Short Review
- The NIU Niutek 4.0D features a compact design with dimensions of 127 x 62.9 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 131g, making it lightweight and portable.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Powered by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 512MB RAM, performance is adequate for simple applications but may struggle with multitasking.
