Oukitel officials expect that U16 Max could make an appearance in exclusive Aliexpress presale event in March as a part of the Aliexpress Anniversary celebration. It should be available with some pretty hefty discount and probably some extra bonuses on top

Oukitel U16 Max. There are not many details leaked now. As of now we know, the new Oukitel U16 Max is going to have a 6.0-inch display Android 7.0 Nougat OS and an Octa-core processor.
[Device Reviews and Information] jan177:
It’s not going to be a dual camera device so we have to settle for 13 Mpix rear camera with Micron AR1335 sensor and 5 Mpix front camera with OV GC5005 sensor. No software interpolation for either of them so a small plus for that. It’s worth noting that the camera lens doesn’t have the plain black paint, but micron-grade double axis lines printed using the latest LightScribe technology.

The fingerprint scanner will be on the back of the device and will have some customizable options including audio or video playback control, taking calls or launching a specified app directly.
[Device Reviews and Information] jan177:
The rear camera on the Oukitel U16 Max will be 13MP and is listed as a Micron AR1335. The front-facing camera is a 5MP sensor in the OV CG5005 which is also a “straight” shooter with no interpolation. The company also mentioned LightScribe tech on the rear lens as well. While we knew it would have a fingerprint scanner that detail has been confirmed along with an aluminium metal shell with CNC milling.

Oukitel U16 Max Specifications

6-inch JDI display HD 1280 x 720

MediaTek MT6753 processor

13MP rear camera

5MP front-facing camera

[Device Reviews and Information] jan177:
We still don’t know when the Oukitel U16 Max will arrive, but expect it to be affordable like many of the company’s other handsets. It will début in Gold although more colors could be added before prime time.

As OUKITEL announced the full specs during MWC which was held last week, they are now releasing more details about the U16 Max. Here we have got the first hands on video for this 6 inches smartphone.

[YOUTUBE]vSPbFmvIh5c[/YOUTUBE]

As we already knew, the OUKITEL U16 Max features a big screen with 6 inch 720p display which is 2.5D curved and processed with LTPS tech. While the battery cover applies aircraft aluminum alloy. The middle frame is also metal with complicated CNC craft to make it slimmer as well as comfortable to touch.

This video shows some features of Android Nougat (7.0) as well as customized features for more a interesting user experience.

Since the screen is big, the one hand mode and one hand float view will be appreciated as it offers some daily functions like screenshot, scanner, lock screen, screen record, gesture unlock and recent apps etc. It also offers dual desktop for choose, one with app drawer, one with all apps on main screen.

It also offers several kinds of unlock way, like fingerprint with password, fingerprint with pin, fingerprint with patterns, etc. The fingerprint is quite fast to unlock device, it also add other functions like use fingerprint to capture photo, to answer phone call, to play music etc. The Camera should be a 13MP made by Micron (AR1337 i guess) with no interpolation.​
[Device Reviews and Information] Alberto96:
OUKITEL U16 Max gets the final product video

As we already know, the U16 Max features a 6 inch HD JDI display with 2.5D curved screen and 3D arc designed battery cover. This is offering high permeability and bright vibrant screen. However, how long could such a big displayed smartphone last for daily usage?

The U16 Max carries the MediaTek MT6753 Octa-core chipset with 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM, and runs the Android 7.0 OS. Considering the hardware and software power consumption, will the 4000mAh battery provide enough power? The answer is YES.

Using SCUD battery with high density tech. this leads to a super thin 9.15mm body compared to other large battery smartphones. Theoretically, the 4000mAh battery of U16 Max is able to support:

All the above data are theoretical; may differ according to local network and mobile phone state.

[YOUTUBE]mWiHoSEucSM[/YOUTUBE]

This U16 Max will start the Global First Launch from March 28th, and it is said to have the lowest price available between all devices featuring similar specs. OUKITEL will also start delivery at the same time when the first launch starts. More information will be launched on OUKITEL's official FB page.​

Benchmarks

I have used 3DMark, AndroBench, Antutu Benchmark, Epic Citadel, GeekBench 4, GFXBench, PCMark (Work 2.0, Computer Vision, Storage & Work 1.0) and Vellamo to stress the device to the limit. I won’t test Games or Video Playback because there are already some related tests included in these Benchmark suites.

3DMark – GPU Performance isn't superb, neither you can expect better results with this GPU.

AndroBench – eMMC Performance is sufficient, Write Speed lower than average.

Antutu Benchmark – I won’t say a lot about this benchmark, this isn’t as reliable as others. I’m providing this just for benchmarks lovers.

Epic Citadel – As you can see, 3D performance is mediocre.

GeekBench – CPU Performance is nearly as good as other CPUs with the same configuration (8x Cortex-A53), enough to handle almost every type of activity.

CPU

Compute

GFXBench – The same GPU lack of power is noticeable here.

PCMark – Standard MT6753 performance here.

