Elephone False Advertising - Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion

I've come to notice the images Elephone uses to advertise their phone are highly modified. As you can see below, the advertised renders show non-existent bezels which are not true to life. I'm interested to hear how others feel about this.

Yes..they claim many things in the phone like android pay, fast charge and 0.1 second fingerprint

All respect to you Andythedev and not to excuse Elephone - but all Makers are guilty of such practise to some extent or other - unless they are hit with fine or mass social media 'something-gate' , zero will happen. All we can do is -
1) NEVER , EVER, PRE-ORDER
2) Check the reviews and do your research - as you showed in your post the actual images of bezels vs their market blurb.
3) If such anomaly is known, is it a show stopper?
4) Buy / do not buy ... based on the previous 1,2,3 formula

Samsung has a smart watch on the way, a company executive recently confirmed. “We’ve been preparing the watch product for so long,” the company’s executive vice president of mobile Lee Young Hee told*Bloomberg. “We are working very hard to get ready for it.” Samsung recently introduced the Galaxy S4 with a bevvy of accessories, including a smart wrist band that can keep track of calories burned, distance traveled and more, but this is an entirely different product.
Screenshots from*Samsung’s alleged smart watch leaked in mid-February, showing off what appeared to be a version of Android and the “Altius” moniker. The shots suggested that users will not only be able to check the time but also check maps, control music, manage their inbox and more.
Apple, too, is allegedly working on an iWatch, and we imagine there’s going to be a race to the market in some form or another. Samsung’s executive didn’t say when the watch will hit the market, although the urgency in hits quotes suggested Samsung’s working to get it to market as soon as possible.
@mods i cant find the section that fits this news so please move to where it should be

LeEco CEO Jia Yueting: “Apple is outdated”

It’s often said that first impressions are the most important, so make each one count.
Such is indeed the impression Jia Yueting inevitably left in his first international television interview.

Mr. Yueting, the 43-year old CEO of China’s LeEco conglomerate, was recently interviewed by CNBC
during this past weekend’s China Entrepreneur Club event, and had a number of bold statements to offer,
including some very critical ones pertaining to Apple.
Mr. Yueting called the house that Steve Jobs built “outdated”
and cited such a belief as the reason Cupertino is losing momentum in China:
One of the most important reasons [for slowing sales]
is that Apple’s innovation has become extremely slow.
For example, a month ago Apple launched the iPhone SE.
From an industry insider’s perspective, this is a product with a very low level of technology…
We think this is something they just shouldn’t have done.

Hi all, I recently bought two of these watches for my kids, as a Christmas present. Perhaps abruptly, but it seemed attractive price and quite complete features for children ages 8 and 10. Then I have seen problems using the application "Care Escort 2", registration problem in this application, etc.
Does anyone know more than the pure propaganda offered by vendors (there are not many) of this watch that has chip MTK 2603?. What would I can expect from him (changing wallpapers?... Personalization screens?... Does anyone know a terminal similar to this? (Several models look alike, but I find no reviews of it or more information from the manufacturer, operating system or anything else...).
may be too new (?) or old already (?) or not as good, no or I know. Seller, once sold, do not know, know little or not answer, assuming you have already placed...
Thanks in advance, any information to elders about this "unknown watch" so far, if it deserves your reflection and inquiry, thank you sincerely.
