What does this alliance prepare for us? Revolutionary product or just another good, but little-outstanding phone?
Xiaomi Redmi Pro Mini smartphone review
Xiaomi Redmi Pro Mini - too complicated
The Chinese company Xiaomi with incredible pace overtakes all potential competitors and provides products, that virtually are having no analogues in ratio of technical parameters, style and assembly.

Smartphone review Meizu Pro 7
Meizu Pro 7 - work on bugs?
The first half of 2016 for the company Meize was quite a twofold. Despite the good sales of Pro 6 and MX6 models in the flagship segment, the situation is overshadowed by the controversial attitude of the brand fans to its novelties. Indeed, smartphones received slightly more simplified technical characteristics in comparison with the predecessor, without changing for the price. Will the hero of today's review change the state of things or only further exacerbate the negative mood of the brand's fans?

UMI Max - Rebellion of Fablets

HomTom HT17 Pro - budgetary perfection
The subbrand of Doogee under the name HomTom since its inception has pleased new fans with stylish and balanced smartphones, so rare at the time for the low price segment.

ZOPO Hero 2 - next-generation budget
Time does not stand still. Already today, budget devices have reached the level of development of more recent flagships, and in some ways even outstrip them.

Zopo also adds its own items to this list.
Smartphone review UMi Super 2
UMi Super 2 - doubly better?
Chinese company Yumi is able to surprise users. Unfortunately, then with a bad, then a good side. The release of a beautiful externally model with stunning ergonomics can be marred by a mismatch of real characteristics and specified by the manufacturer.

Smartphone review Xiaomi Mi Note 2
Xiaomi Mi Note 2 - uneven flagship?
The Chinese company Siaomi every year produces a huge number of successful models in all existing segments, confirming its leadership position. However, the output of the Mi5 caused mixed feelings.

Smartphone review Cubot Echo
Cubot Echo - echo of music
Many people pay much attention to the sound quality of the headphone output in the smartphone. Unfortunately, really decent models in this regard can be counted on the fingers. Meizu MX3 and Pro-ruler, Xiaomi Mi Note, Lenovo X3 yes, perhaps, that's all. The Chinese company Kubot decided to try to make an inexpensive phone capable of satisfying the needs of, if not audiophiles, but at least music lovers. Did it come to her and how are things going with the other aspects?
Smartphone review NUU X4
NUU X4 - style icon
Meet on clothes, escorted by mind. The proverb really correctly describes a lot of events happening in our life. So often happens with smartphones. Appearance means a lot when choosing a mobile assistant, but still not a decisive factor. Does this company know Nuu and offers the user anything else besides the beautiful and well-designed design?
Smartphone review NUU N5L
NUU N5L a hunter or a victim?
For beginners, although lucky, but still it is difficult when entering the market abounding in quality products. The actions of a young company can be as follows: the release of expensive, innovative, innovative products with further "skimming" or the provision of a lower price for a product similar in characteristics to competitors. How did the little-known Nuu act in the case of the hero of today's review?

Unfortunately, the released 6 Pro caused mixed feelings of the fans of the corporation. Will the situation correct the situation of the hero of today's review?
Smartphone review Blackview R9
Blackview R9 - follow the leaders
Unfortunately, or fortunately, being the first company to introduce an innovative, promising product to the market, does not mean achieving success. Competitors can make an analog in a short time and, giving it some brand features or simply modifying, select your entire audience. Perhaps that's why the Chinese company Blackview created the hero of today's review, aimed at combating Xiaomi Redmi 3S and Meizu M3S and has its own interesting "chips".
Smartphone review Blackview E6
Blackview E6 - so close perfection
No matter how sad it may sound, it is absolutely impossible to create an ideal smartphone. Anyway, there is at least one detail that does not like any category of users.

The hero of today's review within its price segment has come close to that excellent set of parameters that it will be incredibly difficult to surpass to competitors. What is he ready to surprise us with?
Smartphone review Blackview E7
Blackview E7 - a standard of budget style
The Chinese company Blackview with the speed of the spacecraft develops its products, in many respects already catching up with the best brands of their country.

The hero of today's review is aimed at the most inexpensive sector, but this does not mean compromises in every detail between price and quality.
Smartphone review Oukitel U7 Plus
Oukitel U7 Plus - the birth of a new leader?
Smartphones of the Chinese company Aukitel differ, first of all, by an excellent combination of style and technical characteristics for their price.

