Some Cons of the U2:
Elephone U2 has a very high price tag if we compare it with the quality and specifications of the smartphone. There is no audio jack in the phone. The display has no vivid colors. The LCD used is a cheap one. The performance of the smartphone is not up to the mark and can’t compete other mid-range smartphones of the market. Selfie Dual-camera has not met my expectations as well. And the overall design of the smartphone is irregular and sluggish. Final Verdict: My detailed review clearly implies that U2 is an expensive smartphone. The features and specifications provided doesn’t fit in with the other popular mid-range smartphone. People would tend to buy other famous brands like oppo, huawei etc. or even a used Galaxy S9 in this price tag. Therefore, my final suggestion is that the company should lower the prices to gain momentum in the market.
