Umidigi is at it again producing fancy smartphones with the release of Umidigi A1 Pro. Built with an attractive aesthetic appeal, this budget device has specs that are not too impressive, better put as low-level.
One uncommon feature that you won’t find in a smartphone of this category that exists in the Umidigi A1 Pro is its USB Type-C port.
Umidigi also claims that the Umidigi A1 Pro is the first smartphone to get the new MediaTek MT6739 under the hood.

Software, Design, Display
Powering the LTE enabled device is Android 8.1 Oreo, which is not the latest Android OS.
The Umidigi A1 Pro was made to have plastic material covering the back, round edges and silver coated metallic frame. Vertically on the rear sits the dual cameras and fingerprint sensor which serves security purposes.
You might be wondering what’s in for the display but don’t expect much as it sports a not-too-big 5.5 inches screen size with a resolution not too high at 1440 x 720 pixels. The HD+ display has an aspect ratio of 18:9. The bezels are reduced and no notch exist on the device.
Performance, Hardware, Cameras
Like other budget smartphones, the Umidigi A1 Pro does not have powerful hardware for the best performance. Controlling processing activities is a MediaTek MT6739 quad-core processor. Graphics gets handled by a PowerVR IMG 8XE GPU.
For ease in multitasking between apps, the Umidigi comes with a 3GB installed. A less 16GB internal memory takes in your files and if you want expansion, you can use an SDcard of up to 256GB, so the small internal storage should not be an issue.
The cameras consist of dual rear shooters and a single front shooter. Combination of a 13MP and 5MP lens makes up the rear camera while the front camera is a 5MP sensor. The Umidigi A1 Pro camera has features that come with it including background blur effect.
While most specs on this device are average, the battery is not left out as its capacity is 3150mAh. A good news, however, is that it possesses USB Type-C port and quick charging, something uncommon for smartphones in this range.