The hero of today's review is the latest generation of inexpensive fabrics, having such an impressive functionality, as far as it can only be so for an extremely low cost.
Smartphone review AMIGOO A5000
AMIGOO A5000 - Visible improvements
The Chinese company Amigou, recently appeared in the smartphone market, is trying to gain not only popularity, but also its own "face", ceasing to be just another "basement" brand. Settled in the budget segment, the company slowly tries to move to more expensive categories. The hero of today's review is quite significantly more expensive than the previous products of the manufacturer, but is it really worth this overpayment?
Smartphone review Xiaomi Redmi Pro
Xiaomi Redmi Pro - when the numbers are superfluous
The Chinese company Siaomi sincerely fell in love to make confusion in the names of their products. A huge number of models of the "Redmix" line were supplemented by various kinds of indexes, it is very difficult to understand the "unprepared user" without a hundred grammes. Now we got the "Red Rice" with the prefix "Pro" and without the number plate. Fantasy for the creators of the original name of the novelty was not enough, how is it with the rest?
Smartphone review Coolpad SKY 3
Coolpad SKY 3 - an unearthly state employee
It's amazing how such a popular and widespread production of the company Kulpad practically does not find recognition in foreign countries. Featuring a thoughtful and beautiful style, good price and technical parameters, it can compete with Xiaomi, Meizu, ZTE, but the manufacturer still does not risk putting it on the global market. What are the reasons for this behavior?
Smartphone review Huawei Maimang 5
Huawei Maimang 5 - expensive and tasteful
Chinese companies Huawei envy a lot of market players. Stable growth in sales, a significant increase in the company's popularity outside its homeland in the last couple of years while maintaining further development prospects - is not it all great? However, with increasing brand awareness, product prices also go up. Unfortunately, in this respect the manufacturer has already begun to catch up with Samsung and Apple. The hero of today's review, by the standards of the corporation, is aimed at the middle price segment, however in reality the cost is actually equal to that of the flagships of Xiaomi and Meizu. What does this phone offer for this money?
Smartphone review Cubot Max
Cubot Max - after the fashion
Chinese company Kubot has long been pleased with its dedicated fans with good enough smartphones. It's amazing how long this B-brand keeps afloat. Almost has sunk into oblivion Jiayu, there is no news from THL, and the firm making the hero of today's review, still popular and popular. Unfortunately, this fact negatively affects the producer's policies in places, and there are quite controversial products, like Cheetah. And what about Max?
Smartphone review Asus Zenfone 3 Max
Asus Zenfone 3 Max - beautiful outside, modest inside
This year, the company Asus decided to rely entirely on the excellent style of its new line of smartphones. Indeed, it is difficult to find fault with it, but in the face of serious competition from a number of Chinese developers it is necessary to think about competent inner filling. What can the hero of today's review offer us for the price of the third generation Nauts from Xiaomi and Meizu?
Smartphone review Asus Zenfone 3 Laser
Asus Zenfone 3 Laser - Congestion Game
Launching a new line of smartphones on the market, the developer should think about how each of its particles organically fit the needs of users. Unfortunately, it is really difficult to do this when the number of models is large. History remembers cases when incorrect positioning of products in such situations led to almost the collapse of the company. For example, in 2011, Sony Ericsson significantly reduced its profit "due to" sales of the irrational and poorly thought-out Xperia-line, which subsequently led to billions of losses. Will the above be repeated with Asus?
Smartphone review UHANS A101
UHANS A101 - when marketing is original
Chinese company Johans, though managed to gain a little fame due to its stylish, interesting smartphones (remember the pleasant in all respects U100, U200), but it is clearly not enough to meet the ambitions of developers. Perhaps that's why an unusual advertisement was invented, which could attract a new audience. "Salute to NOKIA" - what exactly is meant in this manufacturer's slogan?
Smartphone review Lenovo Vibe A
Lenovo Vibe A - real budgetary
How do most budget users imagine a budget smartphone? Obsolete design, weak iron, lack of support from the manufacturer - all this characterizes the lower price segment of the market. However, such flaws are being tried and even successfully made by a lot of modern companies. However, it seems that Lenovo decided not to take up this matter, because the hero of today's review causes extremely mixed feelings.
Smartphone review Xiaomi Altun
Xiaomi Altun - mysterious state employee
The Chinese company Siaomi continues to sweep all possible rivals at the expense of not only quality, but also very attractive in terms of price products. The third generation of the Redmix line hit critics and users with both technical characteristics, and interesting design, a lot of technological "chips". What else could a company come up with for us in the hero of today's review?
Smartphone review Jiayu S4
Jiayu S4 - the revival of the phoenix?
The Chinese firm Jia, once glittering and selling hundreds of thousands of its smartphones, suddenly disappeared from the shelves of stores and did not provide identification marks for more than a year. The real reasons for this state of affairs can not be guessed, it is possible that the money simply ran out because of not the most successful S3. But the company is still hoping for a resurrection, and the hero of today's survey is a vivid confirmation of this.
Smartphone review Ulefone Metal
Ulefone Metal - an ideal budget?
Oddly enough, at the present time budget smartphones come out from manufacturers much more balanced than the flagships. Yes, they do not find a record performance or an excellent camera capable of replacing the camera, but "jambs" such as a small battery capacity, poor assembly or strong heating are often not. The hero of today's review can boast not only a balance of characteristics, but also an excellent appearance.
Smartphone review Huawei Honor V8 Max
