In stock in the EU Warehouse - If you use the automatic Banggood 10% off code you can get it for 51.24, I ordered mine on tuesday and it is out for delivery already! Surely £3 more is worth it for up to a months lss wait for delivery from china, potential for a more reliable warranty if brought within the EU as well!

Hi, I'm a member, 18 posts, and I cant open any of the links, no permissions. WTF?

Let me know! Also I am very impressed with the phone HOWEVER, does anyone think the battery is REALLY whack? for £50 cant complain but if I am listening to youtube while at work I need to keep the phone on charge!

It might work in a shaver socket, lol.
I have queried that with Bg also though - they seemed surprised and are getting back to me. I'll report back...

Where are these really coming from ?
It says free UK delivery lower down the page and by Royal mail.
But the only delivery option is flyt UK express at £3.17 ( taking 2-6 business days )

Must be the EU because I ordered mine on Tuesday dispatched Wednesday and came Friday. The tracking is very detailed from flyuk as well!

I know this is a bit late - but I'm pretty sure the EU warehouse is in the UK. Mine took just a few days to arrive by courier.

Cheers! I will do that. I've ordered a glass protector, so will keep the film on until that arrives.
Did you get a UK charger or 2 pin?

Thanks - that's really helpful, as mine looks the same but the film is so well applied, I wasn't sure if I was looking at the "final" surface or not. I have a support call into bg about it.
Did you receive a UK charger?

Must admit I found scrolling a bit 'laggy'
So removed the factory protector, its definitely a lot 'thicker' than any protector Ive seen before
I've now replaced it with with a glass one and wow! what a difference
Smoother than my Note 3!
To remove the original, stick some cello-tape over a corner / face and carefully raise it from there
Great Case but takes about two years to arrive :smile:

well that was quick ordered the CUBOT X15 5.5 Inch 2GB RAM MTK6735 1.3GHz 64Bit Quad-core 4G Smartphone on saturday recieved today,great looking phone for the pennies.

A question for anyone who's received one of these: Did it come with a screen protector in place?
Mine looks as though it has, but it is impossible to peel it off (haven't tried with great force). It is obviously scratched though.
Is this a temporary screen cover to be removed, or is it meant to remain on the unit, and therefore I should return this?
Also - the sticker advising about removing the battery tape - where was yours?
aydenthelion to JayDubya
15 Dec 15#40
Mine came with it, I thought the phone was scratched and went mad! But peeled it a bit just to make sure and it was fine! You can keep it on or remove it your choice..

Delivery was swift for me with UK Mail - BUT, they completely ignored the extra instructions I filled in via their web site and left the package outside next to my wheelie bin... IN THE RAIN!

I bought a phone from Banggood a few weeks ago and I wasn't charged anything over and above the price for the phone.

I got mine from Banggood EU warehouse. Ordered on Wednesday, arrived on Friday. No import taxes, brilliant phone. I have a Z3 compact with a smashed screen, and this is a good replacement. Obviously not as good, but good enough

If anyone wants to root and install recovery, there's a relatively straightforward method here:
I've got it to work, but others haven't. Report back if you manage to get it to work, especially with the latest R09 update.

These phones are brilliant value for money; my old lenovo p780 quadcore mtk occasionally spontaneously reboots and has poorer reception both gps and phone, this doogee has yet to crash and has the best reception -GPS and phone- of any phone I have owned. 2gb ram and 16gb flash gives plenty of space for apps that dont run well from sd card. It has a clear bright screen. Dual small sim. 4g works for O2, dont know about other carriers.
No magnetic compass, two point touchscreen and a battery that lasts a day of moderate use (but spare batteries cost little on gearbest), a bit plasticy, poorish cameras, 32GB max sd card (doesnt see 64gb). Playback of music on internal speaker not too good, but OK for me. Slow charging (as opposed to newer 30min fast charge phones).

It definitely works with my 64GB MicroSD card.

Couldn't get a signal on my Note 3 (Voda) at home but now getting two bars on the X5
Not to the standards of S6 or G4.. Camera s decent for the price

eEE and Three 800 Mhz and 1800 Mhz. O2 and Vodafone work on 800 Mhz on 4G LTE bands. So yes if you use one of those 4

Does anyone know how to remove the sound limiter? I did find one guide online but it warns you could brick the phone... would love a non-bricking method from those in the know :smiley:

Someone over on Amazon reviewed it and wrote
Engineering menu - just open the dialler and type *#*#3646633#*#* . Do note you have to know what you're doing with this, you may damage or brick your phone. I used this to increase the max volume over the headphones. For CE certification, Brussels insists on a certain max volume which I find too low on most phones.
If the games are downloaded via Playstore, then they are linked to your Google account, so as long as you used the same account you can download them again without paying for them again (assuming you paid for them). All your games will be listed under the 'My Apps' tab.

Can you use 2 x Three network sims or is one slot 2g only?
AndyRoyd to nokmondoo
11 Dec 15#13
My 3 SIM only seemed to work in SIM slot 1, so I guess slot 2 is 2G-only.

am thinking of getting one of these phones to use on a trip abroad instead of my note 4......would it simple to move things like whatsapp over to this and then back again when i return?
aydenthelion to fauji786
11 Dec 15#3
I'm not too sure, pretty much an android question not a phone question so if you search your issue on Google you will probably find the answer!

If you are going to move the SIM card from Note 4 to new phone then:
-install whatsapp and all other communication apps and they will work as normal as the accounts are linked to your mobile number. I'm not sure if you'll have all your chat sessions but you will definitely have your contacts and they will see you as normal
-Facebook and Skype are independent of SIM and mobile number and just require a log in.
-Games however are normally phone dependent as saved games (if applicable) will be saved to the internal memory
If you are not going to move your SIM to the new phone then you will NOT have all your Whatsapp chat sessions. Your contacts may be ported over if they are saved on the Google Cloud.
