Design and Display
Holding the Umidigi S3 Pro might require strong biceps given the 217g weight it presents. That’s me joking though. Despite its largeness, the smartphone finds its way to be slim as shown by its 8.5mm thickness. Away from the figures, a fingerprint sensor and dual camera interrupt the real-estate of the phone’s rear.
The dewdrop notch takes off a certain amount of the 6.3-inch screen space. Meanwhile, this screen is heavily guarded by Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
But then, the glass has a curved feel due to the 2.5D glass mounted on top of it. Texts and inputs are expressed brilliantly by the FHD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels.
Battery and Camera
Umidigi isn’t here to joke especially with these sectors. The camera department, for one, is super impressive. A standard 48MP sensor with f/1.7 aperture captures finely detailed pictures. In support, a 12MP camera works out the portrait magic. In the notch area, a 20MP shooter produces crisp selfies.
Getting the Umidigi S3 Pro is synonymous to owning a power bank because the 5,150mAh battery juice is incredible to the point of generosity. It charges rapidly through the Type-C USB 2.0, and shares its power via OTG.
Hardware and Software
At the heart of the device is the MediaTek Helio P70 SoC. The 12nm chip enjoys the services of an octa-core 2.1GHz processor and Mali-G72 GPU.
It is accompanied by a sterling 6GB RAM. An expandable 128GB handles the device’s storage of files. Additionally, Umidigi S3 Pro runs on the Android 9.0 Pie out of the box.
Umidigi S3 Pro Price and Availability
The UMIDIGI S3 Pro price starts at around $299. Price in Nigeria starts at around 116,000 Naira depending on location and deal. The smartphone is available at leading international online stores.
