Last month, China Telecom had announced its Tianyi No. 1 5G smartphone for an affordable price tag of 999 yuan, which roughly converts to US$ 153. Today, the device goes on sale in China through the online marketplace JD.com. The smartphone features a 6.5-inch HD+ display with a waterdrop notch. Under the hood, the device is powered by the UNISOC T7510 5G chipset — the same processor that powers the Coolpad X10.
The chipset is built using a 12nm process
and features an eight-core CPU that includes four Cortex-A75 cores and four
Cortex-A55 cores. There’s also a PowerVR GM 9444 graphic processor, taking care
of the graphical needs.
The Tianyi No. 1 smartphone comes with
support for SA/NSA dual-band 5G network and all the mainstream 5G frequency
bands in China and full Netcom 4G. There’s also support for HD voice EVS over
5G NR technology, 2T4R transmission technology, and Wi-Fi MIMO dual-antenna
technology.
On the back, there’s a triple-camera setup
that includes a 13-megapixel primary sensor, a 2-megapixel secondary sensor,
and a 2-megapixel tertiary camera sensor. On the front side, the device comes
with an 8-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling. The phone
packs 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, along with a microSD card slot
for expanding the storage capacity. It has a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor
for added protection. The device runs the older Android 9 Pie operating system
and is powered by a 5,100mAh battery.
