Elephone Soldier Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Elephone Soldier - the bad luck soldier?

News about the Chinese corporation Elephone began to appear less and less often in feeds. A number of not the most commercially successful smartphones negatively affected the popularity of the brand. However, the company does not lose hope for a happy future and decides to make its fans happy with the new protected flagship. Unfortunately, his chances of success are difficult to call huge.

The exterior of the new item is attractive, but it does not meet modern standards of style. The lack of a screen with sides ratio at 18: 9 and a double matrix is complemented not by the most compact size of the device due to IP68 protection and a battery with a capacity at 5000mAh. The latter fact had a very positive impact on autonomy, bringing its level to 10 or more hours of active gadget operating time. The abundance of high-qualitative metal, the original design of the photocamera, the presence of a mini-compass a bit improve the impression feom the appearance. But from the 5.5-inches OGS-screen with a huge resolution at 2560 x 1440 pixels, the buyer will only be delighted. Brightness, contrast, detailing of the picture - everything is on top height.

For performance sre responsible the 10-core Mediatek HelioX25 CPU combined not with the most impressive 4GB of RAM and the MaliT880MP4 Plus videochip. For high graphics settings in demanding games a bunch is still enough, but the power margin is minimal. 64/128 GB of memory are allocated for data storage, there is also a slot for microSD cards. Therefore, problems with a lack of memory will not be observed.

The rear 21 megapixel Sony IMX220 sensor has managed to get pretty old, although still able to make you enjoy high-quality photos even with mediocre lighting. The 16-megapixel frontal photomodule is much easier in its capabilities, but it are enough for excellent selfie. Fast charging function, Android Oreo, LTE and OTG are contributed to the list of advantages of the gadget, but the immodest price, not the best appearance and no longer actual "hardware" will not make the device really popular.
