The display stands tall at 5.7 inches in diagonal size. It has a resolution of 1,440 x 720 pixels. Yes, the screen resolution may appear low, but those thin bezels should help make viewing more enjoyable. It boasts full lamination and 10-point multi-touch support as well.
Camera
You have in the Uhans I8 an affordable entry into the dual rear camera group, which features mostly more expensive offerings. Precisely, it combines a 16MP sensor and a 3MP sensor on the rear for bokeh effects. Uhans boasts this one offers you ‘the pleasure of SLR.’ Flip the phone around and you find another robust 8MP sensor for selfie taking.
Hardware and Software
On the inside, the Uhans I8 packs an octa-core MediaTek MT6750T processor with four cores running at 1.0 GHz and another four at 1.5 GHz. Responsiveness shouldn’t suffer on this one when you consider availability of 4 GB RAM. An ARM Mali-T860 graphics solution should facilitate decent gaming experience.
