These facilities produce some nine million phones each month, an impressive figure for a company that only came into existence in 2006. The current line-up is just four designs that include the P9000 Max, P60, P10 and the P8 reviewed here.

We don’t know exactly how many Chinese phone makers are out there, but there’s a lot of them, that’s for sure. Today, we’ll be looking at a handset from Ulefone, one of the bigger phone makers in that region, with a large selection of models.
