Editorial report

Elephone U5 technical sheet

The Elephone U5 suits buyers looking for a large display and a high-resolution main camera, provided they accept a battery and charging setup that trails most phones of its time. Its 4,000 mAh battery and 10 W charging are the clearest trade-off: both are weaker than those on most phones launched around the same time.

The 6.4-inch IPS LCD display has 398 ppi, an above-average pixel density. Its 86% screen-to-body ratio is also better than on most phones of its time. The main camera’s 48 MP resolution is above average, though its f/2 aperture is dimmer than that of most contemporaries. AnTuTu performance is below average, with a result of 182,300. The U5 pairs that chip with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of expandable storage.

NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi and support for two Nano-SIM cards are included. Even so, its connectivity is weaker than on most phones launched around the same time. The overall picture is below average: the display fares better, while battery and connectivity are weaker points. The Elephone U5 earns a NeoScore of 4.2. It is best suited to buyers who value a sharp screen and expandable storage more than battery capacity and fast charging.
