LEAGOO just launched a new budget smartphone in the
Philippines, the M9. It highlights a modern looking design and "quad-camera"
setup on a budget. First, the Leagoo M9 has a sturdy polycarbonate frame with removable
backplate cover. In front, it has a 5.5-inch 18:9 screen with HD+ 1440 x 720
resolution.
Under the hood, it loads with a 1.3GHz MT6580A
quad-core processor with Mali-400 MP2 GPU. It is coupled with 2GB RAM and 16GB
internal storage. It also has a 2,850mAh LiPo battery to power the phone. On the camera part, it has
"four" cameras in total. It has an 8MP + 2MP dual-camera with AF and
LED flash at the back and a 5MP + 2MP dual-camera with LED flash for selfies.
However, as we all know, the MT6580A SoC has no real
support for phones with dual cameras. The result? You will only get a
software radial bokeh effect for this phone. Going back to the rest of the
specs, this device has WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth, GPS, and dual SIM (micro + nano)
slots. It runs with Android 7.0 Nougat OS out of the box.
