This is quite easily one of the best phones for the money.To give you a good idea of how good this phone is, I'll compare it with my previous ones from the past 4 years:+Same size, and form factor as a Galaxy Note 2 (IMO the best phone I've owned), with a slightly slower processor,+Same RAM and ROM capacity as an LG G3,+Much better at multitasking than a Moto E 2nd Gen (which is probably the only phone out of the 3 which is closest to the Note S price point)+Much bigger battery than all 3.+The screen, while only 720p, is gorgeous to look at - it's an IPS panel and it represents blacks and colours very well, it doesn't suffer from a shallow viewing angle and the brightness level is excellent.

I purchased this 'phablet' as my first android phone. I had been growing increasingly frustrated at the lack of customisation options on iPhones, so switched.I was amazed at the sturdiness of the phone, the screen is a brilliant size, and the case feels solid. I especially like that the battery, sim and memory card areas are accessible. The provided 'protective case' is a silicon/soft rubber case that moulds round the phone, and is unobtrusive. It provides a little extra grip, too. The phone also comes out of the box with an attached screen protector. I didn't actually notice this for a few days, as it was so well adhered. I have left the screen protector on,

I have to admit to being slightly wary about purchasing a phone of Chinese origin, particularly given its price point, but having had the phone for over 9 weeks I am very pleasantly surprised. I have had none of the issues that some other purchasers have experienced and so far am amazed that such a phone can be bought for so little. So far I have installed the BBC weather app, online pool, WhatsApp, Soundhound, Flickr, Navmii, and Google Chrome and none of them have given me any problems. The camera leaves something to be desired but as a basic point & shoot it's fine. I opted for the 3G version and so far it's had no difficulty picking up the O2 signal or any of the available WiFi hotspots around my town.

This phone is without a doubt a no brainer if you're looking to upgrade from your old phone, or to be your first smartphone. The quality of the IPS 720p LCD is amazing, has a mediatek6580 quadcore processor and 2GB of RAM and 12GB Memory avaliable,is great for multitasking and average for games. this phone is mainly to be used for multimedia, such browsing the internet listen to music and play casual games.It's full plastic built, but does not feel cheap in hand, the battery cover is a sort of rubberised plastic that gives you really good grip when holding the phone.The battery, advertised as 4150mha is in reality around 3700mha, massive standby time, even when playing games it lasts me around 2,5 days,The camera is not that great,

I purchased this phone as a second phone after using the Moto E 2nd Gen phone for a couple months but didn't like it as it was too bulky and overheated.Anyway, onto the Cubot - I was very skeptical at first especially as I have usually used the well known brands. I already used a Nexus 6P as my main phone so needed a second phone for my business so after reading the positive feedback I decided to take the plunge and purchased the Cubot.When I first got it, I have to admit I was very surprised at how it was packaged - good quality packaging plus the phone came with a screen protector and a case. It did come with with a USB charger & cable. As for the phone itself, it is solid and felt very well built.

My first impression are good, such a sleek and stylish looking phone.CUBOT really have presented the phone extremely well, the manufactures retail box is very stylish, far better than many other phones sold here in the UK. The Note S even comes with a screen protector already fitted, and a clear protective gel case cover, so you dont have to worry about searching the web to buy these two extra items, as they are already included.The CUBOT Note S is very sleek and stylish, I purchased the 'White' colour and it looks more expensive than it really is. I actually bought two, one came with Android 5.1 Lollipop, and one with Android 6.0 Marshmallow. I checked for available updates in the phone settings,

My 1st smartphone. Chinese tech has improved so much there's really no need to buy an expensive one to enjoy all the standard android features. This phone is a case in point. With big 5.5" crystal clear screen, Quad core, 2GB RAM & 16GB storage ( + 32GB add on with a TF card) and an enormous 4150 mAh battery running Android 6.0 why would you ever want to pay more? The spec ticks all my boxes. Phone runs fast, charges quick, supplied apps are useful rather than bloat, Android 6.0 is briliantly intuitive for a newbie like me. Unlocked Dual micro SIM means I can choose the best SIM deal available. Comes supplied with translucent bump & screen protector so it can used safely (after a full charge)

Brilliant pone for the price, looks a lot more expensive than it is and works as well as phone for £100 - £200. I recently had the wileyfox swift and this is basically the same thing. In the past I have had Samsung's as well as Iphone's among others. This is fine.It does not come with all the extra features of other phones with big price tags such as an awesome slow motion video option and the camera itself is not great but it does the job if you just need a phone for calling, texting, browsing, games and the occasional photo.The best thing by far is the battery life. I play pokemon go which is known for consuming battery life quickly as well as having the 3G connected and GPS.

I have had this phone for about 3 weeks now. This will be my third Cubot phone and I have liked all of them. The two previous ones still worked but the connector sockets became loose after time and so required some careful arangment to ensure the phone would charge up. So my last one was the Cubot 12 and I only really upgraded because I fancied a change.So this phone phone fulfils all my requirements in that I use it for browsing, texting and making calls. Where it has failed my expectations is in the life of the battery. I suppose because it is so large, I expected the get far more life out of it. Whether it is this particular battery I am not sure, but I find that with fairly light use,

Cubot is a not very well known company, Like zte but cheaper and still get very good specification.This phone has a plastic back with a metal front. Nice and sturdy. The design remindes me of the £200 samsung galaxy s5.This phone has a simple setup. What you would expect from a phone. It was a bit tricky when i tried to boot the phone sometimes because it randomly went on to the camera. It may have just been a fault in the system.Waterproof. This is not a waterproof phone but it can withdraw 5 mins in water a sink deep. 0.25m deepOverview:I rated this device 4/5 the only thing i dont really like is the cheap design. But thats what you expect for a phone for this price.

Absolutely brilliant! I bought this as a temporary replacement while my Samsung Galaxy was in for repair after bricking itself for the 3rd time. It's so good I'm still using it and haven't bothered with the Samsung.Although it lacks some sensors (compass, gravity, etc) you won't notice unless you use Google Cardboard or a similar app, and the screen is actually better than my Samsung. The phone is fast and smooth to use, never locking, pausing or juddering and battery life after the Samsung is unbelievable, probably both due to not being loaded down with Samsung's useless bloatware apps and having less sensors to run; it easily lasts 3-4 days in a good signal area.I'm never buying an over-priced brand-name phone again.

Well, after I discovered Samsung s4s dont particularly like getting drenched on the moors, I found myself in the market for a cheap alternative - enter the note s!Since receiving this, it's hardly been out of my hand. Best mini tablet IV ever purchased. The 5.5 inch screen is really useful for eBook reading, surfing the net, and GPS helped me out when lost in ashley. Had a bit of music on as well, but speaker isn't up to much and photos whilst serviceable, do get grainy when zoomed in. However, the large bright screen which at 1280 x 720 has a HD resolution that is perfectly fine. All this for £65 makes it the best bargain IV had in a long time - oh yes,

After having a Sony Xperia - then upgraded to a Samsung S7 Edge i wanted a phone that was cheaper for me.I purchased the Cubot Note S, arrived the next day and i can honestly say this phone exceeds expectations. After using the phone for a couple of days, testing it - trying new things, downloading music, apps etc. This is the best value for money phone i've ever had. If i didn't see the price and someone else showed me the phone, i would of thought it was £300 +.After using this, my sister, partner and 2 of my friends have purchased the phone!Thank you very much, excited to see what other phones 'Cubot' make in the future!
