Design And Build Quality

The design in the Umidigi Power 7 Max is beautiful with some touches that make it look like an iPhone and its not much different from the Umidigi F3 which features a large screen on the front of 6.7 inches and a Polycarbonate body on the back with Curved Matte Composite Finish and with a length of 169mm and a width of 77mm with a frame that gives a kind of thickness of 10mm a wonderful feeling when held in your hand, despite its weight of 286g. If you ask me about the quality of the manufacturing, there is nothing to complain about it, it’s the closest thing to a flagship because Umidigi is always working to provide high-quality products to users all over the world at an affordable price.

the back finish offers an elegant, appealing, and dazzling surface with an anti-fingerprint featured, while the back came in 3 colors, Starry Black, Sunglow Gold, and Galaxy Blue.

Front & Back

In front of the device, you have a full screen of 6.7 inches with very thin edges on the sides, at the bottom, there is a very narrow chin, in addition to a notch Dot Drop display with a 16MP camera on the middle of the top for taking selfies and video chats, which we will talk more about soon.

At the back, you have a flat and clean panel from Polycarbonate with a premier look and curved edges, what catches your attention is the triple cameras and the flash in the upper left corner with a rather large bump, so you have to protect it with a cover, under the cameras, there is a large beautiful glossy writing to display the concept of “beyond dreams” opposite on the right the UMIDIGI logo.

Ports And Buttons

As for the ports, the phone comes with a USB Type-C port from the bottom with a speaker and a microphone, while the 3.5mm headphone jack is at the top. The buttons are, as usual, the integrated power button with a fingerprint sensor, the volume button, and the dual SIM with the memory slot. it should be noted that there is a customizable shortcut button on the side.

Umidigi Power 7 Max – Display Quality

Even in 2022, if you are talking about a budget or mid-range Chinese smartphone, it will most likely be the LCD IPS screen, and this is what the Umidigi Power 7 Max offers, but that does not mean that it is bad because it’s a large size of 6.7 inches in HD + with an aspect ratio 20.6:9 and a modest screen resolution of 1650 x 720 gives you bright, sharp colors and wide viewing angles that are more than great for consuming content visible on YouTube or otherwise.

In short, with the Power 7 Max, I will say that it’s one of the best screens in this category, you will get the best value for what you pay, a large and high-quality screen suitable for media consumption, whether you are watching a video, playing games or browsing the social media.

Umidigi Power 7 Max – Cameras

One of the main points of the Umidigi Power 7 Max is the cameras. In terms of their specifications, there is nothing to worry about, but the last word remains in the actual performance. On the back, you get a Triple -camera setup that features a Sony 48MP Primary Camera with f/1.8 and 1/2” image sensor, and a 6-element lens. For the rest of the cameras, you have an 8MP Ultra-wide Camera with f/2.2, FOV 120°, and a 5MP Macro Camera with f/2.4.

So far, the technical specifications are good, so let’s move on to the realistic performance, in photography under good lighting, the cameras can take really good pictures and capture a lot of details with beautiful color saturation, so I liked the cameras, but in the night photos, they lacked quality with that, still great cameras considering the price.

In the front of selfies or video chats, you get a 16MP sensor with f/2.2, and an impressive algorithm also, several modes to choose from. This camera is also used for face unlock. You can shoot 1080p HD videos at 30 fps from front and back cameras in well-lit environments with poor stability.

Umidigi Power 7 Max Performance

If we talk about performance, Umidigi Power 7 Max offers great performance in most of its basic and entertainment uses such as browsing the web, watching videos on YouTube, using social media applications, and even playing games, as everything worked efficiently and without facing any problems with stopping applications or high degrees.

