Just bear in mind this phone (and other Chinese bought phones) has FDD-LTE:1800/2100/2600MHz so 4g wont work on o2 and will be patchy on Three and Vod
4G Frequencies...
EE uses 1800MHz & 2600MHz
o2 uses 800MHz
Vod uses 800MHz & 2600MHz
Three uses 800MHz & 1800MHz
FDD-LTE:1800/2100/2600MHz

Wow, don't know why this has been downvoted.. this is an excellent phone and I have one. Don't know about aliexpress, but the phone is top notch. Paid £120 for mine last year and is still going very strong, have just loaded another ROM on it so it's now running Android 6.0, have never had a problem with mine at all and there's loads of ROMs if you have bugs with a different one. Heated :smiley:

Great spec! Full HD screen, 2GB RAM etc. :o Shame the screen is 5.5" though, my fingers are too short for phones over 5". Plus I don't need another phone of course :smile: Heat!

Not all chinese phones are like the ones you describe though. I ordered for my brother the elephone p9000 lite and it has all the 4g bands that we use, I checked. Also looked at some other elephone phone models and they are mostly the same... the p9000, M3 both have all the bands too according to specs.
I get where you're coming from, but it's a bit false to claim that all chinese phones are missing the 800Mhz band which are the ones most people seem to care about.

Seriously tho, what's the battery life like this? I'm a heavy user

Battery life depends on room, usually all day with 3-5hrs screen time till you get the red 15%.

I have this as my main phone. It's alright. The T760 GPU is slow on full-HD, so higher-end games are quite slow - despite it getting around 45K (if I recall correctly) on Antutu. It's also laggy from time to time, and mine has some suspect Chinese software on it that can't be removed without rooting etc. Screen is lovely and it's well made in all other respects. Most of the ROMs out there have at least one thing wrong with them, so I've not really bothered tinkering with it that much. I'd recommend at this price.

Me and my daughter both bought the Elephone P8000 at launch and they have been fantastic phones with all 4G sims working correctly, mine is now a backup phone because i have a SGS6 Edge.
Opening post
2GB RAM
MTK6752 Octa
Not sure about anything else, but a good price for those specs alone.