Work 2.0

Computer Vision

Storage

Work 1.0

Vellamo – Impressive Android Webview Performance, but everything else is just like other MT6753 devices.

Conclusions

Being the first phablet from OUKITEL it seems that they are on the right way to produce a real competitor that can beat other devices in the same price range. The device isn't perfect, the lack of power is noticeable but at least OUKITEL managed to provide a clean, and smooth, Android 7.0 Nougat experience.

So, do I recommend it? Well, it depends on your requirements. If you are in search of a gaming device, this isn't for you, but if you are in search of a multimedia device, with ultra-light gaming, then this might be a good choice.

Pros:

Good Build Quality

Impressive Fingerprint Sensor

Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box

RGB Notification LED

Huge Battery Capacity

Cons:

Low Screen Resolution for a 6 inches device

Speaker Quality could have been better

No Magnetometer/Gyroscope Support

Still running on the outdated MT6753

Just got this phone delivered yesterday and I'm currently in the setup stage. Initial impression is that it's a monster of a phone for it's price (bought it from Aliexpress for just over 103€).

One thing I noticed:

I know that it's sometimes just a number that they set in the specs but I can confirm that my 128gb Samsung Evo is recognized and seems to be working in this phone even though the specs say up to 32gb.

Pre-sale ends on the 29th of April at Gearbest/Igogo. Tomtop states it will ship the U16 Max after the 20th.

You probably wont have your device until May. A piece of good advice: Always check when the pre-sale period ends that's the best indicator of when a device ships.

Dont know how true true this is, but....
[Device Reviews and Information] gosa:
Those are interesting news indeed!

On another note...

- I know the phone is quite new on the market, but have anyone managed to find a protective case (wallet style) for this phone that is not of the "sticker on the back side to be glued onto your phone" kind? I want the same kind of case, but with a plastic (hard) protective "bumper" where I can snap-in the phone.

I bought a case on Aliexpress and - for not reading the full description - got rewarded with a piece of leather with cut out holes for camera/fingerprint reader and a adhesive strip for attaching the phone to the back. - Did not want that...

Also tried to find the bumper-thing separately but that one doesn't seem to be that easy to find either. Right now I'm waling around with the soft bumper that came with the phone, but I don't see that lasting very long.
[Device Reviews and Information] butchieboy:
I dont know about all of you but im not getting the great battery life that this beast is supposed to have. I know screen on time varies but im barely getting 3hrs. Heck on my Note5 Note4 S6edge plus i average over 4hrs. I know that having a rom optimizes things. Can anyone tell me if the bootloader is unlocked.
[Device Reviews and Information] gosa:
Regarding battery life I haven't really kept that much of an eye on it but so far today I have 2h5min SOT with 73% left. I'll keep any eye on it and report back when I've checked a couple of days...
[Device Reviews and Information] butchieboy:
Thanks bro.
[Device Reviews and Information] reefmonger:
It may take a few cycles to fully charge. I wouldn't let it get below 30% before recharging
[Device Reviews and Information] gosa:
Got 5h30 minutes of SOT out of my phone yesterday before I passed below 20% and the battery saver kicked in. As I still had some "moving about" left during the evening I plugged it in to top up a bit before continuing, but I'm sure I could've gotten past 6h if I'd be willing to.
[Device Reviews and Information] butchieboy:
Gosa I just read through the tutorial for TWRP...man it seems tough. Im so used to just flashing recovery with Odin on Samsung devices. Seems some have gotten recovery bootloop and having problems getting root to stick. Its still early in the game so hopefully things will work out.
[Device Reviews and Information] gosa:
The weird thing is that the screenshot you first linked to is actually from a rooted phone running v 7.0, and the problems people seem to have in that forum is because the twrp posted is made and tested for v 6.0 but "fails" on v 7.0. That means that there should be a working twrp for our phones as well.

Does anybody know how to change lock screen wallpaper? I have tried but the wallpaper I use only applies to app pages. I hate the lock screen wallpaper....lol

so with the update the camera (colors, noise) has definitely not improved?

any changelog anywhere?
[Device Reviews and Information] gosa:
Me I'm getting the sensation that it's not really the camera that is bad (it's not good, but not that bad either). I'm feeling more like it's the screen that produces weird colors - kind of oversaturated - when you look at the photos in the phone, because the same photo looks much better when viewed in computer.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Neuromancer:
I'm thinking of buying OnePlus, and I'm curious whether I should stick to Oxygen or move to Lineage/CM

Basically, would I miss any significant feature from CM/Lineage (tweaking UI isn't important to me anymore, I guess I've outgrown this :) ) . E.g. does XPrivacy work on Oxygen?

Also, what is the largest hosts file that this phone can handle? Is 500kB OK (the MVPS hosts file)?

I'm using Xposed and XPrivacy fine on stock OOS 3.5.3. I understand Xposed doesn't work on any Android Nougat distros or versions yet and hope is dimming for it.
