I completely forgot to mention it but others have pointed it out – this does NOT have VoLTE. Which is a bummer

Be good people!
Very cool box.
The radio song that you heard with the dancing banana is Rasputin from Boney M – It was a massive hit in the late 70's – early 80's – But you're probably too young to remember that era 😉 Nice review, i love watching your videos 🙂 Here is a video of the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rk7ITikbhs4
Looks close to the amazon alexa logo.
if only it was like android 7 or 8, it'd be way better
android 7 would allow termux to work, so you could use it as sorta tiny server for messing around with stuff
android 8 or higher, would allow flashing GSI roms (if you manage to unlock bootloader 'n such of course)
you should probably flip the timestamps and descriptions in the description, so that youtube can auto-make chapters on desktop!
6:15 many asian books especially in Japan are read back to front
Reminds me of a redmi 3 .
I didn't expect this phone to actually have a good heat dissipation, especially for the price.
That's a good phone for that price, ok cpu and stock android.
lol this looks kinda like my redmi note 4 cuz of the earpiece and camera layout
Having a Snapdragon chipset, let alone 600-series on a no-name brand smartphone is still an achievement. Cheaper phones like this are usually powered by crappy MTK chipsets (prior to Dimensity & G series) & outdated Android OS. This phone, during its release (2015 or 2016?), was on-par with HTC One A9, ZTE Axon 7 Mini & of course, Mi 4i (during Hugo Barra's Xiaomi era). Granted that Mi 4i used the overclocked version of SD 615 but still, it was a mid-range chipset & international market got this instead of the more powerful SD 801 China-exclusive Mi 4.
Such a surprise as 'Rasputin' came up from the radio.
The cat finally has a name!!!
Yes please buy the 3rd colour of the DJ-1000
40:56 You should have shown how many million mAh it has, or if it will show the correct number
This seller seems like a pretty stand-up guy.
Smoorez, how can I make a suggestion directly to you for new content? I swear it's not "constructive criticism". I think it would be an interesting addition and could hold up to the iWish series. How can I DM you? I don't have Instagram.
interesting
Only of welcome phones had a good camera
is a LG G4/G5 second hand a better option than this new?
Pretty decent phone for the money 👍
Looks like from those 2016-2018 old vivo v5 or oppo F1S design.
"I miss aero effects" I don't have to miss them at all because I'm watching this on a Vista machine! I don't give up what I love for the sake of updating!
If there was a channel specifically for cute Ripley videos, I'd happily subscribe.
The song you Heard w on radio was a disco song from the 80's call " Raspoutine"
Made by simcom midel number:a318
Looks like the Redmi Note 5A, maybe this this company is the ODM for xiaomi? Judging by manufacture date and overall design and display being incredibly similar
i think it's not running a custom rom, but it's definitely running a qcom flavor of AOSP. came with trebuchet launcher and some of phones running this software also came with cyanogenmod profile switcher (i previously had a phone called andromax and i can tell it right away that software feels almost the same)
and there's cyanogenmod/lineage file manager too.
Hold down on the torch icon in the notification bar, some phones let you change the torch brightness and usually start on 2/5.
first time i hear you excited about the iwish device.
Really impressed by this device i have to say
For the money i might even buy one and mess around with it 😂
it definitely $hits on any and every welcome phone to date that's for sure.
Honestly this phone would be perfect as a music player since it has an analog headphone jack. If it had an expandable SD card slot, you could do so much more with it.
