The way it seems, Cubot roll out smartphones that are often look alike and the way it appears that is what their budget release is about. The Cubot Nova is another smartphone in the long list of smartphones that the Chinese OEM have put forth. Like the rest, the smartphone ships with mediocre specs which are really not meant to wow you but rather offer basic smarts. It is worthy of note, to point out that the smartphone is 4G compatible on both SIM.

Cubot is a Chinese OEM that is largely concerned with low budget smartphones where it has carved a niche for itself. Although, it is certainly not one of the high flyers in this category, it offers highly affordable smartphones with a fair number of features. With these I am introducing the Cubot R11 which falls into the category above, albeit, having a more stylish design. However, the images from these companies can be quite misleading to what the actual smartphone look like so don't expect too much as it is just an entry level smartphone.

Apparently the way smartphone looks have been evolving over time especially recently. Oppo has just released its latest mid-range smartphone which by the way features a modified notch. Quite frankly, the features on the smartphone is nice but certainly nothing to fuss about. However, the way the smartphone is made is the major standout defining factor from the competition out there. You would also be getting a number of cool nice features like VOOC fast charge, premium glass build and some fairly powerful mid-range hardware.

The Meizu 16 has been in the pipe for a while now with leaks and rumours flying around. The smartphone is here and guess what? It will be Meizu"s first high-end flagship to be made. It follows the recent smartphone trends when it has to do with the design unlike the Meizu 15 which was somewhat a classica piece. Meizu's new flagship is one that has most of the boxes ticked when it has anything to do with flagship features.
