Ulefone has announced its latest mid-range smartphone in India dubbed the Ulefone Tiger. The most remarkable thing about the Ulefone Tiger is that it offers decent modern specs and features at an affordable price; personally, I think the price is a bit low for its specs, and this is a good thing for the smartphone because it gives it a chance to compete favourably in the saturated smartphone market.
Ulefone Tiger Specifications
Display & Design
The Ulefone Tiger comes with a 5.5-inch display with a pixel resolution of 1280 * 720. The display is protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 3, a feature becoming common in mid-range smartphones.
The smartphone sports a unibody metal design, and the body is manufactured with flammable heat-isolating material to protect it from external elements.
Memory & Performance
The Ulefone Tiger is powered by a Quad-core MediaTek MT6737 processor which runs on the 64-bit processor and has a maximum clock speed of 1.3GHz. Paired with it is a Mali-T720 GPU to handle graphics operations.
It comes with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage which can be expanded up to 128GB via a microSD card slot on the smartphone.
Battery
The Ulefone Tiger packs a 4,200mAh battery which guarantees you up to two days of battery life with normal usage. The battery uses the Lithium-Polymer battery technology and is non-removable.
Connectivity
The smartphone comes with a dual-SIM slot through which it can access 4G LTE network bands. It has WiFi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 for wireless connections and possesses GPS for navigation purposes.
Camera
The rear of the Ulefone Tiger houses an 8MP camera unit which uses a Sony IMX219 sensor and is accompanied by a LED flash for visibility in low-light conditions.
The Ulefone Tiger sports a 5MP camera on the front for taking selfies, and though it doesn’t have a LED flash assisting it in the dark, it uses a Samsung S5KE2 sensor to make sure it’s able to take quality photos when it can.
Software and Hardware
Below the LED flash at the rear of the smartphone is a fingerprint sensor for biometric verification and extra security.
The Ulefone Tiger runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow right out of the box.
