Great value good value phone

I don't usually write a review after only two days but this G91 Pro is actually pretty darn good, with lots of features for a phone with an original price of C - a mark and a half. I missed this deal by a couple of hours but bought my purchase for just two C notes - and I'm still more than happy with the value. By the way, there are plenty of videos on Youtube about opening the box and the first review. My old phone that I am comparing the G91 Pro to is the BLU Pure XL which was the king of value back in 2015 when I bought it. But now with Android 5.1 OS, it's almost ancient history. So the G91 Pro has 6 GB RAM and 128 GB ROM, a bright HD+ screen (2400 x 1080 resolution), which is a bit dark in bright sunshine. but still visible in the shadows. Works on Android 11. The user manual isn't great, but Android 11 is pretty intuitive and has built-in hints. Setup is very easy. Volume buttons and power button on the right side. The button on the left will appear to bring up the Goggle wizard. The USB-C port sits on the bottom, along with a standard headphone jack and speaker. There's only one external speaker, but hey, nobody around you wants to hear your music or your contact - use headphones. Yes, wired headphones have a regular jack on the bottom of the phone. Or use Bluetooth headphones if you have any. Also connects to most vehicles via Bluetooth. I don't know yet, will my car's audio system play music from my phone via bluetooth - the phone probably can, but my car's audio probably won't, although the car will play music from the phone via the AUX port. Installed FM radio app requires a wired headset with earphones acting as an antenna. If you have a SeriusXM account, I think you can also install their app and listen to SeriusXM radio at no extra cost, but that's done over the internet. The huge battery in this phone is 5000mA. It's been about 30 hours since I got the phone and the battery is only down to 70%. The old Pure XL would have been dead yesterday. Also included is a 30W wall charger with fast charging and a powerful USB-C connector for fast charging. And the phone is also compatible with any Qi-certified 10W wireless charger (wireless charger not included). I'm not sure I really need to buy a Qi wireless charger with such a long-lasting battery. 128GB internal storage, you can install another 128GB SD card and still have dual SIM ports. Yes, these are three separate ports. The old Pure XL also had three ports, which was a rarity at the time. It comes with a very good music app with really good sound (at least the way I like it). You really need headphones to hear good stereo sound, although the speaker is both loud and clear, mono only. The Antitude score is pretty good considering the price of the phone - 350,000. Enough for most games. I'm not a gamer so that doesn't matter to me, although it probably does matter to most buyers. The camera is pretty good too considering the price of the phone - way more than I need, but maybe not if you're a professional photographer. I don't, so I'll leave it to the other reviewers. Overall a damn good value considering all the features and the low price. EDIT 1: (September 24, 2021) Having now lived with this phone for a few weeks, thought I'd update my rating: Camera: Excellent. Really crisp, clear photos from the front or back. I really didn't expect the camera to be that good. Notification LED: none - something I didn't notice at first and, to be honest, didn't miss either. When I'm moving, I keep my phone in my pocket, not in my hand, so I wouldn't see him if he were there. They have a notification sound, which to me is probably better than a notification light. Battery: Battery life obviously depends a lot on how much you use your phone and what apps are running on it. For my use, I've found that turning the phone off completely while sleeping adds up to a week of battery life. It's just fantastic battery life. Security: The phone has fingerprint, face recognition, pattern, PIN and password. Face ID works best for me, fingerprint recognition isn't that great, but it's probably my fault for not giving it the best fingerprint. The pattern works too, as does the pin. as the notification light. Battery: Battery life obviously depends a lot on how often you use your phone and what applications are running on it.
