The dead-pan sarcasm over this MAJESTIC specimen is just classic Dawid. Neko unlocking the phone with his paw was the cherry on top.
If you like him so much why don’t you marry him?
We need another Anna video. :)
What have you done with dawid where is he free him
You know Dawid too well...
@@AkashSingh-nc4guNot possible because Anna is there...
What is hilarious is even though that phone is cheap af they can still afford to include an inbox screen protector and charging cable and a 3.5 mm jack lol.
Welcome to the Scam that Apple has been running for most of its mobile phone producing existence.
China makes some great cheap phones. Redmi and Umidigi, for example. The latter of which has very solid, non-meme, 70-120$ phones with 10-30W chargers included. Just gotta keep jumping companies to save a bunch of money. First Huawei made great value phones, became huge, became overpriced like Samsung and Apple. Then it was Oneplus, then Xiomi.
@@Rspsand07 my mom recently bought one of those cheaps Umidigi phones, and compared to my sister's same price realme phone, it seems pretty garbage. It's insanely laggy and seems in quality more like the phone shown in this video. The realme one (C11 i think it is) seems pretty decent overall.
The phone was made in china for about £10. The screen protector and charging cable combined probably cost them no more than 50 pence to make.
Apple don't give you a screen protector or charging plug because they don't have to - their brand is big enough that they know people will buy their products without a plug or earphones, and won't refuse to buy them simply because there's no plug or earphones.
If a brand new mobile phone company came to the market however, and sold a brand new phone but sold it without a charger or earphones they might find their uptake isn't that great.
Yeah because those things are cheap.
My main problem is that as a purple iPhone 14 Pro owner, I'm jealous that you managed to get the one purple titanium 15 Pro they made. The rest seems correct, my iPhone can't properly run Android either.
Finally Dawid found the rabbithole of WELCOME phones on Aliexpress.
Good luck on your future adventures in this space!
Connoisseur of Smoorez's fine art, I see. 😁
@@Mikoto-Misaka Can't wait for Dawid to discover the PP phone or the Ainol tablet

My mum bought a similar thing from Wish a while back. When she told me I begged her to cancel the order but she was adamant it was a real high-end phone for £50 and she was just getting a brilliant bargain.
Needless to say it barely turned on and it spoofed the memory capacity.
Yeah, it’s immensely frustrating when parents (or anyone, really) refuse to listen to you because they just _must_ be right. Even more frustrating when it’s a field you know a lot about and you know for sure they don’t understand at all.
Older parents and tech. It’s like trying to convince a flat earther they don’t understand science. Head, meet brick wall.
@@archgirlThat's pretty much all due to the misconception that older people are wiser, more intelligent, etc. than younger people just because of age. Since older people have more "life experience", they must be correct about everything by default and there's no way they can be proven wrong by a younger person
Obviously there are quite a few cases where age does translate to experience etc, but when it comes to the age old scenario of 'mum who has no clue about technology', then chances are a younger person (e.g. their son/daughter) will know a fair amount more than her. Unfortunately, a lot of older people let the "I'm older = I know more than you" thing go to their heads way too much
@@TennysonPesco Yes, very true. Although, I will say, it’s not _always_ on account of age (although that’s certainly one of, if not _the,_ biggest excuses used).
Not exactly the same kind of situation, but I recently had a 30 year old woman insist that Linux isn’t suitable, in any meaning of the word, for any task whatsoever. Her reasoning? Because it doesn’t support the rootkit anti-cheat implemented by Riot in the game Valorant. Because Valorant won’t work on Linux, Linux is completely incapable of doing anything at all, and nobody on Earth should use it for any reason whatsoever, no matter the use case. I was astonished, and highly amused. But that tends to be the kinds of things you frequently hear from those who don’t use it. I take no issue with those who don’t want to use Linux (for whatever reason), but it’s frustrating when you frequently hear that those no reason anybody should use it at all. Even more so because you frequently hear that kind of sentiment from those who have never even tried to use it, and from those who don’t even know enough about their own machine to tell you why Windows would be better.
