The display on the Mlais M4 Note is 5.5 inch @720p, giving us a ppi of 267. It’s a good display, with strong, pure whites and color pop.
Specs of the Mlais M4 Note are 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MT6732 SoC. This is far beyond adequate for the typical user and should be easily enough for power users and gamers as well.
While the Mlais M4 Note camera isn’t going to win any awards, when comparing social sharing size images to more expensive phones the images hold up quite well. Even 100% crops from 13mp manage to look decent.
A couple of minor bugs surfaced. One is the same bug as with the Ulefone Be Touch, that is even though the option to change background colors for the SIM icons exist, the color doesn’t change.
Interestingly, Mlais hasn’t switched to relegating the full storage as one partition. Still, they have smartly given a very large 5GB space to internal, and if that’s not enough, the storage location can be changed to the remaining 8GB.
Lollipop on the Mlais M4 Note is very stable. I experienced no force closes. Apps from Play Store are downloading, installing and updating without issue. All apps that I’ve tested have run flawlessly.
The OS is smooth and apps are properly staying in memory. Even when opening an app I’d opened 10 apps back and several hours previously, the app was still sitting in memory and instantly came up at the place where I’d last left it. The OS is deep sleeping without issue.
GPS on the Mlais M4 Note (http://www.tinydeal.com/mlais-m4-note-55-ips-ogs-mtk6732-quad-core-64-bit-4g-lte-phone-p-147391.html ) is very good, catching a cold lock within several seconds indoors. Outdoors several satellites reached an SNR in the high 30’s.
WiFi is good, maintaining a strong connection 117ft/35m on a $20 standard home router. This should be more than enough for nearly all home and business setups.
The Mlais M4 Note has worldwide 3G support with WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100 and LTE 4G 1/3/7/20. As always, check your carriers frequencies prior to purchasing a mobile.
