Fresh information reveals that the Chinese manufacturer is going to soon debut a smartphone called VKWorld Mix 3. It is going to arrive as a successor for MIX Plus mid-range bezel-less smartphone that was unveiled in August 2017. The VKWorld Mix 3 is the same Mix 2 smartphone from the company that was supposed to launch before the end of 2017. It means that the Mix 2 will be launched in the market with a new moniker of Mix 3 and it will also carry some modified specs.

The backside of the VKWorld Mix 3 features a glass panel and it sports a metallic frame that is made out titanium.

The post VKWorld Mix 3 Launching Soon as Cheapest Full Screen Design Phone with 6 GB RAM, 128 GB Storage, 5000mAh Battery appeared first on Gizmochina.

The tri-bezel-less Vkworld S8 is now available for pre-order. The full-screen phone not only boasts an 18:9 display, but also has a titanium frame and a massive 5,500mAh battery.

The Vkworld S8 is supposed to sell for $229.99 but for the duration of the pre-order, it will sell for $169.99. The pre-order promo runs from today (31st of October) till 9th of November.

For $169.99, you get a phone with a 5.99” FHD+ screen with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 on the front and on the rear. MediaTek’s MT6750T is the chipset of choice and there is 4GB of RAM on board. You get 64GB of built-in storage with the option to add up to an additional 128GB.

The Vkworld not only has a bezel-less display, it also has dual rear cameras. One is a 16MP sensor and it is paired with a 5MP sensor. For the front camera, you have a 13MP sensor that sits at the bottom right corner of the chin. The manufacturer says most of its components are from Samsung and Sony, so these sensors should be from either one of the two manufacturers.

The S8 doesn’t end there. There is support for 18W fast charging via MediaTek’s PumpExpress, allowing you charge the 5500mAh battery in just 110 minutes.

VKWorld S8 is now available for buying in the market. There are many smartphones with full screen design in the market, but the VKWorld S8 is the only one among them that houses a mammoth battery of 5,500mAh capacity. Since the display on the full screen phones occupy major portion of the front panel, their displays can break if the build quality of the phone is not good. VKWorld is not only providing an attractive full screen design on the S8, but also it has ensured that it has a very strong chassis.

Titanium is a stronger metal than aluminum and the Chinese manufacturer has used it as a frame on the VKWorld S8. With a titanium frame onboard, the S8 phone will remain well-protected from dents. In order to protect the display of the S8, VKWorld has applied a layer of tempered Corning Gorilla Glass 4 on it

Moreover, the company has also used tempered Gorilla Glass 4 on the back panel of the smartphone. Beneath the rear glass, the company has included a metal plate that reinforces the build of the phone and provides more resistance to the glass.

The company claims that the body of VKWorld S8 is so strong that it can be used for cracking walnuts. Here is a video that shows how strong the device is:

The retail price of VKWorld S8 is $229.99, but the phone is being made available with a price tag of just $169.99 during the pre-orders. At such a low price, the VKWorld S8 features a 5.99-inch IPS display from LG that carries support for FHD+ resolution of 2160 x 1080 pixels. It is powered by MediaTek MT6750T chipset and 4 GB of RAM. It has an internal storage of 64 GB. The rear-mounted dual cameras include 16-megapixel + 5-megapixel sensors. It has a selfie camera of 13-megapixel. Other features of the phone include Android Nougat OS and AAC speaker.

The post VKWorld S8 Full Screen Design is Well Protected with Front, Rear Gorilla Glass 4 & Titanium Frame appeared first on Gizmochina.

Vkworld S8 is yet another affordable smartphone with a full-screen design which would be released at the end of this October. The phone is the latest flagship model from Vkworld and it crams a large 5500mAh battery under its hood. In case you still don’t know, the phone comes with a glass covered body at the front and rear aspects just like most flagships we have seen this year. But instead of metal, the Vkworld S8 features a frame made of titanium alloy. It is the second titanium phone from Vkworld after T2 Plus. Flagship models having a titanium frame are not too common but one good example is the Essential phone.

However, the Vkworld S8 comes with an 18:9 aspect ratio which makes it the first 18:9 phone with a titanium frame. When compared with aluminium, titanium has the advantages of being more durable, more resistance, harder and more resilient. Also, titanium is much more expensive and difficult to process. Even if you drop it to the ground, the frame will not easily get a dent. In addition, the VKworld S8 comes with a tempered glass at the back which ensures that it doesn’t get damaged when it is dropped accidentally. That would depend on the extent of the fall but the Vkworld S8 looks much more resistant and durable than normal glass phone. Vkworld has lots of phones that are hard enough to crack walnuts. So Vkworld S8 may be able to do that too.

