Ulefone S1 Launches as a Budget Smartphone with Dual Rear Cameras

Ulefone S1 joins Ulefone’s army of smartphones released into the Android market to keep up with competing OEMs. It is a budget smartphone that appears with a very low price tag.

On this baby, you’ll find dual cameras situated at the rear, Full View 18:9 aspect ratio and the Android Go Edition. Well, the Android Go edition part was inevitable, and that’s a cool one from the Chinese brand.

Let’s find out other details about this dirt cheap smartphone.

Ulefone S1 Quick Review!

Built with plastic and metal, the Ulefone S1 doesn’t shy away from beauty. It’s edges are well curved and its rear is finely furnished to relay this pretty quality. On top of the 5.5 inches IPS screen, a 2.5D Curved glass sits comfortably to add more aesthetics. This IPS screen serves as its display, and comes with a resolution of 480 x 960 pixels. The 18:9 aspect ratio also juices up this display’s properties.

Under the glass, there’s the budget MediaTek MT6580 chipset. It packs a Quad-core CPU of 1.3GHz speed and Mali-400 GPU. The chipset’s performance is anchored by the 1GB RAM which is very efficient thanks to the Android Oreo Go Edition. This is so because this OS brings along Go apps that take up a little amount of space making multitasking free flowing.

In the camera department, 5MP + 5MP shooters excel in the rear region. They have a LED flash support for brightening images in poor lighting areas. At the selfie zone, a 2MP camera with 5MP interpolation is found.

No fingerprint sensor is found on this phone, therefore, you can make use of the conventional security methods such as PINs, passwords and patterns. A 3,000mAh battery is found under the shell of this device as its duration determinant.
