Elephone S8 - Comments

Advantages: Wonderful display. Well above it's price range. Almost stock Android 7.1.1. No bloatware, except the strange browser that can't be uninstalled. No problems with Google play store, etc, as was the case not that long ago on PRC build phones. Quite good battery life. Has the dimensions of a 5.5" phone with 6" screen. Solid build. Comes with a screen protector and case out of the box. All in all, it's a great phone for 200eur. Has everything 50,100 eur more expensive phones have AND that beautiful quad HD display. Watching videos on it is great.

Limitations: No 3.5mm jack. That is a horrible decision by Elephone. Makes charging and using headphones impossible. There are cables, that have both the charger and 3.5mm jack, but it's far from ideal. The sound on those is distorted by the charging and the charging is slower. The camera s/w is HORRIBLE. The picture quality is nice. But the autofocus is insanely slow, and it always wants to use the flash, no matter what. There were a few updates from Elephone already, but the camera is still horrible. It's a shame, as it has potential to be a nice camera. It can even output in RAW for some reason. If Elephone puts out a s/w update that makes the camera usable, this will be a truly great phone.

Conclusions: No Feedback Score

Conclusions: They are swindlers, they take your money, they send you something but it's a lie, they do not send anything. Then if you claim and ask for your money back after almost two months, try to convince you to wait, and so time goes by and they with your money in your pocket. Be careful with them!

Conclusions: not recommand this seller.

Advantages: Beautiful, wonderful, excellent in everything, with absurd quality of video and photos. There is nothing better on the web for the price, I recommend your purchase. Excellente cost-benefit ratio. I still bought in the pre-sale with many doubts about the smartphone Elephone S8. I just trusted the brand. But, after receiving it, I can only say that I am very happy with my purchase. A great purchase. I had requested to change the color of the smartphone after my purchase, the staff of Gearbest met me very well, thank you to the helpful staff of GB.