So, let’s go over the key specs of the Vkworld S8 once again. It sports a 5.99-inch LG in-cell display with an 18:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 2160 x 1080p. It packs a mammoth 5,500mAH Samsung high-density battery which should be capable of providing an adequate usage. The device also features a 4GB RAM as well as 64GB of onboard storage. The device doesn’t only come with the trending full-screen design but also has a dual camera setup at the rear which is a 16MP main sensor and a 5MP secondary sensor. The device also packs a 13MP selfie camera up front. There is also a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, USB-C port and providing the interface is Android 7.0 Nougat.

The post Vkworld S8 Coming With Titanium Frame & Tempered Glass Body This October appeared first on Gizmochina.

VKWorld has three new phones in the pipleline. One is the tri bezel-less VKWorld MIX, then there is the VKWorld S8 with an 18:9 display. However, the most interesting of all is the VKWorld T2 Plus, a flip smartphone and the first to be built with a Titanium frame. VKWorld has released fresh details of the T2 Plus which are pretty interesting.

Before Huawei partnered with Porsche Design last year, the design company worked with BlackBerry years ago. Both companies jointly announced three luxury phones – the BlackBerry Porsche Design P’9981, BlackBerry Porsche Design P’9982 and BlackBerry Porsche Design P’9983. According to the info from VKWorld, the T2 Plus will use the same display found in the P’9982.

For those who don’t remember, the screen is a 4.2-inch IPS display with a 1280 x 768 resolution. It has over 500 nits of brightness and a 175° viewing angle. The VKWorld T2 Plus will have two of the displays – one will be outside and the other will be on the inside.

VKWorld also adds that apart from the titanium frame for durability, the T2 Plus will have a leather finish on the back. An official render also shows the keypad has a leather finish.

The VKWorld T2 Plus will be available in two variants:

1. Base Model: It will be powered by a MediaTek MT6737 processor. RAM and built-in storage will be 2GB and 16GB respectively. It will have a 13MP rear camera and a 5MP selfie camera. Battery capacity will be 2600mAh.
2. High-End Model: This variant will come with a MT6750T processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Like the base variant, it will have the same 1280 x 768 displays and run Android Nougat. Its rear camera will be a 16MP sensor and the selfie camera will be bumped up to 13MP. It will also feature a larger 3000mAh battery.

The base model is expected to launch first and will be priced under $200. Pre-order promotion will begin after the Chinese National Day celebrations in October.

In other news, the VKWorld MIX Plus promotion has ended and is now back to its regular price of $129.99. If you are interested, you can purchase a unit on Tomtop.

The post VKWorld T2 Plus Will Use The Same Display As The BlackBerry Porsche Design P’9982 appeared first on Gizmochina.

VKWorld is prepping up to launch new smartphones during the upcoming holiday season. The three rumored smartphones from the company are VKWorld Mix, T2 Plus and S8. Several details of the VKWorld S8 have already surfaced.

The VKWorld S8 is expected to feature a full screen design that will be supporting an aspect ratio of 18:9. However, the exact size and resolution of its display are not known.

The company claims that the screen of the VKWorld S8 is different from the other clones of Samsung Galaxy S8 as it features very thin bezels. Its top bezel is of 3.2mm only which houses an earpiece, light sensor and proximity sensor. The left and right bezels are even slimmer as they measure only 1mm. It seems that VKWorld S8 would be probably sporting the thinnest bezel in smartphones.

None of the full screen smartphones that have released so far feature large-sized batteries. The VKWorld S8 could be the first full screen phone to arrive with a mammoth battery of 5,000mAh capacity. It is Li-Po battery built by Sony. Li-Po batteries are said to be safer and durable than Li-ion batteries.

With minimal use, the battery is expected to last for 3 days and with normal use, users will be able to use the handset for 2 days. The huge battery of the VKWorld S8 will be complemented by MediaTek’s PumpExpress fast charging feature. The handset will be carrying support for 12V/2A fast charging.

As of this writing, there is no information available on the chipset that will be powering the smartphone. However, SoC of the S8 would be accompanied by 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage.

The handset will be also sporting a premium design as it will be coming with 3D glass back. As it can be seen in the above, the VKWorld S8 would be arriving in four color choices such as red, silver/white, light blue and black. The rear side of the smartphone features dual cameras. However, the exact details of both the lenses are not available. The fingerprint scanner is placed on its rear side. The smartphone also features a USB-C port.

