OUKITEL WP39 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

OUKITEL WP39 - the optimal smartphone without any special features

The Chinese company Oukitel has decided to please its fans with several secure phones in various price categories. Unfortunately, it is impossible to call each of the new products a potential hit. The hero of today's review is close to this status, but he definitely lacks individuality and competitive advantages.

The appearance of the device is not bad, but it is far from ideal. The problem lies in both the dimensions of the gadget and the thickness of the display frames, and the outdated form factor of the 32-megapixel selfie camera. The original design of the rear panel, a stylish camera unit and a side fingerprint scanner come to the rescue, but they cannot make the exterior truly beautiful. The IPS screen has a diagonal of more than 6.5 inches and an excellent resolution of 2408x1080 pixels. There is no need to complain about the clarity of the displayed content; color rendition does not raise any questions. But the brightness reserve of 500 nits is mediocre and simply insufficient for working with the phablet in direct sunlight.

The selection of technical characteristics is more successful. It is difficult to criticize the presence of a MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor with support for 5G networks, 6GB of RAM and a Mali G57-MC2 video adapter in a mid-price segment gadget. More than 400 thousand points in the AnTuTu benchmark emphasize the performance sufficient for Android 14 to function, as well as the successful launch of modern games. You shouldn’t hope for flagship results, but even the famously resource-intensive Genshin Impact is not annoying with an abundance of lags, albeit with low graphic presets. You can store applications and other information on 256GB of ROM, as well as MicroSD cards. Autonomy plays an important role in choosing a mobile assistant. The device is fine with it thanks to the huge 11000mAh battery; you need to look for sockets no more than once every 3-4 days. But the charging power of 18W looks clearly small for such a battery. The treasured 100% capacity can only be seen after 5-6 hours. The unit cannot be charged without wires; this function is reserved for more expensive representatives of the range.

The photographic capabilities of the main 64-megapixel Sony IMX682 sensor make it possible to count on excellent daytime images, not spoiled by noise or problems with color reproduction. In most cases, even moving objects are clear and detailed. Evening shots are less interesting due to the lack of optical stabilization. The auxiliary 8-megapixel (night vision lens) and 2-megapixel (macro camera) photo modules are unlikely to cause a lot of positive emotions due to their modest quality. There is no stereo sound; the only speaker does not allow you to enjoy your favorite music due to the low volume and unbalanced frequency response. To listen to music, it is recommended to use wireless headphones. NFC contactless payments have not been forgotten by the manufacturer, which is good news. However, the controversial IPS display, inexpressive appearance and a number of other disadvantages will not turn the device into a bestseller.
