Cubot X16


At 6.2 mm the Cubot X16 is going to be one of the slimmest,  “affordable phones” not a lot of money will buy. Latest news tells us it will feature a scratch resistant display and feature gesture controls too.



There are a few features to the build of the Cubot X16 which make it standout from the rest of the low-cost crowd. For example the body is just 6.2 mm thick and is made of a lightweight Zinc Alloy material, then there is a 2.5D curved display and you can add in a scratch resistant feature to make the device all the more durable.

All the hints Cubot have released are pointing towards a phone that isn’t going to cost a huge amount of money (powered by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset), but one that might feature a more premium build and a higher level of ‘craftsmanship’.

The Cubot X16 will come in either white or gold and features a slim bezel design and a weight of 145 grams. The Cubot X16 is on presale now for just US$ 76.66 during the launch period and will increase to US$ 144.99 after.
