Entry-level made in China. The Chinese manufacturer UMi launches an affordable smartphone model dubbed Touch on the market that presents almost "too good" technical specs for this price range. Find out whether there is a catch in our report.

Generally a great review, but there a couple of problems I and a lot of other users have had with the UNI touch, and a couple of errors in the review.
1. My phone is definitely 4G in both sims slots. This (and a lot of chinese phones) use one sim slot for the cd card so if you want to increase the 16Gb capacit with an SD card its no longer a dual sim phone.
2. All those other advertised operating systems are as far as we know vapourware. There is nothing available and we can't even root the phone yet.
3. The fingerprint scanner on my phone is completely useless and just does not work. I can register fingerprints fine so the sensor works but it has never ever been able to unlock the phone. I even registered the same finger 5 times and it still didn't work. Other users on the UMI Touch forum report the same problem.
3. The biggest issue for me is the GPS is useless. This is a show stopper because if I can't use my phone for navigation then its useless. Lots of other users report the same problem as me - the gps fix wanders all over the place making navigation with google maps impossible. UMI deny there is a problem.
Bluboo Maya are getting prepare to bang out the chinese market :)
with $69.99 pre-sale price the device will be came out with 2 GB of super RAM into the markets Get Ready for it!
The MI Touch is a piece of junk. Dont buy it. I say this after my own purchase and 2month trial and observing similar experoences of others wasting their money on a Touch.
The first thing that makes the device unusable is the 'Touch'screen ( ironic eh !) The lower section of the screen does`nt register letters typed from a keyborad. Extremely frustrating and off putting.
Next, all Touch`s I`ve seen have the return button placed askew in its housing. It not only looks cheap, its diconcerting...and amazing that the factory QA would let it pass. Apparently, the Touch`s successor the Super, has the power button placed askew.
The bezel is not consistent and has a wider margin left compared to right.
The Touch, like UMI Super, does`nt have NFC.
No use reporting the failures to UMI. Their agent JoJo simply fails to comprehend the complaint and refers you to the reseller. Very poor service where evidently, the failure is with design, manufacture and quality assurance.
Dont buy a UMI Touch.
So far do good for me yeah the fingerprint doesn't always work but sometime I think it's me. Great performance for the price I don't know y ppl are whingin.
The phone is good, but I will choose vkworld T1 Plus instead, the big display impress me a lot.
