I’m going to be brutally honest — this phone is impressive for what it is. The UMIDIGI Note 100 is a performance-packed budget device that makes you seriously question why anyone’s still paying $1,000 for a mainstream flagship. But while the hardware speaks for itself, the seller’s misleading information and silence on crucial limitations make this purchase a minefield for the average buyer. Let’s talk about what works first — and then we’ll get into the problems they’re conveniently glossing over. ✅ The Positives — Why I Still Recommend This Phone 8GB of RAM (plus virtual memory support) This phone absolutely chews through multitasking. App switching is fluid, background processes don’t constantly reload, and basic gaming is handled with ease. This alone puts it lightyears ahead of most other phones in the same price range. 128GB storage with microSD support Storage is generous and expandable — a feature most major brands have killed off in the name of profit. I appreciate having control over my own storage again. All-day battery life Even with moderate to heavy use, this device lasts. The power efficiency is clearly dialed in. Clean, bloat-free Android experience No weird overlays. No carrier bloat. No unwanted apps draining performance. It's Android the way it should be — clean, smooth, and responsive. Unlocked GSM bands I activated my SIM card from a $70 prepaid AT&T Samsung phone, then popped it into this UMIDIGI. Result? Flawless calling, texting, data, and even VoLTE — despite the device not being “certified.” This trick won’t be obvious to everyone, but it’s a power move once you understand how to sidestep carrier gatekeeping. Dual SIM support Useful for anyone juggling personal and work lines, international travel, or data-only SIMs. ⚠️ The Technical Drawbacks (That You’ll Never See Mentioned in the Listing) Wi-Fi Signal is Weak Here’s a big one: Wi-Fi performance is underwhelming. Even sitting just one room away from the router, signal strength drops noticeably. Streaming and basic tasks remain usable, but speeds degrade, and latency-sensitive tasks like video calls can suffer. This points to a weak internal antenna design — a common flaw in budget phones, but nowhere in this listing does the seller even hint at it. Camera is functional, not impressive It gets the job done in daylight, but low-light shots and video clarity leave a lot to be desired. It’s acceptable, not exceptional. Speaker quality is flat and tinny Loud enough to hear, but not enjoyable. Headphones or external speakers are a must for any media. Not Verizon-compatible This is GSM only. No CDMA support, which means no Verizon, no Visible, no luck. You wouldn’t know that unless you already understand the U.S. mobile landscape. And again — the seller says nothing. 🔥 Now Let’s Talk About the Seller — and Why This Listing is Misleading Here’s the part that genuinely annoys me: the seller is either completely out of touch with the U.S. mobile market or willfully omitting critical information — and neither is acceptable. This phone is not carrier-certified in the U.S., and they don’t make that clear. They list all the supported LTE bands, but fail to explain that band support ≠ full compatibility. In the U.S., phones need to be whitelisted for VoLTE and network access — especially on AT&T and Verizon. If you just drop your SIM in and expect it to work, you’re in for a rude surprise. They don’t warn you that you might need to activate your SIM in another phone first, or that your new SIM could get rejected entirely. They don’t disclose that AT&T can block unsupported IMEIs at any time. They don’t even address the Verizon/Visible incompatibility, which is a flat-out dealbreaker for many buyers. And let’s not forget the Wi-Fi signal issues, which are very real and not acknowledged anywhere in the product description. That’s not an oversight — that’s intentional omission to make the phone sound flawless. 🎯 The Bottom Line Here’s the truth: if you know what you’re doing — if you understand how to work around AT&T’s activation requirements, and you don’t mind dealing with a few signal quirks — this phone is a phenomenal value. The performance is real. The RAM, storage, and software experience are excellent for the price. But if you’re a regular consumer just looking for a plug-and-play solution? You’re not getting the full picture from this listing — and the seller clearly has no intention of helping you get there. Buy this phone if you’re tech-savvy and want power on a budget. Avoid it if you expect full U.S. carrier support out of the box. And sellers — do better. People deserve the truth, not marketing spin.

I have used a few Umidgi phones & have thought they were pretty good. I use them for shopping, banking, bill pay, games, FB. Messenger & hoogle. For talk & text I use a flip phone because I don't want to pay for data. I used this " unlocked" smartphone for a few months before I decided to connect it with my provider for talk & text in stead of the flip phone. I was on the phone with my provider for almost an hour before I discovered that this " unlocked" phone is only compatible with AT&T. If you have another provider, this is not the phone for you. I found this deceptive in the Notebooks description when I was looking into buying an unlocked phone. I have had it for too long to return it so I'll just hang onto it I suppose.

Awesome phone for the price. Easily performs just as well as a Galaxy S26. With the 8 GB Ram and 256gb storage and the Unisoc chip I can play games at full resolution without slowdown, however the phone does get hot but that is to be expected. The NFC is great, just wish it had wireless charging but it does everything I need it to do and more so I am very satisfied. Even comes with a case! Definitely worth the $150

I ended up sending this back. Downloaded all of my old phone information (twice) and it would not start up. Kept giving me an error message of "Quickstep keeps stopping". Disappointed.

