Reviews for the Elephone P8000
The price-performance elephant. A smartphone with Full HD, LTE, fingerprint scanner and metal casing for not quite 200 Euros (~$226)? That sounds too good to be true! But the Elephone P8000 features just that, and we will uncover whether there is a catch somewhere.

For the asking price the P8000 is an impressive amount of gadget. The MediaTek SoC provides ample power, the 5.5-inch IPS screen is easy on the eye if potentially fragile, the cameras are both perfectly serviceable, both SIM slots support 4G service, and there’s a microSD card slot to back up the built-in 16GB of storage.

So there you have it for this in-depth look at the Elephone P8000! As impressive as this device looks on paper, there are a lot of issues that show up when it comes to real world performance. While the battery life is amazing, and the display, other than some quality control issues, is excellent, there are some glaring flaws that are hard to overlook. It’s a definite no go if you are in the US unless they can fix its network connectivity issues, but may still be a good option in other markets however, especially if you’re looking for an affordable device with excellent battery life.

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

The smartphone manufacturer ELEPHONE Communication Technology Co. Ltd. was founded in China in 2006. The sales numbers are limited and so are the number of reviews. The ratings are average (as of 2016).
80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
