Cubot launching the X17S and Dinosaur phones soon, here are the details

Phone maker Cubot plan to launch two new phones later in the year, one being the Cubot X17S and the other the Cubot Dinosaur.

With a name like Dinosaur I thought of a large phone, with rugged design and perhaps even a large battery and even leather rear panel, but the phone in the photos looks nothing like that.

Instead the Dinosaur is a 5.5-inch phone with HD display, quad-core MT6735A chipset and design that is similar to the Xiaomi Redmi 3. The plastic bodied phone will support LTE bands 1/3/7/20 and comes with 3GB RAM, 16GB memory and Android 6.0 out of the box.

Other Jurassic features are Hotknot, 2 mega-pixel front camera, a 8 mega-pixel rear camera and 4150mAh battery.

The Cubot X17S looks like a few of the phones that Cubot already released with a metal chassis and dual glass panel design measuring only 6.2mm thick.

The X17S has FDD LTE support for bands 1/3/7/20, has a quad-core MT6735 chipset, 3GB RAM and a 5-inch 1920 x 1080 display. Android 5.1 comes on the X17S which we hope will see an Android 6.0 update in the future, and the thin phone has a 2500mAh battery inside.

Expect Cubot to launch both phones in April, which is shaping up to be one busy month for Chinese smartphone fans!