@@TennysonPesco Not only that - a common theme in many of these scams is greed. Either by thinking they're getting an exceptional deal and pulling one over the seller (Hah, an iPhone 15 for $100? I'm robbing them blind!) or the sort of phone scammers that Kitboga et al. cover (Hah, this guy is putting more in my account? I'm robbing him blind!)
And of course Boomers are by far the most greedy generation to ever exist, so they are especially susceptible.
@@TennysonPesco Some of us are wiser in the Techverse but mostly it's those of us who have been involved with tech in some way, since we were children.
"I can't download apps because of google not working"
Seems you forgot about loading apps from APK files that you load on your phone. This functionality alone makes old phones and tablets with old versions of Android still useful.
b, b, but that is bad because companies told me that's bad. What if virus !?
@@Gatorade69 that's where personal responsibility comes in.
Oh, wait, i forget that people hate that and want a nice safe bubble wrapped world.
Give me viruses or give me death.
lol.
A lot of Google apps refuse to work on old devices even when hacked in. They finally discontinued app support for my hacked Fire 7.
I'm really surprised he didn't think of that/go that route. That's also what most other people on TH-cam do when "reviewing" weird/sketchy chinese android devices. There are a couple hardware info apps that let you see the real specs without needing a PC and there are also ways to find hidden apps and services. I saw a video where someone even found a hidden app that lets you change the displayed specs (as most of these devices use more or less identical hardware and the different variants, such as storage capacity, are set through an app at the factory). It's also interesting to see if there's anything obviously sketchy running on such a device, like maybe a nondescript system app with many/all permissions that could potentially be spyware.
they dropped support on lollipop
Damn, an MT6582, that brings back memories. My second phone had a MT6592, which was a 8 cores SoC and already massively better than the MT6582 (and there was also a MT6572, which was a dual-core). Even for the time, it wasn't great, but it was a decent mid-ish range phone, "the time" being around early 2014. On top of being a 10 years old SoC, I remember the Android 5.0 firmware being incredibly buggy on those, with unstable drivers and a lot of apps not working properly, Mediatek was just providing it as a base for the OEM, but no one ever modified it. It's crazy that they're still selling scam phone with the exact same hardware, you would think even the crappy SoC would've improved, but no.
I had a THL 5000 with a MediaTek MT6592T running kitkat, I've been running android so long now cant remember which dessert I started with I think my first android phone was Froyo
@@moorhen6156The Gobi desert ?
Actually had MT6572(2014) and MT6582(2015-17) phones from a crappy local brand from eastern Europe. I recognize the MOLY.WR8 baseband version at 7:00. I remember I got both phones rooted through Kingoroot. The only problem was that I couldn't find a working TWRP/CWM recovery for them, so I had to be careful with what I modified on them to avoid a soft brick. Still ended up running Xposed Framework with GravityBox and other cool modules. Both had pretty much stock Android 4.4 KitKat, so they were ok to use despite the low-end specs. By default they were pretty terrible phones but rooting made things a lot better in every way.
@@Gatorade69 lol I swear I pressed s twice
I had a Blu Studio 6.0 (wasn't my first second or third phone tbh) which had the MT6582 in it. Phone was barely more than just a cellphone when it launched... probably why it's barely a cellphone now with an updated casing lol. My first cellphone was either a Motorola i730 (nextel) or a Nokia 3310... I don't remember which one I had first lol
Good to see Neko is broadening his tech skills to include mobile devices.
When you put your cat's paw on the phone and it opened I could not stop laughing, Great Review!!
Given that Neko can unlock that phone, the phone is now officially his
This was some next level sarcasm.. these are the types of videos that make your channel great!
smoorez viewers know damn well it's a 1gb ram with 8gb storage and an mtk6580 soc with a 480p screen and a 2mp camera
Must admit, I was waiting for you to slap a high end video card on it and try to game on it!
I used an ancient iPhone 3gs (from 2009) until last year when the 3g network shutdown in the states. I feel like it would give that thing a run for its money. If Canadia still has 3g you'd get legit blue bubbles too.