CPU Performance

Well, Its time to expose Umidigi A13 Pro to some tasks that need more effort and there is nothing better than playing games with high settings, the conditions differ according to the application, game, or any type of program that need large resources, and because the processor used is Unisoc T610 based on Octa-Core with two fast ARM Cortex A75 cores at up to 1.8 GHz and six power-efficient ARM Cortex A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz. The SoC furthermore includes an LTE modem and TSMC in 12nm FinFET. This processor offers powerful performance and is fast enough to give you a hassle-free experience when doing daily tasks like gaming, watching videos, browsing, etc. Also this processor it’s present in many models of famous brands such as Honor Play 20 or Realme C21Y even Umidigi A13 Pro. So, Smartphone with this CPU at price under $180 is a good choice.

Thanks to the integrated Mali-G52 3EE GPU, the performance was good in games, but it depends on the type of game and its requirements, and sometimes there is a kind of delay, although it did not constitute an obstacle, and this in games such as CoD mobile and PUBG. However, all you have to do is play on the settings Low to medium.

Memory

Most of the applications run very quickly and thanks to the 128GB eMMC 5.1 storage space, it would be suitable for installing any application you need, with the ability to expand via a Micro SD card to 256GB. And for multitasking, browsing between applications was smooth because it is equipped with 6GB LPDDR4X RAM which is enough for most of the tasks that you can do with a smartphone such as keeping many applications or large games running in the background. In Short, for multitasking, this smartphone will give you a positive experience.

Playing Content

Playing the content on YouTube, was very smooth. You can play videos at a maximum of 720p at 30FPS without any problems or lag, And this is the highest quality you can get. Next, let’s take a look at the DMR information and Widevine security. I can tell you I’m a little disappointed with this because it’s only Level 3, so you won’t be able to get HD on Netflix or other streaming services. and this level maybe not be found on all Chinese smartphones without exaggeration. However, you can still enjoy Netflix and all other streaming services in 480p resolution.

Software of Umidigi Power 7 Max

The Umidigi Power 7 Max works on Android 11 with full-screen gesture navigation controls, dark themes, and a split-screen view, and contains most of the features that come with the system, the most important of which is the presence of all Google services, Making the smartphone experience smoother and more personalized.

As I always say, the stock Android system is best for cheap devices, with a simple and smooth launcher for better performance, especially since it does not contain pre-installed apps or games, I really hate this because of the large number of ads, Thanks here it is different.

Connectivity

Umidigi Power 7 Max is a dual-SIM smartphone equipped with a SIM slot that accommodates two 4G nano-sim cards that support all bandwidth offerings of 4G and 3G and so on, so its expected that you will get wide coverage for calls and internet, In addition to having a MicroSD card on the same socket.

To connect to WiFi networks, the Power 7 Max supports dual bandwidths of 2.4GHz and 5GHz, and of course, there is Bluetooth 4.2. That’s not all, there are also some basic sensors for a smartphone, including a gyroscope, accelerometers, and even an electronic compass. Also, has NFC so you can make mobile payments ( Supports Google Pay ).

Umidigi Power 7 Max Battery And Charging

Umidigi Power 7 Max has a built-in 10000mAh non-removable Li-Po battery that allows 12-15 hours of continuous use for surfing the Internet, Google, YouTube, and following social media, of course, the time is less when playing games and with moderate use, it will stay with you for a whole day on one charge it mostly takes about 4 hours to fully charge 10000mAh using Type-C with support 18W fast charging, is not very fast but better than the basic 10W or 5W. However, I can say that the battery was very good.

For a regular user, the battery will easily last for a whole working day, depending on your usage such as the times you open the screen, and the type of applications you run, also it suffices for more than 9h consecutive of watching videos. however, its performance was good and this is mostly because it is equipped with stock Android 11 and doesn’t have pre-installed apps, even the interface is simple without any complications or processes in the background and this is what limits battery drain.

Final Verdict

Umidigi Power 7 Max is a good smartphone and this is due to the experience that it will give you, given that it is a budget smartphone and the price does not exceed $175 with a stylish design and decent specifications in terms of the screen, cameras, and even the processor is powerful, And all this does not mean that it is flawless because cannot watch Netflix in HD resolution. however, the Power 7 Max will not disappoint you.
