Nubia’s new 8000mAh power banks come in a variety of colors
Power banks have, of late, become boring and tedious. Most are just (grey) metal slabs with a lot of weight to them. ZTE’s ZTE Blade S6 seems to want to bring a change on that front. Which is perhaps why the new 8000mAh power banks from Nubia feature colorful exteriors. The fast-charge enabled power banks will come in Lava Black, Elegant White, Vibrant Orange, and Blue Sand color variants. The ZTE V5 max 4G LTE phone 8000mAh power bank was launched alongside the Nubia My Prague to give its users the convenience of mobile charging — something that a lot of companies have been looking to do lately. Fast charge, contrary to what you would’ve probably imagined, is for the input port of the power bank. The device can be charged at 2.1A/5V, and can output current at up to 1.5A/5V. Moving on to the price part, you’ll probably be disappointed to know that the 8000mAh power bank is priced 129 Yuan (US$21) in China, making ZTE one of the more expensive options around. But then, what other power bank will give you the myriad of color options to choose from?

Jiayu G6 unboxing and first impressions
What a week for unboxing videos! Today we have another for you this time it is the Jiayu G6, check it out in this hands on and unboxing.
Jiayu sprung in to action this year with the launch of the Jiayu M52. The phone shot to stardom for offering 2GB RAM, MT6752 processor and other decent hardware features at only $159.99. Reviews of the phone were good too, but as time has moved on there have been problems with updates which has taken the sheen from the brand.
Jiayu G6 review
Next up, and ahead of the flagship Jiayu M7, is the Jiayu G6. Oddly the Jiayu G6 costs the same as the M52, but features a quad-core processor. The reason for this, Jiayu say, is because they have paid more attention to the build and material of the Jiayu G6. On paper the Jiayu G6 does appear to offer a better quality construction with a metal chassis and 2.5D glass display, but what about in your hand?
Jiayu G6 review
The phone we received is an early release model, and upon opening the box it is clear to see what Jiayu were going for with the design. The 5.5-incher looks just like the Samsung Galaxy note 4 even down to the physical home button and faux leather on the rear panel.

Jiayu G6 review
Basing the design on a flagship from last year has meant the Jiayu G6 does look a little dated. The white model we have is all that eye-catching either, but a more subtle and business like black version is also available.
Jiayu G6 unboxing and first impressions
First impressions for the Jiayu G6 are mixed. Although we have a metal chassis and 2.5D glass display our sample doesn’t feel very well put together. The metal frame sits a little to high in relation to the curve of the display, and all the button rattle and jiggle in the body.
Jiayu G6 review
mtk6582 quad core JIAYU G2F Android 5.0 out of the box is a clear highlight to the Jiayu G6, and so far it feels snappy, but I cannot comment on stability just yet as I haven’t really put it through its paces. I have been informed that there is an update for the Jiayu G6 which fixes YouTube crashes which I will try.
At $159.99, Jiayu are going head to head with some serious devices. The UMi eMax costs the same but boasts a larger battery and 5.5-inch 1080 display, then there is the Bluboo X550 with similar specs and fast charging 5300mAh battery. We’ll have to see how well the Jiayu G6 Watch Phones is in our full review, and in comparison to those other phones, but so far we are betting on the rivals.
ZOPO C5 running Windows 10 in a new hands-on video!
Back in March Microsoft revealed that ZOPO C5 will be working with ZOPO in China to test Windows 10. Now a new video of the device running the OS emerges.
Microsoft made a smart move in an attempt to attract attention to its new Windows 10 OS for smartphones in China by establishing a partnership with ZOPO. Since the orginal annoucement we had seen leaked images, but now a video showing Windows 10 on the ZOPO C5 has been posted online:
From the video we can see the Windows 10 on ZOPO C5 is still in its early stages, which makes sense, since the ZOPO MINIHEI 3X system system is still in Beta even on Microsoft handsets. We can also see some of the system applications running on the device, the caller is working well, the message application, Internet Explorer, Windows Store and even Office are working flawlessly on the device.
Currently the OS should be available only to beta testers, but we keep our fingers crossed for an official public launch soon.
What’s your opinion on Windows 10? Would you like to see more Chinese phone makers embrace the alternate Quad Core Phone OS?
Thanks to Simon for the tip!
Quick 15 second teaser for the Lenovo Warrior A8 doesn't show whips but does show the leather
A 15-second Korean video teaser for the Lenovo Warrior A8 promotes the leather back edition of the handset. Lenovo's new flagship phone will be unveiled on April 28th at a media event in New York City. A huge leak earlier this month revealed a number of images showing the leather backed device along with images of the phone in metallic black, silk white, shine gold, burgundy red and moon violet.
The teaser shows how the "Genuine Leather" is cut and stitched for the 3GB RAM Lenovo K920, although we're pretty sure that this is not done by hand for each individual unit. The reason why the teaser shows April 29th as the unveiling date has to do with the difference in time between New York City and South Korea.
The Lenovo Warrior A8 features a 5.5-inch LCD display carrying a 1440 x 2560 resolution (QHD). That works out to a pixel density of 534ppi. The hexa-core Snapdragon 808 CPU will be under the hood with the Adreno 418 GPU crunching graphics. 3GB of RAM is onboard and a 3000mAh battery will keep the lights on. Lenovo has already confirmed that the rear camera will be a 16MP snapper with an aperture of f/1.8 allowing it to take quality shots even under low light conditions. Rugged Phones An 8MP camera will adorn the front of the unit.
Now, if you're ready for 15 seconds of leather, click on the video below!
