Announcement. HTC Wildfire E plus - an ultra-budget smartphone and ... its sudden twins

No, I'm definitely going to get drunk today. Especially since it's Friday. After all, HTC was a good brand. People! What are you doing with her?!

It was a lyrical digression. Sorry, boiled up.

So. In Russia, the HTC Wildfire E plus smartphone suddenly appeared on sale. Very simple - Android Go, five-year-old chipset, etc.

And he reminded me of someone.I began to look for relatives. And found it. And grabbed his head. Because these are the twin brothers UMIDIGI C1 and UMIDIGI G1 announced last summer (they differ only in colors).

UMIDIGI G1

Those. under the once famous nameplate, we are offered a copy of the third-tier Chinese. Put out the light.

About the characteristics.

The smartphone, like its relatives, runs onAndroid 12 Go Edition. So, of course, it is not particularly powerful. Although, in fact, if it were not for the extremely weak chipset, then one could say that everything is not so bad. But MediaTek MT6739 in 2022 is ridiculous. 50-60 thousand points in AnTuTu.

Memory. 2 GB operational and 32 GB permanent. Plus there is support for memory cards.

The screen of stars from the sky is missing, of course. But fully large at least. Diagonal 6.52″ (103 cm²), resolution 720×1600 (269 ppi).

The battery is good, 5150 mAh. But no fast charging.

Cameras. The front has a resolution of 5 MP. There are two rear cameras, 13 + 5 MP. (UMIDIGI claims 13+2 MP rear cameras - I suspect someone mistyped it somewhere).

There is no NFC module, but there is dual-band Wi-Fi and even Type-C. The fingerprint scanner is not mentioned. So, most likely, like the brothers, he is not here either.

HTC Wildfire E plus is already on sale. They want ₽7990 ($130) for it.