Wow, you got the brand new iPhone 15 Pro Max "Venereal disease" edition.
Dawid clearly doesn't watch Smoorez or else he'd have known that the "fingerprint" sensor also works with your tongue, eye, vas deferans, taint, basically any skin.
I was hoping to see if Dawid could get Half Life 2 running on it.
The cat unlocking the phone was awesome! Well done funny stuff.
I don't know why but I really enjoy exploring the cheap products over the super expensive ones like this, much more interesting to see how they do so much with less.
Edit: +1 for cat, needs more
I haven’t laughed out loud so much in a while, great video!
android 5 itself shouldn't be the issue with not being able to sign in, it's probably something else. I have signed into my account with an android 5 device in the beginning of this month. They probably didn't installed the google apps properly. Also you can just install apk files.
Smoorez and David need a colab series on Welcome phones 😂
Dawid has started the deep and very economically unsustainable dive into the welcome phone rabbit hole
Sarcasm level master pro !!! You rock Dawid keep it up ... Pssst... more prebuilds review
"Blair Witch quality video" is actually one of my favorite video qualities out there. It feels like you're using a VHS camera to record your camping trip! 😂
The cat's paw had me rolling! 🤣🤣🤣
Dawid always makes me laugh!
Not seen any of your videos before but really enjoyed that😂. You’ve got yourself a new subscriber 👍🏻😃
The sarcasm is legendary. I’d watch Dawid explain the process of paint drying.
5:38 "Someone throwing faeces on a bus" WTF Dawid, ROFL! 😂
Hugh Jeffries has reviewed several of these, they're all basically the same phone with a different case.
I absolutely LOST it at the cat-paw unlocking.🤣🤣🤣
I demand more cat paw tests! :D
Loved the video, it was hilarious thank you for entertaining us.
When Dawid Does Tech Sarcasm, Dawid really does tech sarcasm.. :D
Dawid Never fails to deliver top-tier sarcasm.
Cat unlocking the phone made my day
Excellent content as always
The cats paw working is amazing
Loved the cat paw unlock
Side loading is a thing on all android
And you can get apk's for any program fairly easy
The cat paw unlock is definitely a feature.
4:32 apartment is looking much cozier now without an entire youtube studio crammed inside lol
The notice on the box is amazing. Some layers forgot their medication. Look at that hodgepodge of things you need to know, before opening:
HD Voice will be available only if your service provider supports HD Voice service.
Android is a trademark of Google inc.
Rear camera self-timer function
Well done Dawid and Anna. Cant wait until the next one!
I saw years ago a phone that was this awesome. It was a BlackBerry Z30...with Android. Imagine that. But these makers are creative, what can I say.
I could see it being useful as a low budget prop for indie homemade movies and videos. It technically works and looks the part of a new phone at a glance.
Couldn't they just get the cast members to use their own real iPhones?
@@gummboote Not if the script included throwing the phone at a protagonist😊😊
I have the same phone and the actual specs of it are:
1gb of ram+15gb of virtual memory
16gb of rom
if you can't see these values is because they are overwritten in the firmware but i found them via pc testings
Why would you have that phone
because it's majestic!
@@xeon39688 Because it's almost as good as a real iphone, probably.
How did you test this?, my dad bought this and we need proof to return it
@@Vern7 for the rom i Remember that while using WinRAR android It said 12gb of rom instead 1tb, for ram when i did some thingss via PC It said that this device had about 1gb of ram so that leaves the other 15 as virtuale ram, then for the os It was Easy to identify that It was android 6.0 since It did lack certain functions in the settings
Lmao the oh wow oh this oh that exclamations made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂
i love the fact that it wont matter what you do or what you make i just wanna see the video nice job 👍
more of any ordered junk please !!! 🙂
Definitely need to see more Neko shenanigans at the end of the vids 😄
And what did you expect from a $70 phone? It calls, texts, takes some sort of pictures for a price of an inexpensive dinner for two...