The Chinese firm will be holding VKWorld Carnival in October. It is expected to unleash the VKWorld S8 during the upcoming event. There is no information available on the pricing of the phone.

Flip phones are not dead yet and Samsung seems to be the only major manufacturer keeping the design alive. About a month ago, the Korean company announced the SM-G9298, a flip phone with dual screens and a Snapdragon 820 SoC. That’s pretty high end for a flip phone. The Vkworld T2 Plus is also a flip phone but keeps the specs moderate and the price affordable.

The T2 Plus will have a 4.2-inch display with a 1280 x 768 resolution on both sides. Both screens will be covered by Gorilla Glass 4 for protection. The Vkworld T2 Plus also packs a titanium body just like the Essential Phone, that makes it more durable than your regular device. This is the first time we will hear of a flip phone with a titanium body.

Vkworld will release the phone in two variants. There will be a 2GB RAM +16GB ROM version and a 3GB RAM +32GB model. It will have a 13MP  sensor on the rear and a 5MP camera in front for selfies.

There are still some details that haven’t been released yet such as the processor, battery capacity, the version of Android, and the pricing. Rumor has it that the Vkworld T2 Plus will be priced under $150.

The Vkworld T2 Plus will come in three styles. There will be one with a glass design, another with a leather design and the last will be another leather design with a different pattern

The post The Vkworld T2 Plus Might Just Be The First Flip Phone With A Titanium Alloy Body appeared first on Gizmochina.

Flip phones have always attracted a small part of the crowd, but as phones became smarter and screens became bigger, their design wasn’t considered viable. As a result, there are hardly any good flip design smartphones in the market today. Samsung did show us how beautiful these phones can be even today, loaded with powerful specs inside, but they are quite costly and are limited to specific markets like South Korea and China.

VKWorld T2 Plus is like a cheaper ticket to the world of flip smartphones. The company has been releasing interesting devices for the past few months, like the Nokia 3310 clone but this device should be even more interesting, considering how limited our options are in this segment. But T2 Plus can’t just rely on its flip design to attract attention, it needs to have good specs as well.

The phone is said to upgrade the RAM, ROM, chipset, as well as battery as compared to its slow predecessor, the VKWorld T2. To be honest, that doesn’t tell us much, given that the T2 was powered by the old MT6580 quad-core chip, which made it a 3G only smartphone. So, we’ll have to wait for some real chipset, RAM details to get excited about the device.

What we do know is that the VKWorld T2 Plus will come with a 4.02-inch screen, same as the T2 but with upgraded resolution. It could either be 1280 x 720 or 1280 x 768, translating into 366 ppi or 372 ppi respectively. That’s way better than 480p on the T2. But the new T2 Plus won’t just feature a single display as the phone is said to come with dual screens and a physical keyboard. As for the design, leather and glass seem to be the two materials of choice and it is said that the phone is in trial production right now.

Expect to get more details in the coming weeks. The T2 Plus should launch sometime in the next couple of months. Their YouTube page says that the price is under $150, but we can’t confirm it yet. Meanwhile, take a look at the short teaser of the T2 Plus below. Which design do you prefer, Glass or Leather?

The post The VKWorld T2 Plus Is Here To Attract Flip Phone Lovers with Android Nougat Inside appeared first on Gizmochina.

The VKWorld Z3310 will have a 2.4-inch 240 x 320 display protected by a 3D water-drop glass. There is a 2MP super clear camera with flash and another LED at the top for seeing in the dark.

It will also come with a FM radio that can work without plugging in earphones. A Class K amplifier helps pump out sounds at a high volume. VKWorld is shipping the Z3310 with a 1450mAh battery which is larger than that of the Nokia 3310 (1200mAh) and should last 2 weeks on standby. The phone will also have 20 built-in languages.

VKWorld claims their phone is 95% similar to the original, so that should mean its better than the cheap knock-offs sold on the streets. Price is just $25!

There are plenty of phones out there and most of them have so many smart features that some of you may not even need. I just came across a $20 feature phone and I decided to give it a try. Did I like it? Learn more in the full VKWORLD Stone V3S review.

VIDEO REVIEW

UNBOXING

The phone ships with a charger, some paperwork and some extra SIM card adapters.

DESIGN and FEATURES

For $20, you get a little phone that has the IP65 rating, meaning that the phone can survive some beating. Also, it is dust and dirt resistant and the device is splash-proof.

