An Android smartphone for under $100. Let's check this out
0:12
Dave Taylor here, and I'm looking at this. This is the new x6 smartphone
0:17
Well looking at we're gonna unbox it But I want to just say it's really refreshing to see that some companies are working on phones that cost less than $1,000
0:27
I mean $1,999 $1,099 the new Motorola is $1,699 people are spending a crazy amount of money on their smartphones now
0:39
They're pretty cool, but it's really nice to occasionally look at something at the other end of the spectrum so
0:46
with our handy-dandy Package unboxing tool we're going to go ahead and unbox and open up this
0:54
X600 and see what's inside the box now while I'm doing this let me tell you that it's powered by a
1:01
Helio a 22 2 gigahertz quad core 4x cortex a 53 processor I
1:11
Don't know what any of that means either, but suffice to say it's a 2 gig quad-core
1:15
CPU has 3 gig of RAM comes with 32 gig of storage
1:20
Which is a little on the slim side But it is expandable with micro SD for another hundred and twenty eight gig if that's so what you need
1:29
It also supports. Let's see Well, let's get into it, but I want to say that it has a fingerprint sensor on the back
1:37
Which is cool that nice packaging job guys very good, so it has a fingerprint sensor on the back
1:43
It's running Android 9.0. Pie It has as we can see it's a pretty nice looking unit. We'll take it out of the plastic and
1:54
There's of course a protective cover on the front. Let's see if it ships with some battery power. Let's start
2:02
and Let's see there's already a screen protector put on it. Which is cool, but
2:08
Unfortunately, oh you know what there might not be a battery in it This might be one of these phones you have to put a battery in so suffice to say
2:15
It's also a little bit of a smaller size And I like that because it's you know the lot of these phones are getting bigger and bigger
2:21
And I hear from people all the time that they want smaller versions of things so this is a five point seven inch
2:29
HD plus screen which means it's running at 1440 by 720 so it's not quite 1080p, but it's still HD
2:38
The rear is a dual camera 13 megapixel And the front is a 5 megapixel camera and like I said already has a screen protector installed. That's nice now
2:48
What else is in the box? Let's see well. Let's see we have a
2:54
mint mobile Cleverness kit, I think that's just a starting data and sim the 5 gig a month 4g LTE data
3:05
Three months of service unlimited talk and text three and one sim card this thing supports two sim cards by the way
3:11
So you can have two entirely different phone numbers on the same phone that is super helpful
3:17
So we have this mint mobile starter package we have Getting started with your x6 and any guess that the next version is going to be the x7
3:28
Yeah, probably a new mobile sticker always important Have questions or concerns
3:34
Contact us and that is good to know and they have mint mobile and new mobile on the same card
3:41
So they're pretty close right so one of the other nice things about phones at this level is they come with a couture mall
3:48
or accessories so this one comes with an Additional screen protector, and it comes with a small case, so let's go ahead and put the case on all right off the bat
3:59
It's you know not necessarily the best case in the world, but it's certainly functional it fits perfectly and
4:07
The huge benefit of this is that it's all in the box. You don't have to go back to the store
4:12
You don't have to go online or anything you got everything you need which means that this could be great for like a teenager
4:19
Or a grandparent or someone who needs a phone But doesn't want to get into sort of the cult of mobile devices
4:26
Not that this won't run all sorts of Android apps and with Android 9.0
4:30
It obviously has the capability of running most everything and as I suspected by the way
4:36
Here's the battery so the reason it wouldn't power on is because I don't have the battery in it, so let's see
4:43
If we can put the battery in and that usually pops off the bottom
4:48
Yeah, so you know don't try this with your iPhone This will just cause vast anxiety so the back is actually plastic and with a little gentleness
5:00
Not only do we see that we can put the battery in and you just line up
5:04
the Electrical connections, so put it in I'm guessing it will come with some basic charge
5:11
We'll find out in a second But I want to point out there are two slots for two SIM cards
5:16
And then there's the micro SD expansion card so all of those actually fit in the back
5:21
Which is great because then once you close it back up you don't have any worries about anything and the sides stay nice and sleek and
5:30
One other thing I will highlight is that it has on the top a 3.5 millimeter
5:36
Aux audio jack yay. I like being able to plug in audio devices
5:42
So that's a good thing and it charges via micro USB And they could have updated, but you know you can survive with that
5:49
But now let's see if we can power it on and No, it is indeed starting up, so that's great while it's starting up. Let's see what else is in the box
6:01
so we also have no surprise a micro USB Micro-USB to USB charging cable that's pretty helpful and a wall charger
6:14
See it'll come out one way or the other There we go, so here's our little wall charger of course you can plug it into any USB device
6:23
And that's everything in the box so in terms of unboxing. That's our unboxing now
6:29
Let me tell you just a couple more specs about this is
6:35
Like I said the rear facing is a dual camera That's 13 megapixels the front facing is a 5 megapixel, and it has a 2800 milliamp hour battery
6:46
So it's not a huge battery, but it probably isn't taking a lot of demand on the battery
6:51
Which means it probably has good battery life anyway? Generally companies aim for 18 to 24 hours. I know you're laughing but
7:00
Some people are pretty hard and pretty tough with their devices in terms of actual battery usage
7:05
So turn the brightness down a little bit turn off Bluetooth if you're not using it turn off GPS
7:11
If you're not using it and your battery will last longer easy enough, right
7:15
So it is five point seven inches long by two point seven inches wide as you can see it fits
7:23
Very comfortably in my hand and the screen looks just fine. I mean, it's not a super high resolution screen
7:31
It's certainly not an Apple retina screen or anything with its like massive pixel density, but
7:38
1440 by 720 still is gonna make TV shows and streaming movies and games and everything look pretty darn nice
7:45
So, you know, it's all about expectations, you know It also has Bluetooth 4.0, which would be nice to have Bluetooth 5.0
7:53
So I guess if I had to list the things that you want to know before you decide to buy this is number one
8:00
microUSB for charging no wireless charging capability and a relatively low resolution screen though
8:07
I suspect you wouldn't even notice once you were using it and Bluetooth 4.0, which might leave you a little bit desiring you had a slightly better Bluetooth for some of the modern audio devices
8:18
But you have a 3.5 millimeter audio jack so you can plug things in to compensate
8:23
So there's that on the positive side. It's a nice looking nice feeling light small phone
8:31
Everything you need comes in the box and it's under a hundred dollars under a hundred dollars
8:35
I mean I can go and buy a case for my fancy iPhone 11 pro that costs more than this phone does
8:42
Crazy, right? So one more thing I want to talk about but before I do that
8:46
I'm gonna ask if you can subscribe to my channel. I get access to a lot of gear
8:51
I work with a lot of companies. I'm super honest I'll always tell you the straight scoop. So click that subscribe button and I really appreciate it
8:59
So this is the new x6 smartphone $99.99 at new mobile.com But when I went to their site to check things out
9:09
It popped up a dialog box that offered me a 30% off discount code
9:14
If I applied a 30% discount code to this phone, this would go down to a crazy
9:21
mind-boggling $69.99 70 bucks that is basically like a really nice dinner for two and you'd have a smartphone out of it
9:30
Kind of hard to complain about that, right? So if you're looking for a low-cost
9:36
Second phone or a phone that supports two lines or you need a phone for someone else in your family or business phone
9:42
Maybe you need to go on to supply a phone for a dozen or two people
9:46
Something like this could be a really interesting solution. Definitely worth checking out new mobile.com
9:52
