mAh big battery.

You no longer need to choose between big battery or beautiful design body. In this case, you can have both with UMi TOUCH!

just updated.. better camera focus speed, and now camera resolution is 13Mpixel.. not as in the past the 21Mpixel interpolated size.

I will test in the next days!
[Device Reviews and Information] cosjudah:
Can.t just install a third party camera apk? For example SNAP IT from HTC i think.. Might be a better idea. Or some ported camera apps from other phones? I wonder, camera problems on this model are caused by only the stock camera app or by the camera sensor itself...
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
tested Google Camera 3.1 for MM , same behavior of the stock one.

third part camera in many cases works better in terms of sharpness or fine tuning, not on focus speed or overall quality.

by the way, now camera is much better than befoe..

i'm fighting with TWRP and touch screen still not worning on TWRP..

The new OTA come also with a new Boot Logo.. with UMI and a fingerprint style background:)
[Device Reviews and Information] cosjudah:
I understand. I am waiting for my UMI Touch, it must arrive by the end of this month, i am excited to see its capabilities :D

Also hoping that umi release all promised roms, including WP10 maybe, why not? And also more OTA updates, expecially for the camera app wich it.s really bad, in my oppinion. Anyways at this price, what to expect ... :)

I saw your post that you are trying to port TWRP to UMI Touch, that would be awesome as well, to bad i.m not skilled in Linux and Android to help you. Can you tell me a little bit about overall phone built quality ? And also i read somewere that the fingerprint scanner is very bad, a rate of 1 of 3 attempts to unlock by fingerprint scanner. How about vattery life? Too many questions, i apolagize, but i.m really curious. Excuse my english and keep up with the good work!
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
Good build quality and materials.

a little bit heavy 202g .. but battery is a real 4000mAh..

Fingerprint in the last OTA of 4th April is not as good as expected.. too many fail even if you store same finger many times (you can store up to 5 fingers, but you may use same finger in different angle for 5 times to improve accuracy).

Battery life seems to be good..

https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/263426

expected about 6 hours SOT using sim data, gps and bluetooth.

Last ota of 9th April promise improved battery lie too... (i have to check)
[Device Reviews and Information] cosjudah:
Ok, thank you for your opinion. Not a bad battery life. I am considering to buy a Meizu M3 Note at the same price, but better specs, the only problem will be that it comes with lollipop, not marshmallow.
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
At the beginning is not possible that you find Meizu M3 note at 150$/140€ ... are you sure about it.?
[Device Reviews and Information] cosjudah:
Yeah, you.re right, now it.s about 200€ on presale, even it was advertised at 155$ the 3gb ram variant... And 125 the 2gb version
[Device Reviews and Information] Walter H.:
Yeah well.. It's Meizu after all.

Hi. They have published other article about Umi Touch. I let you it here:

UMi TOUCH, 4000mAh, front touch ID, full metal unibody: A serious contender

We noticed that UMi TOUCH has been a hot topic for a while. And today we are going to take a look at this device and see if it’s a worth of buying phone.

[YOUTUBE]LlBSwxVWY28[/YOUTUBE]

Design: Morden & Stylish metal phone

Starting from the ZERO, IRON PRO and ROME, UMi always has been on the top 1 in terms of design.

UMi TOUCH is designed as a full metal unibody with CNC cutting edge.The strength and durability of metal, in a luxurious gold or silver or dark grey, makes UMi TOUCH so irresistible.

Front fingerprint scanner: One touch unlock

The home button and fingerprint scanner of the UMi TOUCH is oval and fits with the overall design of the phone. It look just as fine as the iPhone 6S, if it’s not better. But the unlock speed is amazingly lovely which is one of my favor, because the one touch unlock without light up the screen unlike xiaomi mi5 or iPhone.

Battery: 4000mAh for two days!

One of the best feature of UMi TOUCH is the battery. Starting from 8am at 100% battery till next day 1pm in the afternoon, after many callings, testing, 3 episodes watching House of the card, it still remaining 11% battery left. The screen consuming only 16% in the whole story.

Are you thinking of the size of the phone since it has such a big battery? I tell you what, the phone is just weigh about right and the thickness is 8.5mm which is even thinner than Redmin note 3 wich is sharing the same spec of battery.

Camera: Say “Cheese” to capture any moment

UMi has made a lot of improvement on the camera side both software and hardware. It’s an exclusive model from SONY a 13PM IMX 328. I want to highlight the feature of the front flash LED light which you don’t find in any current model. It’s really useful for taking selfie in low light.Front the result it didn’t disappoint us.

System: Latest from Google the Android 6.0 Marshmallow

there ‘re many new feature brought from the Marshmallow. For example the “Turbo download” which is a feature that you can choose to download files via both wifi and mobile data to have a faster download.

Performance: High ranking comparing to the same spec from other phones

UMi TOUCH is using the MT6753 Octa-core processor with 3GB RAM. it’s certainly not the best CPU in this date since you can find Helio p10 already in the market. However, do we really need that high spec of the phone? Are you willing to pay extra to get something that has not much different in terms of user experience?

Summary: $179.99? It’s definitely a worth of buying flagship you should try.

Starting from the metal design, this is something you can’t really find in the market at this price so far. The camera with front flash led light is one of the best feature in my opinion. The fingerprint is fast and accuracy, another favor. A 2 days usage of battery makes this phone too amazing to believe it cost just $179.99.