The Vkworld V3S is a well-built phone. I love the metal used on the sides of the device, which gives a little bit of premium look and feel.

The display is definitely not the sharpest out there but it is enough for such a cheap feature phone. However, the viewing angles are bad and it is quite reflective during the cloudy day.

The nicely backlit physical keys are tactile and they are nice to the touch.

One of the key selling points of the device is a dual-LED flashlight. However, I didn’t find it brighter than your everyday smartphone.

The loudspeaker is really good as it is louder than on most of the smartphones and the sound is quite clear.

USER INTERFACE and TEST NOTES

When it comes to the user interface, you should not expect to have lots of smart features but the phone gets the basics right. We have some essential everyday apps, music player, FM radio, calendar,  a few pre-installed games and so on.

Speaking of the basics, the call quality and signal reception are great.

Since you are going to use this phone mainly for the calls and other basic stuff, the battery will last you for days.

I could not kill this phone in 1 week using two SIM cards at the same time. Even if you don’t use the phone very often, the advertised 25 day standby time is a great feature to have.

CONCLUSIONS

So, there you have it, the $20 Vkworld V3S. It’s definitely not the phone for everyone since it was designed mainly for those who need just a simple phone that is well-built and it can survive a few drops and has just the basic features.

So far the phone has worked fine for me and I believe it’s worth the $20 price tag but I’m switching back to my smartphone as I can’t live without all the smart features it has.

What about you? Do you think you would need such a phone or would you rather add $30 more and buy a cheap smartphone? Let me know in the comment section down below.

The post VKWORLD Stone V3S Review: A $20 Rugged Phone! appeared first on Gizmochina.

Thanks to innovative Chinese smartphone manufacturers, we have some beautiful low-cost smartphones in the market right now. However, one of the biggest drawbacks of cheap devices is the small display on board. Now, for most, that’s not an issue. But for some, who want a big screen smartphone, there aren’t many cheap options in the market and definitely not in the sub-$100 segment. This is where VKWorld is aiming to change things. The company is reportedly working on a new smartphone called as the VKWorld T1 and this particular device will feature a massive 6-inch body. So, what about the cost? It is said that the phone will be sold for just $59.99, which is insanely cheap for such a large screen smartphone.

And what about the body? VKWorld T1 will also reportedly come with good looks and a sturdy body thanks to the use of aluminum. The phone’s body is diamond cut with double chamfered edges, and goes through abrasive blasting, and anodic oxidation for a premium finish. There will be three colors available, silver, gray and gold.

Along with the details about the body, we also have some information on the specs of the device. For display, the VKWorld T1 features a 6-inch 2.5D screen with Corning Gorilla Glass protection. There will be a quad-core chip inside with 2GB RAM and 16GB of internal storage. At the back, you can expect a 13MP camera while up front, a 5MP shooter. All the known specs of the T1 are listed as below.

• 6-Inch 2.5D IPS Display
• Quad-Core Processor
• 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass
• 13MP+5MP Camera
• 2G RAM+16G ROM
• Micro SD Card Expansion
• Dual SIM

We still don’t know some details like the resolution of the screen or the name of the chip inside. Hopefully, we can get those details pretty soon.

So, are you interested in a low cost, good looking phablet?

Meanwhile, you can read about the flagship model from the company, the VKWorld T6 from here.

The post VKWorld T1 Is A Super Cheap Aluminum UniBody 6-inch Phablet, Cost Just $59.99 appeared first on Gizmochina.

VKWorld has as number of smartphone under its belt, but recently, this Chinese smartphone maker has been particularly quiet. But today, the company has broken the silence by revealing that it’s working on a new smartphone called as the VKWorld T6. The highlight of this phone is that it filters out the harmful blue light emitted from the display.

If you haven’t heard of the harmful effects of the blue light emitted by digital devices, here’s some info. The blue light is dangerous as it not only adversely affects our vision but also our overall health. It’s harmful because it’s the highest energy wavelength of visible light. Because of this, it can penetrate our natural filters of our eyes, thereby potentially causing damage in the long run. Other less serious problems caused by blue light are blurriness, tiredness and sometimes even burning sensation in the eye. So, although we may not realize it now, increased blue light exposure is causing us harm.

VKWorld explains that its new smartphone, the T6 filters out blue light in two ways — software and hardware. First of all, in the software department, the T6 screens out blue light by internal signal processing before image formation. Also, it reduces color distortion while maintaining high brightness.

