Meizu Tab tablet review
Meizu Tab - instructions for the preparation of the first pancake
Once the innovative Chinese company Meizu today plunged into the darkness of self-repeating. Monotonous technical characteristics of the production, inefficient on the background of competitors flagship devices provide the company a good chance to repeat the fate of THL, Jiayu and other once-popular brands that today are between life and death. But the manufacturer is not willing to put up with such sad capabilities and decides to try his hand in the tablet category. Especially because the next opponent in the face of Xiaomi hasn't serious achievements there.

LeEco Cool 1S smartphone review
LeEco Cool S1 - commitment to excellence
Combining efforts Chinese Coolpad and LeEco companies definitely pleased a significant part of the audience of the smartphone market. Though they produced only one model, but it was fantastic!

AMIGOO X10 smartphone review
AMIGOO X10 - miser pays twice

The Chinese company Leagoo struggles to create a budget smartphone that can compete in its functionality almost even with some flagships.

Xiaomi Mi Mix Nano smartphone review
Xiaomi Mi Mix Nano - a nano-tech smartphone
The Chinese company Xiaomi likes to experiment. If earlier the absence of not only the side, but also the upper bezels of the display was a trump card of only the Japanese company Sharp, today the manufacturer of China decided on such an interesting step. Staying in awe of manufacturability the audience appreciated the developer solution. Even the high price and a huge 6.4-inch diagonal of the screen didn't hold the phablet from becoming a bestseller. The hero of today's review is a smaller version of the hit, that is even offered with a little reduced cost. Is there even a single flaw in the novelty?
Oukitel U20 Plus smartphone review
Oukitel U20 Plus - cameraphones to everyone!

Xiaomi Meri smartphone review
Xiaomi Meri - when you were not born yesterday
Developers of smartphones are often dependent on suppliers action. Unfortunately, this fact leads to negative consequences.

ZUK Edge smartphonew review
ZUK Edge - out of limits
The subbrand of well-known Chinese company Lenovo does not differ by a great range of products. However, each company's smartphone turns out almost the best offer in the market for its price. Excellent Z2 line is relevant today, but the corporation should look in the future. Nowadays pressure from Xiaomi Mi5S, Oneplus 3T and other novelties is unusually high, and what will happen next? Probably, we will see if not the win of the hero of today's review, but the worthy competition
VKworld Stone V3 Plus smartphone review

The hero of today's review is a gustatory variation of a phablet of a current company's line. However, maybe such a novelty will be enough to get a good profit?

Not everyone can afford himself to buy the top smartphone for nearly a thousand of dollars. However, everybody wants to have a beautiful, functional and autonomous gadget.

Doogee Y6C - harmony in every detail
The Chinese company Doogee rapidly increases the range between value and quality of its products.

Xiaomi Redmi 4A smartphone review
Xiaomi Redmi 4A - a perfection for the poor
The Chinese company Xiaomi distinguishes itself by its smartphones in all price ranges, with the exception of the most budget. The segment, which is a gold mine for dozens of companies, was not covered by the corporation. Understanding the possible loss of a good income forever, the developer decided to create a phone that combines advantages of "older brothers" and excellent functionality, despite the low cost.
Xiaomi Mi Mix smartphone review
Xiaomi Mi Mix - out of style frames
The idea of a frameless design of a smartphone, though is not original, but is relevant to the market audience, and was not yet realized. Perhaps, the Japanese Sharp Corner R was the closest to this aim. However, the Chinese company Xiaomi decided to show itself. The hero of this review is the flagship phablet of the company, demonstrating not only its current state, but also a future potential.
OnePlus 3T smartphone review
OnePlus 3T - invisible improvements
The Chinese company OnePlus is known for producing flagship smartphones, providing similar assembly quality and technical parameters as the A-brands, but having a modest price. Unfortunately, the last criterion is beginning to lose its relevance, because Xiaomi, ZUK, LeEco and other companies presented leaders of lines even with a lower value.

The hero of today's review is a kind of work on the bugs, the purpose of which is a very quick recovery of leading position in the segment of the developer.

Nomu S30 smartphone review
Nomu S30 - almost successful pursuit for the ideal
The Chinese company Nomu specializing on the development of secure smartphones, was created only recently, however, due to solid expenses for advertising campaign it will be well-known soon even by a preschooler. S10 and S20 models came out quite good, but the producer decided not limite himself only by the low and middle price segments. The hero of today's review in terms of its value is close to flagships of the beginning of 2016 year, but whether it can compete with them?
Blackview BV7000 smartphone review
Blackview BV7000 - a high-tech protection
IP68-smartphones have their own advantages and disadvantages in comparison with their "ordinary brothers." Resistance to dust, water and falls, unfortunately, is combined in them with not the most thoughtful design, compact dimensions and advanced technological features. The Chinese company Blackview has partly corrected the situation by BV6000 and BV6000s models, but time does not stand still. Market standards have changed, and so has come the turn of the hero of this review to prove that the protected phone can be perfect.
Nomu S20 smartphone review
Nomu S20 - more beautiful, more expensive and simple
A more expensive model in the line of a smartphone manufacturer in most cases has not only an improved design, but also better technical specifications. Thus, the buyer clearly understands for what he is overpaying. The Chinese company Nomu has decided to outwit everyone. Including itself.
LeEco Le S3 smartphone review
LeEco Le S3 - total fear of changes
The Chinese company LeEco in shortest time was able to gain popularity all around the world, including the CIS countries. Pleasant appearance of smartphones, affordable price for a great functional played a significant role in the success of the company, even if some of its decisions were controversial (for example, the absence of a separate headphone connector). Unfortunately, the corporation began to succumb to the general trend towards the producing similar models to fake increase of the range. The hero of this review is the first of the galaxy of clones.
