5.5-inch octa-core MT6753 chipset, 3GB of RAM, 2,500mAh battery, support for 128GB microSD cards, 13Mpx Sony sensor, dual SIM, dual WiFi, GPS, etc., only 8mm thick. Basically, a bigger battery and more RAM than the iPhone 6s for £80 (plus VAT import, presumably).
"Coming soon" though, but worth checking out and reserving.
I hope you guys are seeing what`s happening here. I predict this time next year the UK market will be flooded with Xiaomi, Umi, Meizu, Lenovo, Doogee & all the other unknown branded phones/electronics. At incredibly budget prices. The IPhones, S6`s & Z3`s at £600 will be a thing of the past. I give Apple one more year to make a 50 billion dollar profit. The Chinese are coming.....

The Chinese need to work out how to sell the lifestyle 'image' factor to them first... most people buy Apple because it makes them feel elitist.

That's how I read it too, but then the description is a little confused and full of grammatical errors.
These maybe from a Asia model. The international version should have 800MHz activated instead of FDD2100. My advise would be to wait until confirmed as you won't be getting one until Jan so little point in pre-ordering.

UMI forum. Also confirmed it has a SONY IMX179 which is a 8mp camera not the 13mp one they were originally advertised.
Should be pretty reasonable for the price. For most people a 720p screen is OK and will help performance and battery. Only worry is the metal housing effecting reception.

$120 is the normal price.

Only problem is the small 2500mah battery IMO.
