OUKITEL C5 Pro [only BLACK] £52.51 @ Gearbest [UK Warehouse]

A lot of phone for the money but question marks over the quality of the brand. Battery is only 2000mAh so you may struggle to get a day's use out of it.

Battery is only 2000mAh so you may struggle to get a day's use out of it.

Clearly not great for havy use but should get you thru the day if used in moderation.

Shame about the battery. Even as a spare you want more than 2000mAh....

Tentative heat given

Oukitel are well known for loading phones with malware and hiding it in system apps. After I/we got stung by a brand I thought I trusted (Doogee, in this case) and having given the phone to my mum found random ads popping up, I scanned it and found infections in the Settings app and SystemUI. I’ve accepted that the low cost is subsidised by ad revenue, or even worse, personal data harvesting. She said she didn’t mind as she had nothing to hide but I don’t think that’s the point.

The same phone is here £69.99 with reviews and pictures amazon.co.uk/OUK…JV7

Link for oukitel please,

Sorry should have been more specific they are vapor data. You will be able to add UK-3 items but will not be able to order or pay for them. They are not official items and being used as place holders only.

Anyone know of any cheap alternatives for an elderly father's first smartphone? Doesn't need to be highly specced, but a semi-decent battery and large clear screen would be a winner! Going to be used for quick snaps, whatsapp and phone calls, nothing else.

I see. You can add to basket, but it's not there when you go to checkout.

How long does it take for UK delivery? While I've no problems buying from China, my son's phone packed in so he needs one ASAP.
