Short Review

  • The NIU Niutek 3.5D features a compact design with dimensions of 118 x 62.5 x 13.5 mm and a weight of 108 grams, making it lightweight and portable.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which may appear basic by modern standards.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 512MB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for multitasking.
  • The camera system includes a 2 MP rear camera capable of recording 480p video at 30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The 1400 mAh battery provides adequate power for daily use, but it does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated, lacking many features found in newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is available in multiple colors, including Black, Blue, Green, White, and Yellow.
  • Special features are minimal, with no water resistance or stereo speakers.
  • Overall, the NIU Niutek 3.5D is a basic smartphone with essential functionalities.
