UMIDIGIG9 5G Mobile Phones, Android 14 Smartphone, 12(6+6) GB +128GB/1TB, 6.75" HD+ 90Hz Display Phones, 50MP Camera, Sim Free Unlocked Mobile Phones, 5000mAh, Dual SIM/FaceID/Fingerprint/GPS, Black

We've had Umidigi phones in the past (for our young son) and they are superb for the small layout. They work just as well as flagships. The UMIDIGI G9 camera is excellent, covering all our needs for photos and video in superb resolution. YouTube is exceptional on this phone. The speakers are also good, not that tinny and blast out a decent sound at a controlled volume. The phone feels great in the hand, not too big or heavy, and looks superb (we got the black version). Setting up was a breeze, as it should be. No problems and connected to wifi, bluetooth and other services seamlessly. It comes with Android 14 which is great and helps everything flow on this device. The scope to add numerous apps is also there due to the large storage space you get. All in all, this phone can easily be your daily driver and no one would know you'd paid 90% less than for a top-end flagship phone. Top marks, Umidigi, yet again.

Well....the phone is easy to set up and use. But the screen is let down badly - mostly due to its lack of vibrancy and the need to have the brightness up to 80-90 percent to operate even in an indoor setting - a sunny day a rarity in the UK .... Forget it. ? !Also the rubber "Condom" cover is about as useful as a Ash Tray on a Motorbike ! ! ,as it covers the volume button not very tactile to say the least But having said all that the camera is rather good day or night. Tones and colour reproduction are good without editing. It is all very well to produce millions of phone's apart from the GUI , the screen is a vital part of the phone.... You get what you pay for.😟

I've had a couple of Umidigi phones before. They've always been well made, low priced phones with great battery life.This one doesn't disappoint.Fast performance from a decent processor and 6GB of RAM plus 128GB of built in storage.There's 2 SIM Card slots, one of which I believe you can use for expanded storage with an SD card.Battery life is great - 5000mAh ensuring it will easily last the day, even with heavy use.The big 6.75inch screen has a plastic screen protector factory fitted, adding protection to a bright and clear display.There's also a case, power cord and charger all included which is great.There's a few little bits of bloatwear/features that I've switched off (a call summary with adverts after every call, and a slightly racist face attribute detect) but these are easy to manage.The camera is good and simple to use, with a range of settings and features you can dive into if you want more in-depth photography.Overall, it's a great budget phone.

Very good value for our needs. Does what it says on the tin and not as expensive as buying from mobile networks

I like this phone with its generous 6.75" sized screen. It is still nice and light and it fits well in the hand or pocket. The 5G capability gives this device good future proofing in the fast moving moder world. The phone has 128 GB of user memory which means that most of us can use the dual SIM capability of this phone to allow private and work number calls on the same device.The 5000 mAh battery gives me a good two days of usage between charges, which is really handy.Like most modern phones ths one has pretty good cameras, the main cameras being an X1, X2 and X3 zoom 50 MP camera and there is an 8 MP selfie camera and well as a macro camera for close work.WiFi works well and always connects wherever I am so browsing, Messaging, calls etc work reallys smoothly. The Big screen makes this device a really good e-reader and it comes with a C type output fast charger plug and aC ro C lead. Setup was really simple when migrating from my previous device and took only minutes for all my data and settings. Apps then installed themselves over the next few hours while I was asleep.

I know what you’re thinking, the price looks good right? And there is even an extra voucher option for some more money off, but let me tell you something. Don’t do it. I’ve had this phone for a few days and I can tell you it’s not very good. There is only one speaker at the bottom, the screen is not very bright and is slightly washed out, it has no nfc, fast charging is 15w only, and the default launcher is not very good. I have watched the Umidigi YouTube videos and it talks about how it is faster than the Samsung A14 in Antutu benchmarks, but really this phone is not that fast. As an Android phone it is pretty average, and the only good thing going for it is that it comes with a screen protector preinstalled and a translucent phone case, and that’s it. Also, being a Chinese phone, you have no idea how long it would be supported for.A much better value phone for nearly the same amount of money is the Motorola Moto G54 5G. The screen is much brighter, and I mean much brighter. The audio is also stereo and very clear thanks to the Dolby Atmos support, it has nfc support and fast charging is 20w so it can go from 15% to 80% in an hour. This has 8GB of physical RAM compared to the 6GB of the Umidigi, and 256GB internal storage vs the 128GB. No other budget phone provides 256GB of internal storage. Get the Motorola, it is just better
