Wiko Rainbow UP 4G retains the relatively slim profile of the non-LTE variant, coming in at 8.35 millimetres. It weighs about the same as the other phone at 128 grams. The handset features a plastic body, but nonetheless still looks attractive with its slightly curved corners.
Wiko Rainbow UP 4G sports a 5-inch diagonal display with an HD resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels offering you pleasant clarity. The IPS panel should offer you nice wide-angle viewing as well. The touch display boasts Full Lamination and is protected by Dragontrail glass.
