Cubot Compact Android Phone

[James_N]

I know there has been a few threads on here previously from people looking for a more compact android phone but with modern specs.

Just thought I’d link to this which has gone in global sale today https://cubot.net/pocket-global-launch.html

You have to order from AliExpress but for £107 it looks a great little thing.

Hopefully might help someone

I’m surprised too as I had a redmi 9 and it was massive. Real pain in the bum. Currently using an original iPhone SE which has a 4” screen and loving it so hopefully this new phone will suffice

Thanks, looks good. I've been looking for something to replace my slightly larger Sony compact. I'm still happy with the size, but the memory is near full and affecting the speed. This has double at 64gb.

Expandable too!

I confess I’m not overly bothered about cameras and things like that so not sure if the camera and cpu are anything half decent but my redmi 9 had 4gb ram and decent storage with NFC and I was happy with that hence going for this

The deal keeps coming up last one before was 2 weeks ago.

I got my old redmi 9 for 50 quid

Indeed I don’t think my redmi 9 cost much more than that. They are good value despite the rubbish camera on the 9 but definitely looking forward to having something smaller!

Did anyone buy one of these? I have a Cubot King Kong Mini 2 and while I love the size the camera is rubbish, as in worse than the Sony Ericsson phone I had 15 years ago.

If not, what <5" budget smart phone should I go for?

I purchased the cubot pocket and love it

I do browse quite a bit on the phone as I don't have a laptop or PC at home so it's a bit of a change but I'm liking it. Nice to have something compact that doesn't get in the way

Camera isn't great but I didn't buy it for a decent camera. I can snap the odd picture when I'm out and about if I need to and that's all I'm bothered about.