I bought this phone for my grandson and we all loved it so much we are all thinking about buying ourselves one and giving up our high-end phones. We will wait a little bit longer just to make sure but it is a beautiful phone it is fast the picture is beautiful the battery lasts a long time and that is the reason why I got it for my grandson. We are very pleased and he of course loves it.

It's a little hard to judge a phone on initial impressions since so much of what makes a phone good takes time to figure out; battery life, reception, etc. I'm not planning on using this connected to a cell network, just as kind of a little tablet, so unfortunately I can't say anything about network compatability. What I can say is that I did give it a run down on wifi and here's what I found: Good - Youtube videos and basic web browsing run just fine. It doesn't get hot trying to do these basic tasks, and an hour used about 15% of the battery. -It has a fingerprint scanner, which isn't something I'm used to seeing on super-budget phones. -Updates. The OS was patched recently and there was a new hardware revision ready to upgrade to. Neutral - The build quality. It doesn't feel amazing; I have a Umidigi tablet and it shares the same rough edges, but the case is sturdy and doesn't flex. If you use the included protector, you don't notice the roughness and itfeels sturdy. - The size and screen. The phone is actually a little larger than my 2024 Moto Stylus, but the screen is about the same size. It has a bit of a 'chin' on it. -The screen. It claims 90hz but it doesn't feel like 90hz; it could be that the processor isn't up to driving a fast screen, but it feels much choppier, closer to 50. That said the colors are vibrant and the screen is bright; the blacks are dark and the viewing angle is very wide. -The OS. It uses Android 14 Go, not full Android. Some software may not work. Bad - While using the ui is snappy enough, it does get notacably laggy at points. Most obviously swiping down the top screen menu. - Very slow charging. The charging is so slow that when I was using it while plugged in, the battery percentage was actually going down. - Terrible camera. Just bad. Blurry, noisy, essentially unsuable. - Only 2.4ghz wifi - there doesn't appear to be any 5ghz wifi functionality at all.

The value in this phone is huge. It's excellent and worked immediately with my wifi and sim card from boost mobile. All the features of the very expensive phones out there. Your gonna love it.

The front camera sucks and the finger print sensor doesn't work

Das Einrichten des Handys war sehr gut und verständlich beschrieben. Das Gasamtergebnis war vollständige Zufriedenheit.

柔らかいTPU？のケースと画面フィルムが最初から付いていることに驚きました。 専用のものを探さなくても安心ですね。 ただ、ケースはわかりましたが、まさか液晶にすでにフィルムが付いているとは思わず剥がしてしまいました。 お気をつけください。 スマホの使用感は、ひと昔前のスマホといった感じ。 使い始めてすぐに、少しモッサリしていると感じました。 特に最近のスマホを使っている方にはメインスマホにするには少し辛いモッサリ感です。 またカメラに関してですが、 ３つのレンズが搭載されているように見えますが、 実際ほ左上の１つのみです。 右はライト、左下に関してはただの飾りのようです。 さらに、実際のレンズのサイズに対して、レンズ縁がかなりでかいので、実際はiPhone8ぐらいのレンズが搭載されていると思った方がよいでしょう。 カメラアプリに関して言うと、 普通の写真を撮ってもすぐには表示できず、処理中と表示されかなり待たされます。 また、撮った写真の左下になぜかロゴが表示されてしまいます。 面白いのは、FMチューナーが搭載されていること。 有線イヤホンがアンテナとして必要ですが、懐かしかったです。 また、画面のサイズはかなり大きいです。 iPhone 15ProMaxと同等くらいのサイズで、動画用としても良いサイズ感です。 液晶ですが、画質が特段悪いというわけでもないです。 右側に縦長の電源ボタンで指紋認証機能も搭載されているのは、この価格を考えるとすごいです。 ただ、場所とボタンの細さで使いにくいとは思いました。 精度は悪くなく、登録した指でしっかりボタンを押すと一瞬でホーム画面が開きます。 Android14が搭載されていました。 少し古いですが、グーグルのAndroidなので、アプリの種類や数に関しては全く問題ありません。 値段を考えたら、かなり優秀なスマホです。 メインスマホとしての使用は少し我慢が必要な部分もありますが、 子どものスマホとしてや、特定の用途で使用したいAndroidスマホを探している方にはかなりおすすめできます。

良い本

El teléfono es muy bonito, tiene buen tamaño, para el precio funciona bien. Lo que no me gusta mucho es que las imágenes se ven un poco opacas, y algunas veces no me detecta la huella y debo estar poniendo la clave. Por lo demás, está bien.

Prima toestel alle functies zitten er op makkelijk in gebruik en bediening
