Great budget phone. WILL NOT WORK FOR CRICKET!

So far the phone works well with the internet applications I use. The video looks great on screen. Battery life was good. The apps were very responsive. WARNING: This phone does not work for cricket. I put my SIM card in and they blocked my account immediately. I had to call support to reactivate it. Tested and compatible with Metro PCS. Save the phone and switch operators. I will update my review once I can use the phone's features.

Don't waste your time!

I specifically called and asked if this phone would be compatible with Sprint and T-Mobile as the companies merge. I was so excited about the phone because it's big and takes amazing photos! I put my SIM card in and called Sprint. Incompatible. I then messaged the seller to see if they could unlock it. So far there is no answer. Revain Info says: FULLY UNLOCKED! I am extremely disappointed. It takes weeks to get a refund from Revain and I bought 2. one for my mother Very disappointed ☹️

Great phone in this price range

We bought this phone to use as a daily phone and to take the occasional photo. I have to say that for the price we are very satisfied so far. The color of the phone is excellent and quite unique. It's a big phone with good color reproduction and contrast. It's a bit heavy but looks like a solid device. Bluetooth is great and stock Android 11 is a wonderful thing (no frills). We had some fun with the built-in thermometer but didn't get a chance to test it for accuracy. In general, this is a…

Amazing features that flagships don't have.

Everything is great here, a great all-rounder that I can highly recommend! That being said I really hate the lack of an app drawer, like okay turn it off but at least give me a setting to get it back. The device is durable, bright and comfortable to hold. It comes with a screen protector (my Note 20 ultra from Samsung, which costs 1200 more, doesn't), it has a headphone jack (which my Note also lacked). It has features I'd only want in a flagship and in terms of apps I only have one 'bloated'…

Shady Privacy Policy

When you turn on your phone, you will see Umidigi's privacy policy and a consent form (which you must agree to continue setting up your phone). Their privacy policy states that they require full access to your contacts, messages, phone number and location data for third party marketing and advertising purposes. What's also bad is that their "policy" doesn't even mention Umidigi's name, they use another company for their privacy policy and another for the consent form. Your consent form also…

Good versatile phone! With clinical thermometer?

The umidigi A9 is a battery champion phone with good performance for the price. I've had a great time with it so far, it lasts me a day and a half or so depending on usage. No-frills stock Android is great and I hope more companies make it an option. The phone works well and does everything I need so far and the biggest one is Pokemon GO. That it can be handled without problems. Reception and range are excellent, which was an issue when buying a Global Phone, but there were no problems with…

Good features but processor could have been better

This is a very attractive phone with some nice extras not usually found on budget devices. As usual with Umidigi phones, you get a screen protector and a transparent case in the box. Also in the box is a charger and cable. This means that you don't "need" to make any additional purchases in order to start making calls safely from day one. I ordered a green phone but the phone looks more blue than green. If you really want a definitely green phone you might be better off looking elsewhere, but I

Good quality budget phone

This phone is a budget phone - it is very cheap and has no obvious problems. Don't expect this to be a flagship phone and you won't be disappointed. I have bought many Umidigi products in the past and some models and devices have major problems but this does not seem to be the case. Phone. The general build quality is very good. The back is made of plastic, but it is high-quality plastic and its texture and shape make the phone comfortable to hold. The texture on the plastic is really very…

  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
