Ulefone Note 8P – An ultra-low-cost smartphone with Android Go Edition. It’s the price that you can buy without hesitation, but how to use it is a concern?

Ulefone Note 8P, a super low-cost smartphone from Chinese manufacturer Ulefone, can be found on Banggood’s product page as of May 20th, with a reference price of $69.99, and with Android Go, the specs are pretty standard, but it’s like buying an earphone or something.

The OS is the Go Edition of Android 10. This product’s predecessor “Ulefone Note 7P” has slightly higher specs than the “7P”, which is equipped with regular Android 9, and the “7” was the “Go Edition” of Android 9, but so far only the “8P” is available and there is no model number of the “8”.

The CPU is MT6737 of MTK. It’s an entry-level CPU from a few years ago, and I’ve reviewed products with this CPU several times in WinTabs. The Ulefone Note 8P is a Go Edition machine, so I think it will work fine for everyday use. However, I think there are restrictions on the application that can be introduced, so that point needs to be noted.

The RAM is 2GB and the storage is 16GB. Because I think that I will use only very light application around the Google application that “Go” is basically attached, this may be enough. No, I’ll take care of it.

The display is 5.5 inches with a water drop notch, and while it doesn’t look bad, the resolution is low at 960 x 442. I’m sure the system load will be small, but the screen may be a bit rough.

The interesting thing is the SIM and microSD card reader. This product can use two SIMs and a microSD at the same time. However, the supported SIMs are the Standard SIM and MicroSIM. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a standard SIM smartphone. Or rather, I don’t remember. Well, I think there is no problem if you use clogs (adapter). Also, because the built-in storage is 16GB, microSD card is where you want to prepare.

The camera is also working hard. The dual cameras are 5MP on the in side and 8MP+2MP on the out side. It’s a cheap smartphone, so if you can take a photo that’s reasonably beautiful, you can say, “Okay, you did a great job! I feel like I want to say, “I’m going to do this.

The size is relatively compact in terms of length and width. However, it’s 12 mm thick, and I’m a little afraid of the unknown weight. I don’t think it’s enough to worry about that much…

The front has a water drop type notch. The water droplets are a bit large, and the bezels seem to remain, but I think it’s enough for a smartphone of this price. Also, I think the back is the type where the whole thing pops open, just like previous Windows 10 phones (Windows Phone). As far as the images go, it’s glossy and feels beautiful, but don’t expect much in the way of texture.

It doesn’t have a fingerprint sensor, but it does support facial recognition. Accuracy is a concern though. The enclosure is available in green, orange and black. I think it’s pretty colorful and energetic. Why don’t you go for an orange?

The Ulefone Note 8P has a product page on the Chinese mail order site Banggood, and as of May 20, it has not yet started selling under the status of “In Stock Alert”. The reference price is $69.99. Once sales start, I think it could go down to about $60 with sales and coupons.