[MENTION=5952124]megthebest[/MENTION], how about the home button? Many are saying that pushed it makes a strange noise, like an cheap plastic button. Is that true? I have to admit that even my Galaxy S3 has not the best phisical home button, and when pressed it feels way worse that an iphone one, for example.
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
No Issue about home button.. my sample is good in that point of view..

After one day, i loose backlight on the right soft touch...

BTW.. My Unboxing & Quick Review (Italian Language, Sorry for that)

[Device Reviews and Information] cosjudah:
Thanks for your answer and nice review! It seems like some units are good, others not, maybe it is a matter of luck... The backlight button it really is a major problem, do you intend to return it back to warranty? Still considering to sell it, after i recive it, at the same price i brought it and putting more 50€ for Meizu M3 Note...

Hi. They have announced today other flash deal about Umi Touch:

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

In addition it seems Umi Touch will have CM13

UMi TOUCH could be the first Mediatek phone got Marshmallow-based CM13

Following Oneplus One gets their Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow-based CM13 releases. Another Chinese smartphone maker UMi said they are going to develope this popular after-market custom OS CyanogenMod on their latest flagship all metal UMi TOUCH.

According to the company, they finally get the agreement and received the codes to work on CyanogenMod OS 13.

The UMi TOUCH is one of the first came running with Marshmallow Android 6.0. It has already received two software updates via OTA in the past two weeks since its released on March. Users are hoping to receive CM13 soon.

However, Its been more than five months since Google started rolling out its brand new Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system.

Many manufacturers like Samsung, have been extremely slow to release the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update. Because of the difficulty and difference of the sorce code. Not to mention UMi is porting a Mediatek phone to CM13 which just make it harder.

We have all the reason to believe this update might not get it anytime sooner. But if they did, UMi TOUCH going to be the first Mediatek phone got the hands on Marshmallow-based CM13.

anyone trouble with low level of sound in call?
[Device Reviews and Information] todarkness:
i am thinking of getting the umi touch. mainly because it could probably get windows 10 mobile on it.

but i have some questions:

1. some said the touch digitizer is not so good, is it true ?

2. is mediatek still so bad with drivers ?

3. would you recommend the phone ? i mainly want to use it for browsing, as a navigation device in my car and maybe some causal gaming, nothing more.

4. does the phone support the active display thing (showing notifications on screen) ?

other than that the device is really interesting, especially for its price. of course its no high end but i wouldnt mind that.

TWRP 3.0.*.- Touch Screen doesn't work --> Kernel Issue --> Smartphone Umi Touch

Thanks for your work indeed.

Your recovery seems to work in some parts of the touch, but bad touch point redirection.. seems like uncalibrated panel.. and i have also graphical problem in the upper part of the screen with your recovery.

Bottom on screen keys are working well, so the touch point in the bottom part of the screen seems to be well assigned to the right mapping space of pixels.. center and upper part NO.

Does using a 3rd party Camera app make it any better? And do You think it is better or worse the the ulefone power?
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
I'm trying now with google camera 3.2, i'll let you know.

Generally speaking, IMX 328 of Touch is better in terms of sharpness, high iso and against direct sun light (or traffic lights sources during night).

IMX241 of Ulefone Power is better in terms of focus speed and capture speed.

Umi has published this battery test in spanish forums. Do you think it is real?

UMi TOUCH Battery test: A true 4000mAh power monster

[YOUTUBE]K3h6JsDWXQ0[/YOUTUBE]

UMi TOUCH packed with a 4000mAh internal big battery, from the spec it says 15 days standby time.

Here we took one out for test to see what is the real capacity inside the UMi TOUCH.

Battery number: SHT-436588PL

Size: 4.5mm

Label capacity: 3800~4000mAh

Input: 4.35V

Test procedure:

Charge battery: Charging in 0.2c constant current till 4.2v, then set to constant voltage, current should be smaller than 0.1c, cut off the current immediately after fulling charge.

Let it sit for 5 mins

Release battery: release battery in 0.2c constant current till it finish

Let it sit for another 5 mins

24 hours Circulate testing from step 1 - step 4

Analyzing Results

First test result doesn’t count in the report, the second and third run test result show the difference capacity based on different temperature.

After 24 hours testing result:

Battery release test result Graph 1 : Different color represent different temperature, result shows battery capacity at almost 4400mAh when fully charged, and 3200mAh when battery is 100% released.

Here is what it looks like when Graph 1 zoom in, look at line 25°(in pink) and -10°, from 99% - 100% released, battery capacity would be test as it’s between 3200mAh - 3300mAh. Look at line 0° (in green) , battery would be test as 3400mAh more or less and at 50°(in purple), battery would be 3600mAh more or less.

Conclusion

Normally we will only see the result tested at 25 degree as it’s the regular temperature.

According to the result, the first thing we learn from this test is that battery’s actual capacity would be changed based on different temperature and the current capacity when testing, as well as tester machine and electronic current.

The second thing we learn is that, after 24 hours charging and releasing, we see that UMi TOUCH’s battery could reach up to 4400mAh and as low as 3200mAh.

During the testing mostly it shows 3800 - 4000mAh.

So the number stated at UMi TOUCH battery is reasonable.​
