UMiDIGI Bison 2021 Overview
UMiDIGI Bison 2021 - easy upgrade
How to extend the life of a once popular smartphone? Each of the manufacturers has their own answers to this question. Someone simply transfers the phone to a lower price category, someone prepares a full-fledged continuation of the hit. The Chinese company Umidigi decided to simply slightly tighten the technical characteristics of its successful device and update the software. Will the audience of the market have enough of such changes?
The appearance of the novelty was left without the slightest metamorphosis. Someone will definitely like the colors of the bodies or the design of the four cameras, but it is hard not to notice the large dimensions of the device and the wide bezels of the screen. Of course, such shortcomings are partly due to the protection against dust and moisture according to IP68 standards, but ergonomics does not get any better from this. But the 6.3-inchOGS-screen is still not to be found fault with. Individual pixels at FullHD + resolution cannot be seen, in terms of brightness and contrast everything is also good.
The Mediatek HelioP60 processor and the Mali G72MP3 video accelerator now work in cooperation with 8GB ofRAM . Such an increase in RAM did not affect performance at all and will be noticeable only for those who like to minimize dozens of tasks in the tray. The installed chipset is still relevant for the mid-value segment, although a number of opponents have more powerful solutions. So, the interface of the updated Android11 is deprived of critical lags, not particularly resource-intensive applications start almost instantly. But with games, the situation is not so rosy. Projects like Genshin Impact or Fortnite lack smooth gameplay even with a minimum of graphical presets. But the volume of internal storage has been increased to 128GB with a microSD card slot.
The main cameras are topped by a 48-megapixel Sony IMX586 sensor, which was installed in flagships a couple of years ago. The quality of the optics in the gadget is unimpressive, and the software of the photomodules is mediocre. Thus, if photos and videos in daylight do not raise any questions due to the careful transfer of colors and the preservation of many details, then in the evening and even more so at night, the noise takes over all the possible beauty of the pictures. The battery capacity is 5000mAh , so you won't have to think about buying a power bank or constantly looking for an outlet. NFC contactless payments are also available, which has a positive effect on the overall functionality. As a result, we have before us not the worst representative of the IP68 segment, which actually completely duplicates its predecessor. At a lower price point, you should take a closer look at the previously released Android smartphone.