In the hardware department, the company has modified the essential material of LED backlight, namely the phosphorus powder. There are other changes like reducing the peak wavelength of blue light from 444nm to 460nm which reportedly helps filter out 90 percent of the harmful blue rays.

Well, apart from this information, VKWorld also revealed a few specs details of the T6. The phone will come with a large 6-inch display, making it a phablet with 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. The VKWorld T6 reportedly boasts of a screen to body ratio of 80 percent. Other features include 2GB of RAM, 16GB internal storage with MicroSD support and an unknown quad-core processor. Looks like a low-end mid-ranger.

The company will release the T6 in April, but the exact date is unknown at the moment. Stay tuned for more details.

VKWorld has been quite busy the past few months, releasing a number of interesting smartphones such as the VKWorld VK700 and VK700 Pro. Now, the latest news is that the company is working on a cheap smartphone, called as the VKWorld VK700X. The phone is supposed to be super cheap, costing just about $59.99 but with specs that are quite good for this price tag.

Looks wise, from the pictures that we have come across, the VK700X seems to be well made with multiple color options like Noble Black, Diamond White and Dazzle Golden. The phone looks quite good for a $60 device with CNC metal frame and 6.9mm thin body. But we will have to reserve our judgement on the looks after we have handled the device ourselves.

As for the specs, the phone features the MT6580a quad-core chipset clocked at 1.5GHz, with 1GB RAM and 8GB of storage.  This is further expandable up to 64GB via MicroSD. There’s a 5-inch display with 720p resolution, which is quite impressive given the price tag. At the back, there’s an 8MP OV camera while up front, there will be a 5MP shooter. One of the highlights of the device is the support Android 5.1 Lollipop OS.
As you can see, the phone looks pretty good, the specs are impressive as well and the best part is that it costs just $59.99. These specs make the phone a great package for such a cheap price tag. The phone be announced sometime in October, which means we should see the launch in the next couple of weeks.

The post GIVEAWAY: Enter To Win The VKWORLD VK700 Pro Smartphone appeared first on Gizmochina.

In the past few months, we have seen a couple of big battery smartphones from the emerging Chinese smartphone maker, VKWorld. The company reportedly has some good smartphones in store for customers in the coming weeks, one of those being the VKWorld VK700 Pro. The VK700 was a decent phone with good looks and super cheap sub $80 price tag. The company has now announced the upgraded version to this device, called as the VKWorld VK700 Pro.

The new model comes with a number of upgrades to set it apart from the old version. It looks like the company has focused on the looks, using Corning’s 3D curved glass on top of its 5.5-inch display. This setup is usually found only on premium smartphones, so it will be good to see it on a mid-range device. As for the other features, the VK700 Pro will come with a CNC frame with space grade aluminum alloy body, once again giving it a premium feel.

Apart from focusing on improving the overall design, VKWorld also has reportedly worked on durability. It is said that the phone will come with a tough body, strong enough to drive in nails on a wooden block, break walnuts etc. It looks like the company is trying to compete with the strong UMI Hammer smartphone with its new release.

Other known specs include a 13MP camera at the back and a 5MP front facing shooter. Unfortunately, rest of the specs are still unknown. But considering the placement of the VK700 model, expect the new model to compete in the mid-range segment.

More details coming soon.

Time and again we have seen Chinese companies release a smartphone with a special feature to make it stand apart from the crowd. Now, we have got news that VKWorld is all set to release a flagship killer which will sport a special screen making it the world’s first Naked-Eye high definition 3D smartphone. This isn’t the first time we are hearing about a 3D smartphone, but it will be interesting to see how VKWorld plans to incorporate this tech to be able to see with naked eyes.

The phone, named as the VKWorld Discovery S1 will also feature 3D Corning® Gorilla® glass screen. The 3D glass was mainly used in curved devices like smartwatches and other wearables, but it looks like VKWorld’s Discovery S1 will come with this special glass. The company has not revealed much details about the phone’s ability to display 3D content, but we hope to receive more details soon.

Apart from the 3D display, VKWorld also says that the new Discovery S1 will be the world’s first 5.5-inch smartphone that can stand up. Now, we are not entirely sure what the company means by this claim, but its probably related to the phone’s ability to maintain its position without any external support.

Finally, the company adds that the Discovery S1 is the world’s first 5.5-inch high CNC phone. The design definitely looks good, but we will have to see the handset in real life to make judgement about its overall body.

Anyways, there’s a lot of new (claimed) features on the upcoming Discovery S1. So, we better wait and see if the device manages to fulfill all these claims in real life.
