IUNI U3 officially launched with 2K display, dual sim LTE, ultra pixel for just $320!






IUNI have once again shook the Chinese smartphone world with the release of their latest smartphone! The IUNI U3 has launched for 1999 Yuan in China with 2K QHD display!

IUNI kicked off their year with the launch of their first ever phone, the IUNI U2, which was released at around the same time as the Oppo Find 7. Less than a year on and they already have the successor to the U2 ready to launch and here it is!
The IUNI U3 had already been teased on the official IUNI SNS services. The details told of a 2K display and had us guessing as to which processor the phone will be running.
The phone has now been officially unveiled in Beijing today with all the details released about the Snarpdragon 801 powered phone. Official specs include a 5.5-inch Sharp display with a pixel density of 538ppi and Corning Gorilla Glass for protection. Keeping the 5.5-inch panel manageable has meant reducing the bezels to a minimum, so the IUNI U3 measures in at just 74.9mm.

IUNI have moved away from the all metal body of the U2 for a durable plastic body, which they say will resist dirt and look better for longer. The chassis remains metal though, and is in fact a magnesium alloy to keep weight down.
The IUNI U3 continues to use a Qualcomm processor, this time a 2.3Ghz Snapdragon 801 which also boasts 4G LTE. There is 3GB RAM, 32GB memory on board and even room for external memory.
Interestingly IUNI have given the IUNI U3 dual SIM LTE standby, a large 3000mAh battery and a 4 mega-pixel ultra-pixel front camera. The rear camera is a 13 mega-pixel sensor with F2.0 aperture and OIS optical image stabilisation!
The IUNI ROM is now running on Android 4.4 Kitkat and according to our sources will receive English this time around. The IUNI U3 will be available in black, white and green from next month in China for only 1999 Yuan!

c'est bien ?

Gionee n' a pas l'air mal

Quand je suis passé dans les campagnes chinoises fin 2013, ils étaient dans toutes les boutiques (Gionee). Après pour dire si c'est une bonne marque ou pas, j'en sais rien.

Hands on with the IUNI U3 – Amazing hardware, quality and price!

I have just come from the IUNI offices here in Shenzhen where I managed to spends some time with the fantastic IUNI U3 smartphone. Keep reading for my hands on impressions.

In a competitive phone market, such as it is here in China, it is very important that a phone stand out from the competition, even more so when a company is brand new. IUNI are now just 12 months young and after launching their first flagship early this year, the alloy bodied U2, the company have an all new phone poised to go on sale.

The IUNI U3 was officially announced at the end of August and won’t be available for same until later this month, but that hasn’t stopped us from getting an early hands on with the all new flagship smartphone.

Available in white, black and signature green, the IUNI U3 is a phone that feels 3 times its asking price. The earlier hands on photos we had seen from the launch do not do the handset justice, and in the flesh it is a stunningly crafted device.

Tech specs are as good as anything on the market today, well in fact the hardware in the IUNI U3 is about as cutting edge as you can get. Impressive considering the company is so young and the fact the U3 will sell for just 1999 Yuan here in China ($325).

Continuing their partnership with Qualcomm, the IUNI U3 has a powerful Snapdragon 801 processor that purrs along at a stonking 2.5Ghz with aid from a full 3GB RAM and a powerful Adreno 330 GPU. All that power is needed to ensure the 2k display, with an incredible 538ppi, can keep up with your gaming antics!
A 3000mAh battery keeps the screen and power going and can be accessed, but not removed, by removing the rear panel. Taking the rear panel off does allow you to insert both your SIMS (yes this is a Snapdragon 801 dual sim phone) and there is space for one LTE and one GSM card under here.

Speaking of the screen, it is a 5.5 inch panel with resolution of 2560 x 1440 from Sharp. Thin bells help keep the width down while a slightly curved taper to the edge of the glass allows your fingers to smoothly slide from edge to edge.
To say I am impressed with the look, feel and build quality of the IUNI U3 is a bit of an understatement. This phone is easily on par with Oppo and Vivo device costing almost double the retail price!

What I didn’t get to try too much during my visit to the IUNI office was the new English version of the IUNI ROM based on Android 4.4.4, and the camera, the front being especially interesting as it’s an ultra-pixel model. Thankfully a review unit of the IUNI U3 is being arranged for me as we speak and we will be able to put this amazing new phone through it’s paces.
I also managed to interview IUNI CEO Frank He today, which I will be writing up in the coming days.