Proper lol’d at the nose/cat 😂
Your cats paw unluck function seems like a gamechanger. 🤣
I'm loving the Apple laced satire! 🤣
@01:40 apple you spoil us lol
Very funny video... please add more Neko cameo action in the future.
the camera made me laugh, then dawid mentioned blair witch project and I actually became deeply infatuated with its low fi tendencies. If this wasn't probably an absolute horrorshow to pull footage off of it'd be fun to use just for that.
This guys hilarious but super clever, great stuff!
4:29 You were getting a thumbs up anyway, as always, but when I see sweet pets I immediately stop and like before I forget!
I had an MT6572 device (the dual core brother) back in 2014 up until early 2016. It ran android 4.2, and with root it had some margin for improvements, but I clearly remember AliExpress selling quad core devices for around 100/110 USD, like doogee, ulefone, elephone and so on. Even some cool Galaxy and iPhone clones had this chip, for around 150/200!
9 years later these have become disposable devices, if they weren't already when born. What awesome memories!
Looking good Dawid. 👍
I am more convinced to buy too. Thank you
4:27 aww cute cat! Love cute cats 😻
Thumbed up at point of "even my cats paw worked" 🤣
Dawid can you review a fujutsu Pre build pls (beacause ive seen dell asus etc. prebuilds but no fujitsu :( .)
The worlds first 100% accurate under screen fingerprint sensor! Never fails!
False acceptance is a failure.
@@typingcat Sarcasm on the internet is dead.
With those fake phones, sometimes you can use ADB to find hidden apps they use to set stats and stuff, then run them and edit it to even more ridiculous numbers and stuff. Like you can be "proud owner" of new Android 16 phone before Google even thought of making one. :-D Because they often leave those behind, they just aren't listed in Android. Also fingerprint sensor usually is just fake and anything triggering touch screen in sensor area will unlock it, fully counting on use never trying anything but registered finger. Same goes for other stuff too. Also you likely would have to use ADB or something to sideload apps, making sure they are compatible with actual Android version there. Since it can be that old.
dawid upload from like 15mins ago? wowsers!
were you able to get apps from the apple store?
And brilliant never sponsored David again😂
2:05 The Cameras :DDDDDD
Bro the cats paw unlocking the phone was the icing on the cake
The sarcasm is always the best
This made me laugh from start to end 😂
My s21 does the gimmick fingerprint. What is actually happening is your face was recognized and the finger merely unlocks the screen.
Next time perhaps you could try sideloading apps using apks just to test gaming performance and run benchmarks. Love the video!
more cat please!
My second favourite, Dawid, Dawid malan england Batsmen comes first, of course 😂
@3:30 - "Friday, January 10". Man, this video must have been sitting in the bin for a looooong time 'cos the last time January 10th was on a Friday was back in 2020. :)
Dawid, I wish I could think of a stupid subject to recommend for you to cover, but dang, it's hard to think that stupid. Love it, keep it up!
It's honestly absurd something like this can be made and sold for $70.
You da best, main!
*This* - THIS is proper content
Did those earbuds have an Air Canada logo on them?
to install apps apks which put in micro sd card put in the 'phone' then you can install them
5:23 you can add a Google account in the settings maybe? If that works, the play store will automatically use it device wide
About the millionth fake iPhone review on TH-cam now I’d say.
I want to see you try to build a laptop (not from an Assembly kit)
Holy crap! A Courage port!
I definitely didn't see that coming.
Bro trying to download app by opening Play Store on browser 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Man you do good comedy
Dawid’s sarcasm 😂😂
Have you done a cheapest useable phone video?
In 2019 I had a cubot x19 it cost me £95 and it was an excellent phone for the money. Faultless. And had vanilla android.
Welcome phones are the absolute best! You should a colab video with Smoorez :)
5:35 maybe you could sideload the apps
7:08 and what's the problem with sideloading apps? It's not like they don't exist outside of google play.
dying at the headfone jack, also how off centered vertically it is really tilts my OCD.
Fingerprint added to chinese records is probably a bonus feature. or maybe to the cat video database.