Huawei Honor V8 Max - for the most gentle pens
Laurels Xiaomi do not give rest to many companies. Huawei also appeared on their list. The surprising success of this producer's huge phoblet made the firm think about the release of a competitor, in all the articles of the leader ahead of him. And the hero of today's review does this, however, and the price of the novelty is much higher. Do I need to overpay for such improvements?
Smartphone review Elephone S3 Lite
Elephone S3 Lite - not everything simple becomes a genius
One of the main competitive advantages of the Chinese company Elefon is the wonderful style of products and its "framelessness" itself. However, "leaving" only this feature is unlikely to succeed, given the serious competition in the market. Unfortunately, it is this kind of action that the hero of today's review is trying to do.
Smartphone review Blackview BV6000s
Blackview BV6000s - simplification not on all fronts
Models of the Chinese company Blackview with numbers BV5000 and BV6000 were able to distinguish not only the protection of the case by technology IP68, but also excellent characteristics, which is a rarity for this kind of smartphones. The latter today can be considered the flagship of the company, and it is really magnificent. However, in the budget price segment, the developer also needs sales, and the hero of today's review should repeat the success of the "big brother". Will it work for him?
Smartphone review AMIGOO R900
AMIGOO R900 - unusual offer
The Chinese company Amigou in many respects copies smartphones of more well-known brands in its production. On the one hand, this leads to a lack of original ideas, on the other hand, the introduction of an excellent style and even some technological chips of "older brothers" into the budget segment. The hero of today's review within its price range looks great, and is ready to offer a couple of interesting competitive advantages.
Smartphone review Elephone R9
Elephone R9 - the perfect combination of power and style
The Chinese company Elefon is unsweetened among dozens of strong, ambitious competitors. However, the company has found its own way, offering buyers inexpensive, but extremely beautiful "frameless" smartphones. And if you recently visited the review S7 refers to a fairly budget segment, then today's hero - to the average. How does it fit the needs of a modern audience?
Smartphone review TP-LINK Neffos Y5L
TP-LINK Neffos Y5L - small, udal, bright and cheerful
Smartphones from TP-Link are not very frequent guests of our reviews, despite the good style, excellent build quality and full compliance with price and performance. A small advertising campaign in Europe and CIS countries contributes to this. However, the company's products are really impressive, as does the current hero within their segment.
Smartphone review Oukitel U13 Pro
Oukitel U13 Pro - damn good
The Chinese company Aukitel, mostly known for long-lived smartphones, decided to release a flagship capable of wiping the nose of many competitors. However, the decision and immediate release - things are different, and the novelty is somewhat late with the introduction of the market. Can it, combining both weighty positive features, and some questionable ones, become popular, in demand today?
Smartphone review Bluboo Maya Premium
Bluboo Maya Premium is the dream of a large photographer
The convenience of the tablets is undeniable. Keeping the property fit in the pocket of jeans, such devices are great for surfing the web and watching movies, less spoil the user's vision. However, in addition to the large screen, the "near-tablet" should have other attractive features. The hero of today's review is the design and excellent cameras.
Smartphone review Asus Zenfone 3 Lite
Asus Zenfone 3 Lite - imperceptible simplification
One of the significant advantages of the company Asus is the production of a line of smartphones in which each model flawlessly fits for its segment and does not look defective "pruning" from "older brothers". The hero of today's review is considered to be the simplest phone of the third generation of the Zenfone-series, however it is extremely difficult to call it bad both in terms of design and technical characteristics.
Smartphone review TCL 560
TCL 560 - style, technology, budget
The growth of sales of TiSiEle company perfectly demonstrates the success of the measures it uses to fight its competitors. The company, from its very first steps, demonstrated the ability to make not only functional, but also really beautiful smartphones, does not change its ideals. The hero of today's review, despite the modest price, is ready to attract the buyer both appearance and "stuffing."
Smartphone review ZTE Nubia N1
ZTE Nubia N1 - better late than never
Already more than once marked by very peculiar actions to return former positions, the Chinese company ZTE still repeats its strange tactics. Attack on smartphones Note firms Meizu and Xiaomi is a hero of today's review, which, despite many advantages, has a significantly increased price. Will the best characteristics balance the increased cost?
Smartphone review Lenovo VIBE C2
Lenovo VIBE C2 - sweet mediocrity
The Chinese company Lenovo, despite the purchase of Motorola's mobile unit, is seriously losing ground. The tightened appearance of new products often does not compensate for their high cost for their technical characteristics. The hero of today's review, on the one hand, has no obvious weaknesses, on the other - and can not even shine in its budget segment.
Smartphone review ZTE Blade A610
ZTE Blade A610 - stylist-hard worker
Niche budget long-lived smartphones are thriving. Its ancestor can be considered even the ancient Lenovo P780, at one time having millions of sales. Now its representatives have become much more. The new line Xiaomi Redmi, products Oukitel, P-series from Lenovo - the competition is serious. Will the hero of today's review be able to compete with such "monsters"? What trumps are hidden in his sleeve?
Smartphone review Blackview A8 Max
Blackview A8 Max - maximum of functions, minimum of price
Relatively young smartphone market player Blackview for the past year managed to show itself exclusively on the positive side. Virtually all models released were not only beautiful, but also balanced for their segments in terms of technical characteristics and assembly level. But the firm also does not think to stand still and cease to develop. The hero of today's review is a living confirmation of this.
