Meiigoo Mate 10 smartphone review
Meiigoo Mate 10 - a piece of plagiarism
One of the company's success indicators is the abundance of copies of its most popular products on the market. For several years the Chinese corporation Huawei also was copied by its compatriots.

Oukitel U18 smartphone review
Oukitel U18 - the appearance can lie
The Chinese company Oukitel carefully examines the audience's needs, but in some cases such research is a bit harmful for the manufacturer.

Kingzone A5i smartphone review
Kingzone A5i - a stranger from the past

UMiDIGI Ironman smartphone review
UMiDIGI Ironman - an unsuccessful experiment?
The popularity of action cameras is decreasing every day.

Allcall Mix 2 - unhurried conquest of the market

Huawei Honor 9 Lite smartphone review
Huawei Honor 9 Lite - simplistic beauty
Creating a more accessible version of the flagship device is always a challenge. The manufacturer must preserve not only the best features of the original, but also make the gadget that has its own "face" and relevance of technical characteristics.

Meizu M7 smartphone review
Meizu M7 - affordable manufacturability
The popularity of the Chinese corporation Meizu increases every year, but this fact does not mean the success of the company in all price segments.

Uhans i8 Pro smartphone review
Uhans i8 Pro - a powerful additive!

Lenovo K320t smartphone review
Lenovo K320t - a continuous compromise
Timid attempts of the Chinese company Lenovo to regain its former positions in the low and middle price ranges of the smartphone market cause double feelings. On the one hand, we want to see something as interesting as the A830, S650, S850 models, which pleased with their excellent appearance and impeccable balance of technical characteristics. On the other hand, the backlog of competitors over the past few years has become immense. Unfortunately, the hero of today's review is unlikely to be a phone, about the purchase of which millions of people are dreaming.
Oppo R13 smartphone review
Oppo R13 - who do I look like?
The Chinese company Oppo is one of the leaders in smartphone sales in China. The quality and functionality of the company's products, backed up by a magnificent design, atoned for its inflated price. However, the masters also sometimes have, if not failures, then strangeness. The hero of today's review can be attributed to the latter.
