Cubot X16 coming in July 2016

Looking at the specs it’s pretty clear we are not dealing with any kind of a high-end device, but an oldschool lowend. Not anything from the ultra budget segment though, the quad-core MT6735A processor clocked at 1,3 GHz, 2 GB RAM and 16 GB of expandable storage are quite alright specs. Rest of the specs include 5-inch OGS display with 2.5D curve and HD resolution , 13 Mpix rear camera with autofocus and 8 Mpix front one with Intelligent beauty function. Battery will have 2700 mAh capacity and Android 6.0 Marshmallow is going to preinstalled. Phone will be available with hybrid dual SIM slot so either two SIMs or SIM + microSD card.

Cubot X16 dimensions are 143,5 x 69,4 x 7 mm and the price haven’t been revealed yet. But with such specs its surely in the sub-$100 range for sure. From the pictures lying around you can see that design-wise the Cubot X16 does pretty well too, but still it would need something more to stand out better in the sea of similar phones.

Cubot revealing new models: Z100, S500 and S550

Cubot spent much of MWC announcing their smartphone in collaboration with app maker Cheetah, saving a couple more phone launches for after the huge expo.

Cubot didn’t show all their cards at MWC, keeping three new phones a secret for after the event. The two devices are the Cubot Z100 and Cubot S500 smartphones.

The Z100 is the model aimed at budget phone shoppers. Parameters for the phone include 1GB RAM, quad-core MT6735P chipset, LTE, 5-inch HD display and 8 mega-pixel rear camera (capable of shooting at 13 mega-pixels).

The Cubot S500 gets a slight upgrade with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal memory, 13 mega-pixel F2.0 rear camera, measuring at 7mm thick with a 5-inch display. The S550 is slightly larger with a 5.5-inch OGS panel and larger 3000mAh battery (compared to the S500’s 2700mAh battery). Pricing for the S500 will start at $129.99, it’s not clear at this time if the S550 will have the same pricing.

All three phones have dual sim support, room for a micro SD card, and run Android 5.1 Lollipop from the box.
